You must be online right at this moment. I just saw your new comment on "Winter Blast." You'd be welcome to print a copy and hang it if you wish. At 1600x1200 you should be able to get a decently sized print out of it. By the way - welcome to Caedes.
I have the rare opportunity to surf at work - the office is deathly quiet and a girlfriend turned me onto the site. This is such amazing eye candy. I am blown away by the amount of talent that I have seen here. It's going to take me a while to digest everything, but I have to admit that I am thrilled that Caedes exists.
Thx for your comment on Johannes Vermeer .... It was my first art manipulation... manipulation yes the original has very much cracks. have a look at the original.

Michelle, again I thank you for leaving such a nice comment on my user information page. I've been in a whirlwind lately and have not been creating or uploading, but hopefully I'll be spurred on somewhat by your nice compliments. ;) It's very nice to hear you've had another look and enjoyed my gallery. Take care.
Hi Michell.. again... thanks for the message in my information page... im very pleased that you are enjoying my gallery... the little purple flowers are called china doll and they are smaller than a childs little fingernail.... :D
I'm very happy you like my gallery.
The paintings... well ...the credits go to the real painter ofcourse.. I just took a detail and made it a wallpaper. You got my source now ! ( I was even afraid to get troubles cause of copyright ) http://www.artrenewal.org/ thats why I molested the original so much ;-P
Hi Michelle. Thanks for posting to "Take a Bow". Yeah a video would have been great - I did get a fast sequence of still shots though. Among the best memories I have of this trip! M
Thank you so much Michelle. Your comment on "Snowy Ravine and your private message left me in a state of joyful shock. There are so many great artists here, and the inspiration is overwhelming at times;-)

Hello Michelle! Thanks for viewing and commenting on my image. This is just some more experimentation with Photoshop. I added the fish as a source for the ripple. The cat is from Georgia and the fish was last seen in Tennessee. This is done with layers and various amounts of opacity. I'm glad you like my Sleeping With The Fish image.

"In my mind's eye, I visualize how a particular... sight and feeling will appear on a print. If it excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph. It is an intuitive sense, an ability that comes from a lot of practice."

Thank you so much for the compliment on "Lakeside Early." I really appreciate your comments and kind words, Michelle. I tend to like hues of washed pastel and soft images, so I feel this is one of my luckiest captures to date. Thanks again, Steve

But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile.

Hey Michelle, thank you for the comment on (Salzburg by Night). Unfortunately I was only in the town for part of the day and I did not see the horse murals. I did take some pictures of the real horses that were all lined up with carriages near the large church though. Glad you enjoyed this image :)
Thanks for your kind compliments on "Great Snowy Owl." Yeah, the eyes are intense. The interesting thing is that it is completely fractal - no manipulations by me other than layering one fractal over another.
Hi again and thanks for the comment on (Salzburg by Day). I like your personal quote by the way, but I must point out that Wesley had not yet knocked out inigo when he said it, as I recall :)
And thanks for the comments on (Pedro's Palace) and (Swan Song). I'm not sure who does the majority of the gardening near Pedro's Palace but if I had to guess I'd say that was my grandfather also. I appreciate your feedback on my work, dig the new signature also :)
Hello Michelle, thank you for your nice comments on Hearts on Fire, and Forever, I am glad you liked them and took the time to leave nice comments...it is greatly appreciated..

Hey thanks again for the awesome compliments!! If you want to reproduce my work "Order in Chaos" in paint, be my guess LOL! It looks like it could take a while lol. Thanks again~ :)

hi thank you for commenting on something different much appreciated and in answer to your question the plastic srobe ball is sitting on a piece of white leather.
Thanks Michelle, for the nice comments on the little white church. I posted a further note with the photo. Thanks for asking, and your continued support of my work. I'm glad you like it.... Steve
Hi Michelle - I thankyou for your interest in "Mosaic fish panel 1" - there are 2/3 others in my gallery related to it. If you are interested there are a heap of great sites about mosaic making. One in particular is fun http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/mosaic/index.htm where you can design your own in advance. Have fun! PM me if you have any problems or questions!
Hi Michelle :) Thanks so much for your kind comments on "Caedes Carnage" I really appreciate it and am so glad to know you enjoyed it! Thanks also for your suggestions on future works...it keeps me inspired to create!
And also for the Elk photo. I can't believe they didn't do their usual 90 mph disappearing trick! The photo was just a tad blurred - my hands were shaking with the adrenaline! But it was too cool not to post! Steve
thanks for ur comments on "7 cidades", "the beauty of sao. miguel" , and "hidden waterfall"...and btw...it is a great place to visit...and i highly recomend you go there...but make sure you have a local guide or somthing because only they know where to go :^D
So glad you stopped by - thanks for leaving the nice comments in my gallery. Hope you have a great day down there in Phoenix. I bet you it's prettier and warmer than here, where we are stuck in an inversion - fog and only 10 degrees - brrrr.
Hi Michelle...thanks so much for taking a moment to view A New Day...I' m very glad you enjoyed the verse and the image is to your liking...much appreciated.:Pat.
Oh hi again...glad to see you like fudge too...thanks again...btw, I took a look thru your gallery...very impressive and diverse...love Peaches'n'Cream, Jim Morrison, and nurse shark, to name a few.:Pat.
Thanks, Michelle, for the comments on the photo of the Longview Bridge. Things never are as anticipated! :) The smoke stacks are just steam, used extensively at the ship yards. The bridges around here run from 50 to more than 100 feet above the water! When I first moved here from Arizona, scared me half to death! Woah! That's ten stories high! But one gets used to it. Anyway, thanks for getting ME started!!! Steve

Hello Michelle, tks so much. Yes actually they moved in when we moved out. It was a fallen candle and the young girl just made it out in time through the thick smoke and fire, I am glad she is ok. Thank you for your well wishes.

Hi Michelle, and thank you for your kind comment on "Haiku in light and dark" - there's something about cherry blossom that always makes me think of haikus... :-)

Hi Michelle, thanks for your nice comment on "Rocks and Waves" - mach appreciated! Yes, it was a lovely holiday there, when I look now out of the window I want to be there again...
Thank you Michelle for the comments that you posted for my New Friend photo. I'm glad that you liked it. I chased him around for about 30 minutes.

Hello Michelle. I would love to have trained Egrets to model for me. Alas I have to make do with the regular not keen to be near people type:-) Thank you for your comments about “Ripples” and “Grubs Up”.
Thanks, Michelle, for the wonderful compliment on "Fast Water!" I was sorry to hear about Loomy's demotion. I mean, perhaps a downgrade to steelhead, but GOLDFISH? Aw, man!!!
Hi Michelle, you are so kind to use such heartwarming words to express your thoughts on "Iridescence"! Could you smell them? Ha! Thank you Michelle. Sincerely, Marilyn
Thanks, Michelle. I made about 10 different versions of "Lilac Rhythms" (different designs and colors). Maybe I'll pop some of the others up sometime. Appreciate you taking time to comment.
Thanks Michelle for commenting on "Hillside".Macros are a challenge for sure and certainly have their drawbacks as in this case.I appreciate the comments..
Thank you too for you comments on my posting Sculpture in Shadows. The elements that you refered to "the reflection of the tree on the right and the stray twigs on the right" were the same points that drew me to the picture. You have a great eye.
Well, Michelle, here I am back again thanking you for your compliments on my photography. I'm greatful for your comments left on my posting entitled Triptic Trees. You have sharp appreciation for detail that some simply miss.
Good morning Michelle
Thank you for your comments on "Four waterlillies at Cooloola". There probably could be a story written, with a moral and a surprise ending perhaps :)

Thank you

Photography is not a trade - it is an art. It is more that an art.
It is a solar phenomenon,
where the artist collaborates with the sun.

Hi Michelle...thanks so much for taking a look at Remembering Grandma...I appreciate your thoughtful comments...yes, my Grandmother would like it...thanks again.:Pat.
Hi Michelle... thanks for your comment on Something You Dont See Every Day... im glad you enjoyed it.. it was amazing... they are actually in between the wall of the house.. you can hear the buzz and smell of honey inside... I had to balance on a piece of wood.. and hope i didnt disturb them when i took the shot... lol..
Thank you for the nice comment on the photo of the Bridge at Newport. Actually, the other bridge was on the Columbia River, and this one is on the coast. This bridge was first made famous (and caused Oregon to become a desired movie location) when "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was filmed in Newport. Jack Nickolson and his crew of escapees set sail under this bridge in one of the more memorable scenes. Steve
What a lovely comment about my Moon shot...it was one of those things...I saw it, I stopped the car...and I shot the moon!! smile...and it turned out...so this time it wasnt talent but good fortune that I saw that gorgeous object in the sky...thank youi again.!!
