Hi Gemma.
Thank you for the comment on "Red Star Hole" and the kind words on my layering skillz. ;-).

I uses Photoshop CS and the layering are done with "select color range" and then the black background, instead of saving as a .png. The tricks are 1) Deciding on what fractals to use in the layer. 2) And to to use the right amount of Opacity on the layers. But, as you probably know, there are lots of tutorials covering layering out there.

krx ^_^

<3<3<3<3<3love you gemma<3<3<3<3<3

<3<3i love you so muchxxxxxx <3<3<£

Fine then, all your 5 pence pieces!! HAH!

Hiya Gemma! I am terrible about saying thanks...but thank you much-o for your very nice comments in my gallery! Hugs, Terri/MM

Thank you so much for your very Zorro like comment about Zorro was here. I had to smile and I liked it a lot.

Hey Gemma, thank you for the kind words about "A Rose of Many Colors." I really appreciate it! I am honored that you found it good enough to save to your hard drive.

Hey, Gemma. Thanks for stopping by a commenting on my page regarding my "keen eye for capturing the beauty of birds." That is an awesome compliment. I will try my hardest, you can bet, to keep posting quality images for you. Thanks again :)

Hi Gemma, thanks bunches for dropping by Freud Eggs hon ! I'm so glad you liked it ! :hug: You're not using scripts yet, are you ? You might want to check into those.

Thanks! Actually it wasn't that hard to do. All I did was go around the telescope using the magic wand and the magnetic lasso. Then I selected the inverse after that I used the wave filter to distort the background.

Thank you for your comments on 'A Rose of Many Colors,' I am glad you liked it

Kia Ora Gem, i am so pleased that Orange Gazania made you happy. Thanks for such an enthusiastic and lovely comment, it is most appreciated :)

Hi Gem, thanks for the nice words on my tulip pic.

Uh ... er ... small problem.

You know those keys you found? Welll ... they belong to the space shuttle that I was going to use to come get you at my "Dimensional Perspectives." :o|

However ... you will find the place fully stocked with 'fish food' and cookies. :oD

Enjoy, as I did your gracious comments and I'll just have to grab a cab or something to come by and pick you up.

Shouldn't be too too long. C'mon ... what's a light year or two?

Thanks for taking the time to place some kind words Gemma ... I do appreciate it. :o)

Les.

Annnd ... here ya go ... the 'keys' to making fractal flowers, as they are called, in Photoshop. (Similarly used in your fav'd piece "D.N.A." as well.)

Found ... here.

Quite a good and easy tutorial. Just add more 'stuff' as needed. :o)

i love u so much xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Gem, thanks for the kind words on Changing Seasons. If I showed you a picture of my garden, you would probably be rather underwhelmed. That's why I show you only pieces -- moments, you might say. :)

Thanks for the comment!! It's true that we did not pose for this shot. Under my direction, my friend took the shot while my other friend and I messed around on the bass.
I believe that we look so happy because we have that perfect peace and joy that only comes through knowing Jesus Christ. No matter what I do or where I go, I know, with out a shadow of a dought that I will go to heaven when I die. You've prolly heard John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him (Jesus) should not perish (death in hell) but will have everlasting life (life in heaven). See, God loved us enough so that, even though we have sinned, He gave His Son, Jesus to die and shed His blood for us, and then He rose from the dead three days later. The best way to say it is like this, "For the wages of sin is death,..."(Romans 6:23) Because you and I have sinned we deserve death in hell. But in the same verse it says "...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Romans 10:9-10, "...if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and beleive in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
That is why we are so happy. We know where we're goin' when we die. Jesus died, was buried and rose again to pay the sin debt for the whole world.
Thanks again for the comment!!

YO, thanks for the suh-wate comment on the horses eye. yeah, its pretty cool.

Hey Gemma,

Hmm, I guess "Break Time" was rather appropriate then, insofar as the coffee is concerned and your milestones reached?

;o)

Thanks for taking the time to view and comment, I do appreciate it.

Les.

Gem: Thanks for your comment on "Upside Down". Yes, it's a reflection on water. It was a very calm and sunny morning. It got a low c-index, but it's one of my favorites just because it happened naturally and no "tinkering" was required to make it look like that....Chris

Thanks so much for your comments on 'Tennessee Sunset'. I really appreciate your kind words! And good luck on that blown fuse :-P

Hey Gemma,

First, hope you got some sleep. :o|

Just kidding ... sort of, kind of ... as I am now seeing your comments posted on "Descent".

That silliness aside ... really like the observations you made, as the 'cat's eyes' present in that flame had me entranced as well. (And inadvertently drew my attention away from some of the pixellation I introduced via the post work. Oopsies, lol.)

Thank you for taking the time to stop by ... I do appreciate it sincerely.

Ta for now,

Les.

p.s. If you are interested in the 'challenge' ... just let me know, would be more than happy to send the parameters to you. :o)

Hi Gem, good luck with the reflections! It sounds a lot of fun.
I have just downloaded Gimp to try, so I'm off to find a Gimp tutorial.

Thanks for your comments on "3:13 And All's Well." I'm sure you're right that the tower would good with clouds in the sky. I don't think I'm skilled enough to be able to retain the appearance of authentic lighting if I Photoshopped a different sky in there, but I appreciated the input.

Thank you for your compliments on "chateau villandry"
kind regards
Japio

Thanks for the wonderful comment on my" Power Of Water". Greatly appreciated.
