ada-ipenburg 0 Posted October 30, 2005 - Hi Paula, yes I know at that time there was some sort of a strange defect on PN. I had the same problem:( I'm glad you like my restored version better. Alas I can't find the Dutch translation for 'thump up'. But I suppose you mean to say that the image has undergo many restorations in the meanwhile, am I right? Thanks anyway Paula for your constructive and great comment:~). - I'm really very grateful with your fantastice reaction on my newest creation, dear Amelie. Your hug felt great and a real big hug goes your way, Ada:~) Link to comment
Landrum Kelly 64 Posted October 30, 2005 Ada, I am reminded of the third stanza from John Keats' "Ode to Melancholy": She dwells with Beauty--Beauty that must die; And Joy, whose hand is ever at his lips Bidding adieu; and aching Pleasure nigh, Turning to poison while the bee-mouth sips: Ay, in the very temple of Delight Veil'd Melancholy has her sovran shrine, Though seen of none save him whose strenuous tongue Can burst Joy's grape against his palate fine; His soul shalt taste the sadness of her might, And be among her cloudy trophies hung. Yes, Ada, you have offered a magnificent visual expression of the same idea expressed by Keats: the reality that beautiful things in this world must, alas, fade away. It is a very sad thought, really, and thus Keats' reference to it as "melancholy." Technically, this is superb as well. I cannot praise it too highly. No, there is nothing suggestive or provocative about it. That would be nonsense. It is truly a creative masterpiece. You are nonetheless bold in offering it on such a forum as Photo.net. I am glad to see that it has been very well-received. --Lannie Link to comment
ada-ipenburg 0 Posted October 31, 2005 I'm speechless dear Lannie.... What a great comment you've given to me and what a splendid poem. I'm more than flattered that my work reminds you of the brilliant work of J. Keats. I've done my best to understand the poem. It's the original version written in Anglo-Saxon I suppose? Though I don't understand it all, the content of it is clear to me. It's fantastic and so sweet of you to show me how people, independent of age and period of time give expression to the same theme by using their own individual talents. Thank you so much Lannie!

Guest Guest Posted November 1, 2005 It's wonderful, Ada - a great piece of work, and worthy of 7/7's, for sure! Groetjes, Lee Link to comment
ada-ipenburg 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Ah, Thanks Lee for your great appreciation of this picture. Greetings, Ada:) Link to comment
ada-ipenburg 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Ja joh, ik ben een echte nachtuil. Net als jij denk ik. Terwijl de vaatwasser steunt en kreunt en de verwarmingsbuizen nog zachtjes tikken nadat de thermostaat al een uur daarvoor is afgeslagen komt de inspiratie pas goed op gang. Maar ja, de volgende dag heb ik weer spijt dat ik het zo laat heb gemaakt. Wallen onder mijn ogen, gapen, een duffe kop, je kent het vast wel:) He, leuk dat je even langs kwam en bedankt voor je mooie kritiek. Welterusten dan maar, Ada;~) Link to comment

henrimanguy 0 Posted December 9, 2005 You are very inventive and you have skill to make photomontage. I would have liked to give you 7 but you gave me 7 also on a photo and I am not "allowed to reciprocate so soon" as says the photo.net message. Regards, Henri Link to comment
ada-ipenburg 0 Posted December 11, 2005 the most important to me is your comment. I feel very proud by the compliment you make me. It's great you like to pay this work of mine with the highest ratings, but in fact they are not important after the fantastic comment you gave to me:~) Many Greetings, Ada:) Link to comment
detlef 6 Posted December 12, 2005 I don`t come to photo.net as often anymore because of the aparent dis-interest in my work by the members...but when I do I always enjoy looking at your images Ada. keep up the good work...and if I should not come back before Christmas...A Very Merry Christmas to You and Your Family. ...detlef Link to comment
ada-ipenburg 0 Posted December 12, 2005 I appreciate your comments Detlef you know that, but not only your comments; I also appreciate your work. And as it is with all of us, sometimes our pictures doing well, and other times they doing a bit less. But I agree that there is a des-interest amongst members, but not only for your work Detlef. The time that a good unmanipulated picture got the attention and appreciation it deserves seems to be done, unless you have a couple of real true friends around you who will always stand by and follow your work with full interest. What has happened here with this picture is exceptional, Detlef. I personal think that the last picture I posted from Bruges, (the one with the trees in front of a churh) should earn more attention, actually. But for some reason only a handful of people have react on it. It's disappointing but I can understand that it's very demotivating when nobody comes to take a look at your work. It's not you Detlef, it's not your sense of humour, and it can't be your remarks. You are a real gentlemen; an engaging guy, so don't worry about that. What I worry about is the pain and the disappointment people cause you by being such an ego trippers. They even don't realise what they can bring about in someones life by ignore the work and the person who created the work into which he has put his heart and soul. I've just watched the last portrait you've uploaded Detlef and it's a wonderful picture. So please, keep posting your work and keep commenting, if it was only for me! I don't gonna whish you a Merry Christmas Detlef, (not yet!) because I'm sure we will see and talk to each other before Christmastime has arrived. Keep your spirits up!!! Love, Ada. Link to comment
