It wouldn't have to look very realistic... you could even use an old doll or something, make it look really corny... look forward to seeing it either way!

Wish u all the best of the season. Merry Xmas & a very happy 2004 = D
Thanks for your support and encouraging comments, especially your question about Going Fishing 2. It was never a photo, just a Terragen render that I was trying very hard to make look realistic. You can imagine how happily surprised I was when you asked where that place was. =) =) =)
Thanks for the nice comment on the walking lane 2, and yes it was a very short stay in little Belgium but in one of the most beautiful and historical cities,you lucky one.
Thanks for the kind words on 4AM Insomnia. I have always been (and still am..heh) one of those "night people" and feel as you do about the still of the night. Sigh...it's just the next day that sometimes seems to punish me now. Vagaries of old age, I suppose. :-D

*crackle* thanks for your feedback on *crackle* base M - 5739 X. Finally got it up, and am working on 2nd version (thanks to Samatar's feedback). Glad you liked it!! *crackle*
Thanks for your comment on "Hello!" You're probably right about the robin being happy - it was by the seating area outside the tea-room at Trebah Gardens: beautiful garden surroundings and a good supply of crumbs from the tables!
I'm not always able to visit Caedes as often as I would like, but I try to be a good citizen when I'm here - I just wish I had the time to upload some more images! Glad everyone appreciates my comments!
Thanks for your comment on Old South (Atlanta). Most of these Library of Congress images of the Civil War are either too gruesome or static. I've reworked a select few that seem to evoke emotions and irony in spite of the passage of time.
hi mum42, i am 14 and i am also new to 3d images. i used a program called 3ds max 6. it was done a little while ago when i learned that you could take one object and form it into a lot of things. so this is the first thing i have made from one object, a square
Thanks for the nice comments on Canyon River Sunset. Our skies looked like that during some of the wildfires in the valleys across the mountains from the Bitterroot River. Scary times. Heh, maybe last night's snow isn't so bad after all. :D
Thankyou for all your comments on my "Forrest" pictures. It really is a beautiful place, we had very strong winds here from a cyclone off the coast and it had blown alot of branches down, this seemed to bring all the birds out in a flurry of activity; unfortunately they moved much to quickly to photograph. I plan to move near this area in a few months so hopefully there will be plenty more photo ops.
Thanks for the nice comments on (all glas decoration).And thanks for all the support on my work.Very much appreciated and good luck with the mosaics,mum42.
And as we wind down on the road Our shadow's taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines bright light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold and if you listen very hard

The Image was taken while I was setting up a small studio at my home. I saw my son friend standing there, and thought that the image would fit well into a series I was doing called the door series. I used an Olympus E20 set on manual. I took a light meter reading of the ambient light hitting the floor and set the F-stop accordingly. Them amid it at the door. The only thing I did to it on the computer IN P.S. was give it a defused glow and change contrast. You can adhesive the same effect by just stepping up by one f stop on the lens diaphragm.
I'm afraid you were not remotely close but I don't think anyone will be until they are in fact right... This is sort of a right or wrong thing. Tough to really be "close"
By the way, thankyou for the compliment on my website. ^^

Thanks for your comments on «Jacques»
This pic was taken at Oporto in Portugal; it´s Douro river and D.Luis bridge.
Do you know oporto wine? Ok, this is my town.
Thanks again,
César
P.S. Your galery is very unusual and beautiful; congratulations.
Yes, indeed. It is always interesting to see familiar landmarks on a site like this. I must say that the coming storm did contrasted very well with the solidity of the bridge and added drama to a common theme. OBTW, I once recognised Shoal Bay from a wallpaper submitted here and it was taken from the opposite shore and it was just total disbelieve that of all the places in the world, I could spot a little beach on the north coast. 8^)
Yes, these things can be so uncanny. I haven't had a car accident for years and when I did have one, I ran into the back of a guy I went to high school with years ago. Haven't seen him for over 10 years! I wish I didn't meet him under those circumstances though. ;^)
Almost once or twice and recently a boat driver started a bit too suddenly and I lost one of my lenses over the side - I guess you could call it a fish eye now. :)
Thank you Mum for the encouraging words on"sleeping Beauty & her Bodyguard". The day was so clear & the background was so evident in the water that nature made this shot! These ducks were so cute. Mr. Duck never left her side while she napped and people wandered all around.It amazed me!

Morning Mum. Thanks so much for comments you left me on Angel's Swim and Grow Crystals Grow. The white in the water was a concern of mine as well, but I said what the heck?! So, I look forward to seeing what you are working on. ;)
Thanks for your comment on "Delicacy"Mum42. I just used a normal photo with a program called photimpact using kaleidoscope effect and a bit of added colour. Just messin about. Glad you like it though... Cheers. Al
Thanks for looking at "Bal jynjy" and leaving a comment, mum42 :-) It does have a desolate feel rather reminiscent of Wuthering Heights now you come to mention it...
Thank you for commenting on "Hang About" Um Mum42 they are the right way up. Flying foxes hang upside down from their toes. I am very pleased that you like it though.
nah i was sorta joking about the sad face on "tribal council"... it doesnt bother me.. the ratings i get on some stuff usually makes no sense anyway.... and you are right about what you said about the image.. thanks for taking the time to write ;]
Thank you for the comment on my chicken picture, and for looking at my web site. I'll take into consideration about the picture you thought would make a good desktop!
Thanks for commenting on (Teach Your Children Well). Also, I renamed our mystery guy "Hypnotize". I'm glad you enjoyed the beach and thanks for thinking on a name :).
Hi Mum42: Thanks for your comment on 'SIBC" Glad someone else out there remembers space invaders...The manip. started off as a sillouette of an umbrella tree and it's flowers. Cheers. Al.
No one can say you don't keep your word. Bless your heart. Thanks sooooo much for everything today and for catching up with entertaining comments on She Hopes (I like what you see in that crystal), The Lighthouse Calls (I personally can't do without at least four corners! lol), Ahoy Vanna (with you on that one), and A Fine Mesh Of Things (sorry, Dizzy happens...it's not you).
Thank you very much for the nice comment on "all tulips". Putting them in the refrigerator is the first time I hear about. Here after the leafs (from the tulips) are gone in the garden we dig them out , than store them in a cool place( no fridge) in the autumn, about november planting them again in the earth, this for many many years. That is our method. Thanks mum.
Thank you mum for appreciating and commenting on Three Times A Lady. ;) I would love to see that home. These Morning Glorys will grow completely crazy here too and I'd like to find a good spot here for me to allow them to do that.
Thank you Mum for adding "True Loves First Kiss" to your favourites. Its an honour given all the wonderful and exceptional work posted every day. Thank you
Thank you Mum for adding "True Loves First Kiss" to your favourites. Its an honour given all the wonderful and exceptional work posted every day. Thank you
Thank you for your comment on "My Favorite Building" and "On the Floor." My favorite building is such because I love it's overall structure (it's mainly offices and has only two or three classrooms).
Thanks for your comments on "Area 51", however you are in error about "us Queenslanders"... I don't intend to share my power with anyone, no matter what state they come from... ;-)
Thank you for your good comments on Jam waterfall, sorry i don't remember what the sign said but in this waterfall you can walk and i think a warning for wet floor
Hi! I'll bet that's a fun class!! Thanks for the great comment on Chain of Pools. I'm tickled you added it to your favorites. Made it today when I got home from having Jaw Surgery. Made with Tylenol only. lol I've been missing your works. Isn't it about time you upload? (wink)
Same concept on Just Peachy and You? Both used the pinch filter pretty heavily. Thank you for leaving me the first comment there and I'm glad to hear you are peachy too. ;)
hi , again , once more i want to thank you for kind comments on my « moon&sun» photo. i am glad that you enjoyed it and i am happy to have satisfied viewer...
Thanks for the comments on (Lavish) and (Watercolors). I appreciate you checking out all my stuff lately. I never even thought of using (Watercolors) as a mystery image -- damn. However I think the water is pretty well defined if people were staring at to figure it out so who knows. But the idea of making an abstract from a recognizable photo gives me somewhere new to go with (What Am I?) because I've been stumped on an image so thanks for the idea :). Maybe I'll come up with something on those lines. Also, glad you liked Lavish, he's a beautiful horse~
Phantoms in memory!.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you Mum42 what I need to do is take it to my studio and rephotograph it with 2 soft boxes with diffused matt screens , I think I'll do that some time this week and repost it.But thank you for the useful imput and and your kind remarks.they are always welcome.
thank you so much for given me the highest score for my « field flower » image. i am very happy that you liked it so much. thank you for kind support and i really appreciate your opinion. hope to hear from you again...:-)
Great comment on teachable!! lol. I was thinking more along the lines of the sky is the limit when you are teachable but I like your idea better! That's why I LOVE abstracts. I wish everyone would say what it reminded them of. You get so many interesting answers.
Thanks for the comment on (More Than Meets The Eye), I'm glad you were able to crack the hidden image. Hopefully your eyes are uncrossed by now :). When I first started making it I would cross my eyes up and then I couldn't read anything for a few minutes after. But now I can easily switch focus to that or any other hidden image and then right back to normal in a second so I'm beginning to believe that they are, as they claim, good for your eyesight. Thanks again!
Thank you for the kind words on (The walking lane 2 in spring) and putting in our favorites.
I thank you for the constant support on my work.Very much appreciated,Mum.
Hi Mum, thank you for commenting on "Flowers For B.J.". Yes, these are azalea's. When we bought our house, they were in front of the house & didn't bloom, so we moved them to the side of the house & they seem t like it there. Thank you for commenting on the color range. I noticed that also. Have a great day!
Hi Mum. Thank you for going back and checking some of my earlier pieces, Redeem, Hook, Line, Sinker, and Glowing Places. I think you were doing that as I was cleaning house in my gallery. I intend to do some more but thank you as I am trying to sort out what I still want in there and what I don't. Comments make a difference and I really appreciate you taking that time. I think I probably need to stroll through yours as well. There's much I missed before I came here. Respectfully, B.J.
i appreciate the extensive comment on "branches of hell"... if i hadn't used flash i would have just gotten a dark blur since it was getting dark out, so i got what i could... thanks for the vote and glad you like it ;]
Hi Mum. I appreciate you taking a look at some of my older images and for leaving me such nice comments on Encore and Low Shoulder. You've been a big support and I appreciate you VERY much!
Thanks for taking the time to comment on 'Blue Mosaic.' Be warned. Mosaics have a way of getting under your skin. I taught myself how to mosaic two years ago and I still find myself eyeing flat stones and tiles and haunting thrift shops and dollar stores looking for plates to smash for material! It's great fun though. I hope you will post some of your work, I'd love to see it.
Thanks for your comment on "Sand Writing". As far as I'm concerned the cold weather can stay away for good!
Thanks also for your comment on "Driftwood". Ballina was nice, but nothing beats the West coast if you ask me. But it wasn't really a holiday, just a business trip for my partner, and all expenses paid, so you can't complain about that, can you?
Thanks for your comment on "Pelican". I'm pretty sure they were discussing who the freak with the camera was that was disturbing their otherwise peaceful day...
Your warm comment on "Thank You" is greatly appreciated Mum. Yes, it truly is ,my first manip. I really kinda ,sorta did it by accident. I was just playing around and the image happened! I really must start keeping notes of some sort! :)
"What other reason could there be to get up in the morning except to set ourselves free."
If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
Wow. That was nice to log on today and see all the wonderful comments from you on Middle Age, Art to Me, Looking For Montana, and Say It Softly. Thank you VERY much!! ;)

Thank you Mum42 for you reamarks and your insite on the painting.
Mum, you've been the best to take the time to explore my gallery and offer me honest, creative visions of my work. I appreciate you and again it was so nice to wake up to your comments on Make a Wish, Strut, Fried Green Tomatos, and New Day Waiting. THANK YOU!!

Hi. Thank you again for the wonderful gift of your comments on Shielded, Long Day, and Conched. ;) Also, I have to tell you I've had a sub. to Limericks for some time now and I appreciate the daily giggles there from your ever witty responses too!! ;)
Hi! Thanks for the nice comment on Indian Summer. I am tickled with the comment you left me on Gilt by Association and it was great to hear you added it to your favorites. The answer to your explore question would be "no". The computer has alot more control than I believe I would have on canvas. The only real fun I ever had painting was with fingerpaints. ;) And, we all know how those turn out! lol Still, that was a very high compliment to pay me. Thank you!!
I believe in the sun even though it is slow in rising. I believe in you without realizing. I believe in rain though there are no clouds in the sky. I believe in truth even though people lie. I believe in peace though sometimes I am violent. I believe in God even though he is silent.

Hello! I'm so glad you enjoyed "Cherry". I wasn't sure how well it would do, but I was quite surprised. Thank you very much for your kind words! -Mikey
Evening Mum. More gifts for me from you this morning. I feel like it's Christmas and your special and insightful comments are filling up my stocking. ;) Thank you this time for looking at Freshly Squeezed (have a great day tomorrow), Cat Lie Down (for seeing something there... ;) ), and Cherry Jubilee (of which I have a blueberry too and never posted ). Thanks again!!
And thank you also for the comment you left on "Electric Symmetry". At the time I was considering just the symmetrical aspect of the photo, but you're right...definitely a man-made spider-web. I really appreciate your feedback, thanks again! :-)
Hi. Been out of town. Sorry I didn't get my thanks to you sooner for all the wonderful subs waiting for me from you. I appreciate you commenting on Sight of Pink, Thank You Joost, Goofy Gus, and Joost's Easter Eggs. You've been an amazing teacher, giver, and friend. Thank you.

Bless your heart. Do I have THAT many submissions? lol I've been deleting, I promise.
I'm thrilled to read your comment on Gist of Twist (original). Of course, I appreciate your comment on Geo-Me-Oh too. I don't think geometry 101 is for me. ;)
Thanks for your comment on Caedes Icons. Very much appreciated. I hope you found your icon...
The whole thing took about 3 hrs. The right side is reflected. Nost of the time was spent finding icons.
Wow. This morning I unwrapped Veil of Camelia, Ne-Yawn, Patient Peach, and Mosa-ing along and the lovely gifts inside were your comments!! ;) Thanks as always Mum.
Good morning to you. Hope we're all in our places, with bright shiny faces. ;) I am with your latest comments on Rustoration, Irish Surprise, and Bedtime. Of which I'm really pleased you found a favorite in there! Thank you.

Wow. Thanks for seeing the best in my humble Treasured and A Day of Blue. Also, I'm glad you met my special friend Flitzorfly and greeted us both so warmly there as well. ;)
Hey mum thanks for the comment on (Burnin' Down The House). It was not planned, just caught my eye. Actually there was a similar reflection across every building as we made our way along for several minutes so I just had to get a few pictures of it.
And thank you for the vote of confidence on (Infinite Stairway). It was quite an undertaking, especially since I felt I needed to artificially expand the field of view to get the image I wanted (the bottom and left and right sides of my edit are completely "from scratch" if you look at it against the original picture), but it was lots of fun and very satisfying to complete. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
"Well spin me round & call me a propeller"! I certainly will use that one! l like that. I'll probably wear it out. Thanks for sharing that on Frisbee Returning and for your interesting perspective on Striping It Rich. Also, happy to see you found that image for just us girlie's at Sally Pink. My whole office is filled with wrapping paper! ;) You're a gem. Thank you!!
Thanks, Mum -- glad you enjoyed 'Clearing Storm'. I'm afraid you date me a bit with the totally 70s look, but come to think of it I do look back upon the the purple haze quite fondly.
Hi. Me again thanking you again ever so much for three more fun comments to read this morning on Pastel Splash, Air Dance, and Day In Day Out. The girls said I should have called Air Dance, School Is Out!! ;)
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. - Albert Eintstein + My image of choice Colourful reflections
Mum, your comments on Say Cheeeese and Conversation Heart were two more surprises for me this morning.
But, the best of course is the one you made yourself and presented to my girls. You can be very pleased. It's just right. All the way around, and around, and around! ;) The bottom one is bold and strong (oldest). The middle one is the gold that reaches and tries the hardest to keep that sisterly link in tact and balance. The beautiful pink/purple one is the youngest, just as sweet as the colors. ;) Great! Touching. And, we all thank you!!!
Thankyou for your comment on "False Hope". I don't know what it is, but because the sphere is made out of the same water as the ocean, I like to think the "metal" part somehow manipulates gravity; Maybe it is some sort of beacon for interplanetary travellers from a race long extinct...
Thank you for the comment on (High Noon - Color) Mum. My guess is that some people will prefer the color version and some people will prefer the black and white, but no harm in posting both :). I appreciate the input~
thanks mum for the comment on "articulation"... yes i've had numerous images compared to sparklers lol.... after finishing it though i sorta felt like i should have used a more interesting fill for the middle part, but it's not bad i suppose.. thanks again, i appreciate it ;]
Thank you for the kind words and nice comments on (tagets -tagets 1 and pelargoniuum).And i thank you for the constant support on my work.Very much appreciated,Mum.
Three more presents? Hmmm. I deleted five more last night. Anyway, thank you for your latest comments and gifts to me on Cloudy Spring (personal favorite), Blued Together, and Green Screen. I appreciate you!! ;)
Thank you for your kind words Mum on 'Fire Flies', much appreciated! Glad you liked it! I bet an money that you could do something like that! You work is much better than mine, i want to be able to what you do!

Well Mum. I'm finally here to thank you so much for the three new presents I received on Glassy Eyed, Birdseye View, and Show Up. ;) All of your comments are a great aide toward helping me figure out what direction I may or may not want to take with my art. A special gift indeed. Thank you!

Hello Mum. I like your new avatar. ;) Thanks so much for commenting so quickly on Fire Down Below and Chokin Art. I'm honored again that you found a favorite.
Thank you for the kind words on (Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay). Maybe you can try back when you're not clocked in at work :). That picture definitely makes me want to take a nap too. I never realized you were from Australia until you just mentioned that it's 11AM there (then I found it on this profile page). Strange, it's 9 PM here. Hope you have a nice day then :). Thanks again~

hey mum thanks for the comment on "rising spirits"... not sure if i can get the same feel without making it look like i copied what i did, but i'll see what i can do ;]
mum thanks for the comments on "axiom" and "thermal disturbance"... i'm not very familiar with tbob's work but from what i see he doesn't use the same effects or plugins that i do, maybe i'm wrong... glad i have established a style and you recognize it ;]

Thank you for commenting on 'Red Brushy Ground Cover.' I'm glad I finally know what it's called! Must be drought tolerant, as it seems to do well here in Arizona! Sure is pretty, I can understand why you couldn't bring yourself to take out the whole plant. If bottlebrush is slow growing, I should have planted it instead of lantana (which I understand is considered a vile weed in Oz). That stuff grows like crazy and it seems to always need trimming. Well thanks again. Always nice to hear from you.
Thanks for the kind words on "burgundy rose". I found it in the rose garden museum, yes it is a dramatic color, but intriging. All busses from all over Europe are now visiting the rose garden. In 2 weeks we shall have the rose garden festivities.
also thanks for the long comment on "into the fold"... i know what you mean about distracting, but i wanted to make it look interesting so theres more to look at than just a foreground and a background.. maybe should have made it a little more subtle but at 1:30am things like that don't seem to bother me lol
thanks Mum, for your lovely comment on my « gardenia » image , i am glad that i could help you in this way , so continue enjoying it. thanks for taking your time to enjoy my image.hope to hear from you again. :-)
thanks for the brilliant comment on "Peices Of 8" your input always means a lot to me
i dont know how often you check these but when you do - dont suppose you could let me know what a chalkie is could you? sorry to sound stupid it's just intriguing
thanks again
Hi Mum. I was going to PM you if I didn't see a post or hear from you soon. Hope all is well. Thank you for your latest and great comments on When Service Was Service and Golden Memory. Yes, Golden Memory was also made from an old amber child's portion plate I have. ;)
Hi mum,
thnx for the awesome comment and feedback to: 'Olympic Games - Final', I will think about it to send it to the comittee, thnx in any case! Really appreciate that.
Hi Mum, thanks for your comments on "Office Still-life"; I really appreciated them. And I'll see what I can come up with for a family room at midnight! :-)

hi mum42, thanks for your encouraging words on my « vains of life » images , i am glad you appreciate my work. thanks for your kind support. hope to hear from you again.:-)
I wanted to let you know somehow that I appreciate your comment on (Life In The Fast Lane) but it's imprtant to be discrete so I am instituting the driveby thanking:
Thank you Mum for the comment on "Excuse Me". Almost came to a screaching halt when I saw these horses along the road and that dark sky. Really appreciate it Mum:-)
Thank you, Mum, for all your support and your kind and encouraging words. Very much appreciated. :) And special thanks for being patient with me during my bout with this flu. :)
Hi mum...thanks for stopping by & taking the time to comment on my recent posts "Straw Flowers" & "Tangelo Lily". All comments are graciously received, warmly accepted & cherished for life! :))
and thanks for the comment on (Anty Em) as well. I didn't even notice him when I took the picture (just shooting Aunty Em's favorite flower), but I don't know how I missed him. Look at the size of that guy. He sure jumped out at me when I looked at this picture on the computer :)
Hi Mum. Thanks for appreciating "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" and "You Go Girl" and for the compliment left me on the later as well.They hang together on my hall wall of B&W oldies but goodies. ;)
Thank you very much for commenting on 'The Garden of Hope' and 'A Womans Worth'. I know the one is much better than the other, but thank you for commenting on both of them.
Hi Mum. It's me and that silly red smiley gal just above me here thanking you for your latest support on our collaborations. We enjoyed reading you as always and appreciate that you took time to share your ever insightful, fun thoughts with us on both images 1&2. ;)
Yes, I think that you are right. It is slightly blurred. It was taken at 400mm (effectively 640mm with the 1.6x multiplication of the digital) and at 1/125. So it's a bit of a miracle that it isn't completely blurred.
"What other reason could there be to get up in the morning except to set ourselves free."
If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
Thank you for the nice and helpful feedback on (She Sells...). I think I was so drawn in by the shell and particularly the little starburst it created that I didn't even really notice the top half of the image :)... Live and learn. I may post another sunrise shot from that morning, I was in such a beautiful spot~
I'm with Sally on the appreciation for the great comment you left us on our Collaboration #3. The oval just had to get into one of those! I also appreciate the insight and eye you have for leaving me different and wonderful perspectives on my new images, "A Run in With a Snocone" and "Guessed Out".

Hello Mum. Thanks so much for encouraging me on with your comment on "Winging It Blue." I think I had an all time record for trashing images in one day before that one finally came about. lol

Hello Ms. Mum. Thank you for another great comment left on Side by Side. I know it wasn't Father's Day in many areas and it was also more of a girlie image. It's just the song that reminded me so much of my dad. ;) Added the wish extra once the image was up. Hope you had a nice weekend.
Thank you very much for the kind words and comment on (rose garden 18-19 and coloma park 4).And i thank you for all thesupport on my work.Much appreciated,Mum.
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging comments on Broadway Curtain Call, Summertime, and Mysteries. I really appreciate your takng the time and I'm glad you enjoyed them. (By the way, yes I do have a weakness for complementary colors.) :)
Thanks Mum for commenting on Buttercup. To leave room for icons or not to leave room for icons. A question that will numb men's minds for generations to come. LOL.
And for your comments and inclusion in your favorites on Brocade. I am so happy you came up with a name for what I been doing lately. Fabric range describes it beautifully.
Hello Mum. Thanks for your comment on Lush Greenery. Feel free to view my gallery from time to time. I'll upload some green images specially for you. :)
Hi mum, tks for your sweet words on Bunchberry 2. They can be found all over the forest floors at this time of year in this area. Not sure about anywhere else. I think they are rather pretty.

Hi, there, favorite lady! Thanks for your kind and encouraging words on Flamboyant and Water Lilies. Very much appreciated and I'm glad you liked them. Most of my "abstracts" are actually cross-program creations between fractals and PS/PSP8, mainly because they are so much fun to create and I feel they get my ideas across better. :)
Hi, mum, and thanks for your comments on my latest uploads. Darryl's comment on "The face in the water.." surprised me: I started with a picture of a face so I never saw anything else in it! I find that at full screen it looks like an abstract pattern in the water, but that if I then walk away from the screen the face suddenly leaps into perspective. Thanks to Darryl I can see a bucket now as well. How confusing ;-)
Hi mum, thank you for the warm words you left re: "Where's Mom?". I have never seen an entire brood of baby mockingbirds before & they were on my deck!!! I was totally fascinated with these creatures & shot about 30 photos. They don't know to be that afraid yet, so I was able to do more than I could with any other of my birds. I sure had fun watching them. Cheap afternoon entertainment! lol
Hey Mum..Thanks for your kind words on Eye Drops. It's my first submission on this web site and it's good to see someone else who's slightly "twisted".
Hi Mum! Good to see you even if you weren't leaving me comments. ;) Thanks for the support on "Rose Renewal" and for taking the time to see something in "Green Intervening". If you saw a bug I sure hope you squished it! lol
Thanks for the comments on (Ghost Train) and (Wading Patiently), mum. Those two shots were not taken far from eachother (the tunnel that is, not the train). I had just hiked to the tunnel and was leaving when I decided to wade out into the river. I had come from "behind" me in the river shot, so I was never actually in those far woods. They do look pretty dark, huh. The ones on the tunnel side were not particularly dark, but I guess they could have been quite different :)
Hi! I'm glad you lava (ha) my "Lamp of the 70's" (I answered your question on the image page) and I, as I always do, really appreciate reading the comment you also left me on "Once Upon a Mind."
Hi Mum. I really should have gone with my first gut instinct on that guess. I saw it there, just have no clue how you turn something 1D into 3D so that's why I went off kilter to a 3D one. lol. Anyway, thank you for the latest comments on "July's Welcome" and "Happy Birthday Pim!" ;) It's not in the contest because it's 1D and there are wayyyy too many far more creative 3D images there.
Thank you mum for visitng & commenting on "Upside Down". A new flower this year, so hubby & me are trying to enjoy it to the max & taking all kinds of photo's! You comments are warmly welcomed & keep my camera shutter snapping away!!
Thanks so much for your ongoing support and encouragement, Mum. I appreciate all your kind words and good wishes more than I know how to say. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. :)
Thank you for the comment on (Deep Blue) and (Liquid Fire), mum. They were a worthy alternative to studying Business Law last night :). I'm glad you liked them both!
Hi mum, thanks for the comment on (Marina Mayhem). That was a very nice trimaran in the "foreground" that I saw around the port both days I was there. Good guesses on the mystery image but no cigar yet, nice to see the usual suspects back in action :)
hehe thanks for the comment on "....africa...." glad you like it and i hope ive found something i am good at when it comes to pictures. my photography skills and terragen skills seem to need some work lol and thanks for mentioning the map of africa i wasnt sure about how visable it was if at all, under all those other pictures
Hi Mum. Thanks for the new title on "That's Enough Spiders!" It's the title I'm entering into the contest. ;) What's the worst that could happen right?
HI Mum: Thanks for your comment on "Evil Goldfish", This photo actually started off as glowing embers in my fireplace. Don't ask me how it got to be an evil goldfish, but it did. LOL.....Time to take more medicine I think....... Hmmmm.Cheers. Al.
Tks Mum for your comments on For Signpainter. Sorry I have no idea what kind of flowers they are, they are more wildflowers appearing off the edge of my yard.

Mum! Hi there. Still raining? That was a nice compliment you left me on "Pay it Forward" .It's always extra nice to hear from you on the ones I really enjoyed making. My goal for each one but you know how that goes. ;)- Your two latest are from Roll On Down, yes??? My guessing skills have gone to the dogs here lately. lol
Thanks for your comment on Bush Colour Mum. I really liked the looks of this one too. It reflects some of the amazing colour we have in this amazing country. Cheers Al.
Tks Mum for commenting on Macro Mini's For Mimi. This has been a fun wk dedicating my work to all of my Caedes friends!! Nothing like bringing that special warm feeling to someone.

Hi mum..thanks for stopping by & commenting on "The Grass is Always Greener....".This horsey was a photo waiting to be taken. Your words always appreciated! :)
Thank you mum for your comments on "before the storm" & "Quack" When taking quack the little duck was such a poser he loved having his pic taken thanks again your opinion always very much appreciated

Tks Mum for your comments on Flowering Radishes. I am so glad you liked it. I was so surprised with the beauty in my failing to pick my radishes, lol.
JuneBug
I hope your dreams take you... to the corners of your smiles, to the highest of your hopes, to the windows of your opportunities, and to the most special places your heart has ever known.
Yes, tks Mum, it was awesome. I am glad you liked Hello World!
He was soooo cute and let me take as many pics as I wanted. I was close enough to use macro and to touch him if I wanted. I didn't as I was afraid to scare him off.

Hi! You okay? Thanks so much for checking my image for Joost and Eliane "34 Years Strong" and letting me know it works in the way I was hoping for. ;) You're constant encouragement and unique way of commenting means alot to me.

Thank you for the comment on one of my pictures. I congradulate you on not having snow in Sydney. I mean sure it is nice to look at...but I don't appreciate it much. One of my sisters just came home from 2 years in Brisbane, and she informed me of the lovely weather all year round. I would love to visit myself!
Thanks for taking the time to comment on Double Take, Mum. I always appreciate your kind and encouraging words and I'm so happy you enjoyed the image. (By the way, I just now figured out how to do that little trick with the centers of the flowers....wheeeee.)
Thank you for the kind words on -old flanders farmer's house-Much appreciated,Mum. And the farmer's house is built and protected in S-P-Leeuw where i live.
:) Thanks for commenting on Lightning Dragon! I'm glad I got a tip, I'm sure it will help! I think when I get photoshop or some program like it, I'm going to experiment on a render for it. Thanks again!
Tks Mum foryour comments on Pollinstation. I am glad you liked it. I am quite limited in my shots as I am home with the 3 kids, I don't drive yet (working on it) and I don't go anywhere.
JuneBug
Hey there mum, thanks for the nice comment on (Lost Lake). I'm glad you liked it. I am becoming frustrated with my lack of time lately because I have gotten no pictures to post. Hopefully an opportuntiy will present itself soon :)
Thanks Mum for the lovely comment on "Hanging Out to Dry". I was really fortunate to be in the right place at the right time & am equally blessed to have a Butterfly Conservatory close to home! :))
Thanks Mum for the wonderful comments on Along The Creek and Doofus. I really appreciate you taking the time and I always love to read your comments. Thanks again.
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.
well mum, when I'm not at sea I just don't get the pretty pictures :). So, then it seems I'm always on the boat when actually I'm always working! Thanks for the comment on (Regatta). I'm glad you liked it. I have a picture zoomed in a bit closer but I liked this one because there were just so many of them. The other picture isn't a "close-up" because I was so very far away, and doing about 30mph when I took them, but if you want to see it I can send it to you or something. Thanks again!
Hi Mum Thanks for looking and commenting on "Rivers of Golden Light". What you are seeing here is very small yellow flowers that bloom for about a week and then the whole plant dies, the environment there is quite inhospitable and they only bloom right after a good rain. The Post Mistress in Mitchell Ore. calls me to let me know when they are blooming and I make a quick 200-mile trip to photograph them. The soil is a reddish clay deposited during a volcanic eruption millions of years ago. There seems to be enough dirt in the gullies to support the flowers but not on the hills themselves. Thanks again for looking I'm grateful.
Tks Mum for your comments on ~Perfect Combination~ I am glad you enjoyed it! I think it is quite dainty, and at first I thought it was daisy's but the stems were so tall and the flowers were smaller so I had to investigate further.

Tks Mum, you are soooo right. I never saw it like that, and now I love my fractal even more since it is so valuable, lol. Tks for commenting on Check It Out.
JuneBug
Thanks for taking a look at Reverence and Trail of Tears, Mum. And special thanks for such a wonderful compliment. Very much appreciated and I'm so happy you enjoyed the images. :)
Tks Mum, I am glad you liked my little baby! Whatchya lookin' at? It was a fun shot to do since he let me get so close and take as many shots as I wanted.
JuneBug
Just what the doctor ordered! Thank you Mum. Simply Saree sat on my desktop a looooong time. I'm very happy to know that you saw what I was hoping to achieve with it.
thanks yet again for your nice comment on "chlorophobia".. glad i could change your mind about the sepia being the best.. thought i'd use green since i rarely do
Hello witty one. Thanks so much for giving your viewpoint on "Ring Around the Rosie". I love pink and I like shiny too. ;) In fact, I could even go pinker AND shinier. Consider yourself on alert! lol
Thanks Mum, for the very nice words to : 'Feeling Static' , really appreciate your support to my work. And you've got your answer on the Pictures 'forum'
Thank-you for all your nice comments on Dizzy, Dizzy Revisited and Homer's Donut Odyssey (every pun intended). I see a theme here, perhaps a comp on virtual food - no calories??
thanks for your comment on "the light inside"... i was going for a dramatic effect where the two black ends meet.. i could have obscured the glow but that would decrease the effect of the image... in my opinion that is, but i do know what you mean
Thanks for your comments on "At the Dying of the Light". I'm glad you liked it. The light at this time of day changes so quickly. I shot almost 1 & ˝ rolls of film to get the lighting just right.
Thanks for your nice comment on Blue Velvet, Mum. Very much appreciated and I'm so happy you enjoyed the image. (And glad someone besides me remembers Woodstock.)

For the support on "Eliane", "Rocket's Red Glare", "Blowing Off Steam", and "Relative Humidity", I am very happy to see and hear from you. I hope all there is settling down a bit. Have missed you. Still reading along with you and Mythica. So far I've yet to figure out what's going to happen next. That's a compliment. ;)
Hi Dear Mum. Darryl and I thank you for the terrific support and encouragement on our contest entry, "Song of the Flower XXlll." I thank you too for leaving me comment on "Boo!". lol
Hello. Girlie, swirlie, and admittedly easy is a nice relief sometimes and "Funfetti for Ruby" was actually an old pitiful image, revised and revived a bit. I was in a time crunch! lol Thanks girl. I miss you. Think of you lots.
Thanks for your comments on my recent images. I did delete the earlier versions of flight of fancy, because they didn't score very well and were definitely inferior to the more recent versions. However if you really wanted to see them I still have copies so I could email them to you.
Hi Mum. I have? (blushing) Well, I'll be. Thank you so much for that comment on "His Star." I'm chosing to take that one most seriously and I think I'll just go have a great day thanks to you! ;)
Thanks Mum for your comment on Road of Purple... im very glad you liked it... Jacaranda trees always look beautiful.. and every year i always say "I have got to take a photo of the road"... finally got it.. lol.. its really a lovely part of the road.. the trees usually form an arch across the road and is in more bloom than what it is this year... thanks again and i appreciate your support..
Hello again, thank you for your comment on (Getting Late). I was thrilled to find that view out over the city and really happy with the way some of the pictures came out :). Glad you enjoyed this one~
There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is always the same.
Chinese Proverb........I think you'll really like Chinese Lion. roar.
Thanks for looking at and commenting on 'hill to the sun'. You encouraged me to keep up with terragen, and I'd like to, but . . . I got a new pc, and who wants to risk a brand-knew pc by downloading something that big? But thank you for the encouragement. I'll keep creating in some form or fashion.

Hi. You are here early. ;) I hope you made a wish while you were at "After All." Thank you for your continued support. That sat in a "?" folder a loooooooooooong time! lol
Thanks for stopping by my gallery. But it seems your car was double parked and they towed it away. Yes, Maam, you are a valued customer. No, Maam, the studio cannot reimburse you for out of pocket expenses. Stick it where, maam? ... Ah, I see, ... Let me make some calls. Would you like a cappachino while you wait.
(OK, I'll bite ... what's a "Chalkie?" ... Is that like one of those scantily clad referee girls at rugby games? ... Good work if you can get it.)
Thank-you for your generous comments on "Bronze Sphinx" - I was quite happy with the way it turned out too! THough didn't mean her to look too spooky! Thanks again.
Thanks Mum (gosh, it seems odd to type it - I'm used to saying it!). I prefer my dragons with sweet thai chilli sauce and garnished with a little coriander...

Thanks for your comment on "Sandpattern", Mum - I'm always wary about uploading something this different from my usual style, so it's good to get some feedback :-) The pixellation seems to be a result of the filter but I don't think it detracts too much. I've tried the same settings on a picture of leaves and get a much lighter feel and even more detail - I may upload it sometime..... Thanks again!
Thanks, Mum. Fractal Explorer, Tierazon, VChira, Ultra Fractal, and a host of others are all free or shareware downloads. You can easily look them up in Google. Again, thanks for taking time to comment on "The Dragon." Have a great day.
Thanks mum42 for your words on '12 Apostles' - while the image may give a sense of loneliness, just behind me were plenty of tourists, in fact it was a pretty busy day up Lion's Head...
Hello Mum, Team Graphics Galore thanks you for your kind words and support on our contest entry " Wheat field to dessert tray". We thought three heads would be better than one, and, it seems , you agree. This was really fun for us and we're glad you enjoyed it. Thanks again for taking the time to look, comment and vote.
Mum, thanks for the comments on "Dragon Fountain". I agree about photoimagery's onion shot! The colors in both are very similar. Thanks aslo for the comments on "Filtered Moonlight"!
Mum, thank you for the huge support on "Going Home." Sometimes knowing what I want to do and getting there is quite a challenge. I was nervous about that one. Your comment made a difference. Most appreciated.

Hello Mum. I'm sorry for not responding to your comments sooner. I've been very busy traveling and working for the last three weeks. I have been to Poland, France, Germany, Belgium, Japan and Taiwan. My days haven't had much spare time in them. Thanks for the lovely comments on "Sprouting Onions".

Hello! How are you today? I'm glad that you liked my Saint Joseph photo. Thank you for voting and commenting on my image. This church is being restored. It was built around 1840.

Thanks Mum for the compliments on my Simple Background! It lost quite a bit of quality in the compression...and it's visible in some monitors. But these are still fun to make!
Hi Mum... thanks for the comment on Christmas Star........glad you liked it... Merry Christmas to you and your family... (its going to be a hot christmas again this year..)
Hi, Mum! Had a moment to really have a look at your gallery. Awesome! I'm so impressed. Makes my fingers itch to try some 3D software. What software are you using?
A warm hello and I've missed you. ;) Thanks so very much for catching up with "Something in Red," "Something in Green," "Gateway to Long Lost Love-Manip.," and "Jacqueline's Journey."
Mum, I'm with you on the cappacino! I appreciate that you found, commented on, and gave "Fall Chain of Pools" the honor of being a favorite. I'm tickled. ;)
Mum, I assume that you realize your new avatar looks like a McDonalds french fry box ... but did you realize that if you can prove that you are making people think of fries you would be entitled to a cut of the profits ... I will testify on your behalf ... you can depose me for a mere biggie fry ... just pitch it to 'em like a stealth advertising campaign. you could start your own company, send forth your minions, your avatartans, to usurp the diets of the unwary. .. It's starting to sound good, admit it.
Hi Mum.. thanks for your comment on Waiting For Spring.... glad you liked it.. thought it looked like flowers and sunshine.... hows out where u are.. its been hot and humid up here... had some really good storms... :D
Sydney City Roosters, love the team name! You live in Australia? That's amazing, I think Australia is a neat country, I've always wanted to tour Sydney.
Hey mum, thanks for the comment on (Reflecting on Christmas)! No tattoo... I think what you saw is maybe a branch on the tree that was in between the ornament and my arm. Haven't been through that phase yet I guess :)
Thanks Mum for viewing and commenting my two Christmas Eve pictures! Glad you found some (Swedish) Christmas feeling in them. I think the shining victorian angel is worthy of a bit more attention. Glad you liked it.
By the way, "Winter again 10" is also a capture from Christmas Eve. Did you see it..?
Thank you Mum, for your comments on the Christmas day contest entry. For each of us, our traditional trappings of the day are precious. Glad you found beauty in mine.
Hi! Gosh it's good to see you! ;) Arne and I thank you most kindly for your praise on "Bird Cherry Collaboration." Yes, I'm having fun. Hope he is too. I'm also happy to thank you for your encouragement on "Arc of Youth-Rework." Last but no least, "Introducing Miss Poppie." I am very happy you like her too and put her in your favs for safe keeping. ;)
Hi there. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you. That's 3 from me, 2 from Arne, and 1 from Alexis! ;) For your comments and support on "Miss Orchid," "Miss Lily," and the oval is back (yes!) "Wall-Painting." This teamwork is a joy for me. I'm very happy to hear you like what's being posted.

Thank-you so much for your comments on 'All Eyes on You' and Happy Valentines. I really enjoyed making the eye and plan a new one - keep an 'eye' out for it!!
Hello Australia and to my favorite teacher. ;) Alexis and I thank you for the support on "Introducing Miss Tulip-Collab." Steve and I also appreciate your very kind words on "Two Birdbrains-Better Than One?" I had a rash of them there, eh? lol...breathing now...I think.
Hi there! ;-) Again, I'm most appreciative of you taking the time to look for the best in "When Orchids Won't Cooperate." I know the thumbnail didn't do it any justice. ;( I did enjoy that work very much.
Hi. ;) Here goes another math challenge.
One thank you to you from Steve for your compliment on "Oceanfront Properties-Bay Window Included." ;)
Three thank yous from Arne for your terrific support on Orchid collabs. 14, 13, and 11!
And, four thank yous from me for all of the above. Most of all and as always for knowing just the right time to pop in and share your support and encourage me on forward. You could not have picked a better time!
Thinking of you often.
Hi Mum. Arne and I have many thanks to you for your comments on Orchid-16 & 17-collabs. These have been so fun. They all seem to have their unique personalities. We appreciate that you take the time to see this as well and point out what is special in them to you. ;)
Hi Mum ! Thank you for all your nice comments on the orchid series, this time on # 10 !
I appreciate your support of the images B.J. and I have collaborated on !
Thanks for your comment on my posting "hand". ... I agree .. it would fit well into the things you just don't see every day. ;) A very talent artist created the hand .. and I was fortunate to have been able to see and capture it. Glad you liked it.
Hi there. So, does that mean hubby has to take up surfing instead?! ;-o Thanks from little bit on "Catch of the Day!" Arne and I thank you for the special comment on "Orchids 19-Collab." I thank you for all the other comments this morning on my latest manips. I guess putting the cat to sleep is a better judge than the c-index? ;)-
Hope you are all well. You are thought of all the time.
Thank you very much for your comment on orange. I'm very glad you liked it. Yes, it does play with the eyes, I tried to think of some crazy title for it but couldn't come up with any that i liked.
We thank you for the support on "Sydrafrika-Collab." and "Whirlwind-Collab." Indeed the later was a quirky risk! lol ;o - Arne & B.J. I thank you too for the nice comment on "Sunny Disposition." ;)
hey mum thanks for the comment on "eccentric".. that one was much overdone on my part, but i couldn't let all that time be wasted.. glad you liked it ;]
Hi Mum. Our thanks go beyond words for all of your wonderful support on the entire orchid series. On #23 and the Finale, we once again have enjoyed reading you and thank you very much for taking the time to leave us such kind words. - Arne & B.J. ;)
Good day Mum. I did my own hand test and I'd bet Arne will do it too once he reads your comment on "Introducing Miss Anemone-Collab." lol We of course also thank you for the kind words on "Orchids 21-Collab." BB and I appreciate that you enjoyed Marilyn's Birthday Rose and I thank you very much for giving me the thumbs up and move into your favorites on "Mother is Blushing." ;)
Hi. I am trying to think way back and remember your peacock. ;-? I'd say go 1/64th up on your contrast so you could say you changed something and repost! lol I want to see him! We appreciate you stopping in on our "Crowning Glory-Collab." ;) They are cool birds indeed. Arne & B.J.
Hi Mum ! I very much appreciate your kind words on the colored mouth-blown glasses I captured - "Glass Art 1". Glass-blowing is an old industrial tradition in Sweden and you have maybe heard of Kosta, Boda and Orrefors, the three most wellknown glassworks here. I´m a bit curious about what kind of glass mosaics you are working with...any pictures of them..??
Thank you so much for commenting ! -- Arne --
Thanks for the comment on "Agains all Odds". I'm not sure what to say... ^_^ I guess it's both a good and a bad thing to feel like that. ;) I'm leaning to the positive interpretation for now.
Hi! I noticed I never commented back so decided to now. Thanks for the comment on my profile and "psycho physh" is an awesome image. =) I love the title for it too.
Thanks for the comment on Balls of Fire. The blue is the ambience of the reflective box around the sphere...I couldn't really get it much darker without ruining the effect. I will try and work round it for a new image, which I'll eventually get to. Glad you like it.

Heya Mum :D
Thanks for commenting on *Mystical*...I'm very pleased you liked it ^_^ and your feedback was much appreciated, too!
Have a wonderful day :]
Hi there. Drought again? ;( Same deal here on the flip-side as we had last year it looks like. We are drenched! Every day it has rained for two weeks. Sending that angel back your way!!
Arne and I again are most appreciative to see your comments and support on three more images. The bleeding hearts you will normally see on one stem with a cascade of them hanging down. They are small in perspective to Arne's single shot. I do sneek my ovals back in every now and then. Should have known you were going to catch me. lol "Arne's Rose" was a good opportunity for it since he had that macro background for me too.
I'm back. Which means so are you. Which always means I am relieved to once again hear the confidence you so generously give to me and I most genuinely appreciate. ;) "Miss Hibiscus" was one I was excited to get to. I loved my friend's angle and light on that one. I wish that person would have taken some public credit and I know my thanks are from both of us.

"Glow Blossom," "Blooming Cascade," and "BB's Redemption." Thank you again. Two thanks extrĺ from Arne and one from BB this time too. We enjoy hearing from you! I suppose you're right. I haven't yet found the cure for that abstract itch. It creeps in on me when I least expect it to. ;o

Hi Mum, my oh my, what great comments you left on my doorstep today! I am glad you liked "A Glad Morning"! It pleases me very much Miss Mum! Sometimes our instincts are effective and other times not, but this was a lucky shot, in the sun! Sincerely, Marilyn

Hi Mum! Thank you so much for checking out, and commenting on "Back to the basics". Your comments and suggestions are a great help! Thanks again. =0) Randy
Hello Mum. Rob and I thank you for your support and nice comment on "Slipper-y When Wet!" I just have to throw in a green/purple one every now and then. ;)
Hi there. Thank you for the comment on the chilli pepper. Arne and I laughed too. It was initially what I thought too. Perhaps it helps to have that funny assurance that it is at least different? Thought I'd give it a go anyway and yes, I also did a framed version. Not sure if I'll upload it or not.
Hello Mum. Arne and I are back once again to thank you for the very kind support on the violet images and the two sculpture images. I appreciate very much that you shared the story behind the violet quote. I would be happy to try to place that quote on a favorite image of yours and send it your way? It would mean alot to me to be able to make you something special and give back just a small something for all you've helped me grow here.
Hi. How's my favorite teacher? ;) Arne and I thank you for the kind review of "Tagetes-Collab." I thank you for recognizing the effort on "Pinkies-Revisited." ;)
Look at me here I was I gave you a comment.If you love the shows 'Star Trek Vogager', 'Star Trek Next Generation', 'Star Trek Enterprise' and Deep Space Nine' please tell me.

Hi. Thanks so very much for the support on the little pink trimmed church. I appreciated getting the permission to do that. I thought it a rather unique little show of architecture and presence. Odd and pink have caught my eye here lately. ;) That is not to say I caught "pink eye!" ;)-
Thanks a lot for your nice comment on "Dunes" I am very happy you liked my painting. I appreciate your critique about the little white spots at the edges of it, I should have been more precise when I put it in the frame, few more cuts would be a plus... Well, I'm learning. :) Thanks again and see you in the net. :)
Hi Mum. I'm happy to see you found Elin's angel. She found such a lovely setting and that blue heart for the extra "touch" made it hard for me to resist. The blue adds an extra comfort and she's been on my desktop alot lately. ;) Glad you like her too. As for the contest image, it was made from a program I've used before here but those images did not remain on the site so I was hoping that would be just different enough to fool others. Not knowing who else was posting made it a little difficult to know what to post. Turns out I didn't fool them at all! ;o Should have scanned a paper clip! lol
Thank you very much for your comment on 'Set In Stone.' It means alot- especially because I was trying to do something on the level of LIttle_Art_Girl with her element series- and that is hard for me to measure up to! :)
Thank you for your comment on my photo "Hope?" People worked hard to overcome the tsunami tragedy, and these children were provided with new uniforms and shoes to attend school forgetting what they faced. With help of every one including from countries like urs we are in process of rebuilding our nation again. My countrymen are nice people with compassion and caring for all and I'am proud to be one of them. Thank you!
Hi there..and thank you for such nice comments, and feeling brought out by my photo of the Old House Kitchen....I imagine many many tales were told there once upon a time. I spoke to the daughter of the parents who lived there long long ago....and she can tell a lot, I need to go see her again, it was soo interesting..thanx again
Hi! I agree that you will be at a loss without gloss! ;o My vote is still for the triplets. Are you going to "play" some more? It's beginning to look alot like Christmas thanks to you. ;)
Dear Friend. Thank you for your kind comments on my shot "Cradle of life". I find photography is a fascinating journey when I come across photo opportunities like this. Thank you again.

Thanks Mum for your great comment on Another Christmas decoration for your trees... glad you liked it... It's been very hot the last couple of days.. and its supposed to reach around 43 this weekend.. the hottest Christmas for us on record... YUK!! should be cooler where you are.. =)
Hello Mum! Thanks for stopping by and leaving such kidn words on ~the painting~. They are much appreciated. This lady was quite an inspiration to me. I was fascinated by her lifestyle and her friends (you know how young kids are :). Anyway, while playing, ~the painting happened~ I wasn't trying to do that. Sometimes accidents are not all that bad!
~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~MERRY CHRISTMAS~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hey there! Thank-you for your comments on 'Trilogy'. I 've had some constructive feedback on this image. I know a couple of fixes, and I wasn't 100% on it either. But enough to uypload it for feeback! So thanks - it's up the flagpole - and I am working with it further. Cheers,,...
Hi : D!

Kia Ora Mum, thank you so much for commenting on my Shady Glade. I was a bit bewildered by the previous comment :)
I am glad you popped in because it led me to your Gallery - you have great talent and it was a pleasure to browse through.
'Sopikey' - Now I'll use that word for good NOT evil!!! I've eaten eggs like that - should be all soft then 'crunch'. I too will be better next week, oh yeah! THanks for the feedback on 'Lilac Feathers! Cheers..
Thanks for your nice comments on "Harbour Storm" and well done on walking the bridge. I'm terrified of heights so I find your achievment very impressive:) Cheers, Kelcey.
Me again, I'm so honoured that you have taken the time to have a look through my gallery. Your comments are lovely and very much appreciated. Cheers, Kelcey.
Thanks for your comments on 'Jewelsmith'. I don't have any fractals to use! I'm fractalless! You wouldn't think that the background was made out of a stamp in Photoshop - that I made from a photo of a strawberry I took!!!! All I can say is layers, lots of layers, and blending modes!!!
Hi Mum, how very very nice to see you again, and to appear on my page is a treasure indeed! It has been so long time since I have seen you, and I miss you! You are such a talented artist, and are now depriving us here at Caedes of the pleasure of viewing your wonderful work! Many thanks for viewing "Contemplation", as it was a real treat to read your comments again, and as you know, they are deeply appreciated indeed, thank you again Mum! Sincerely, Marilyn
Hey Mum...thanks for your comments on Jewel Blast and Jewelled Album, it seems that the design in the jewel is something people are keen on - so I shall be 'looking into it' (*cough*) and push it a bit further.....cheers!!!
Hey 42,
Just droppin by to say thank you for the nice comments on my most recent works. Coming from you it is an honour to see that you like my works.

Thanks for your nice comment on "Over Time It Has Aged, But Not It's Beauty"! The shiny part was messed up! Thanks I will be making more! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Hey there Mum - Thanks for your comments on "Forest Planet" - Its heaps of fun, have a go - as the more different they are the more interesting it gets!! Cheers....
Hey there again! Thanks for stopping by on 'Sunset Planet'. It is a combinations of a lot of different photos taken at sunset from my house over neighbours houses. It was easy to do a magic wand select of the lower portion (Tree lines, roofs, satellite dish etc) and create a new document (1500 px by 10000px) and simply create a panorama of silhouettes. Then I followed the rest of the tutorial. I created the sky separately, from another sunset image and placed the 'world; over it. I then created a layer above and did a circular gradient to transparent, creating that dusk feel. The moon is from another photo, I duplicated it on 3 layers. The top layer is left alone, 2nd layer a gaussian blur of about 6px, 3rd layer is a guassian blur of about 30 px, this gives the moon a realistic 'glow'. The plane is cut from another of my images, and filled with black. Cheers.
Hello Mum. Thank you for the lovely comments about “Around Sydney” and “Around Maitland”. Both those images are based on a tutorial called - Make Your Own Planet! by Mythica. They are fun to create, well they kept me amused for a while :-)
Wow I think I will take up all our comment spaces! Anyway thank you again for posting and this time on Corrosion. Great to see someone always posting. Thanks!
Hi Mum good to hear from you.. thanks for the lovely comment on Dark & Mysterious.. i'm so glad you liked it.. it amazes me though that they kept this one on here and culled the one i made with this image that had apophysis coral and dolphins (you would have loved that one..)
Hi Mum42
Thank you for your comment on "Dreamcatcher" I am familiar with the works of Nathan Smith's work and his tutorials,which I think is very good:)
Thanks
for your kind comments on my pic" Lincolnshire Sunflowers (wide - view)"
No editing just a tiny bit of cropping (far right) to remove a fence.

Thanks for your comments on my 'Ground Zero Number 2' photo. I am very late in this reply...maybe even years late, but I'm catching up and getting back into Caedes once again. Hope all is well!

Thanks for your comment on "Drops of Colour From Past Memories". I am a little stumped at what the person before you said and a little offended but oh well. Thanks for the yips, I am very thakful. Glad you liked it!!
For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, His eternal power and Godhead;... Rom 1:20
It is quite realistic to say with certainty that one way or another the Call Girls in Udaipur are worth the amount that they receive for the chosen work, combined with their desire. Basically, it is not necessary to explain this, since the difference between when something is done because of necessity and the result that is achieved when you are doing what you love is already evident.
