Clematis Bud - (enlarge)

After a long search in my mind's hard drive, I could not find a proper adjective to encompass the beauty, subtleness, sensibility, aesthetics, color, visual impact, composition and other attributes your image has, so I finally thought "Poetic" could somehow amalgam them all. Not much more to say when an image alone says so much. Your work makes it worth browsing PN, only to find such treasures. Take care and best regards.

Such a beautiful critique - I am truly humbled by your words that in a whole - to me are - "Poetic".  These lovely words coming from you - a very accomplished photographer and one of the kindest individuals I have come to know here on PN will always be 'treasured' on what is my 'hard drive' - although at times I wonder how much 'space' I have left in it :) or perhaps I think I'm missing a few GB's. You see the world through a very fine and attentive 'lens' and it is the resulting images that have always found me wondering why there is so much I miss in the everyday sights that are just 'life'.  I think through observing your images I have learned quite a bit and I hope that I will be able to be more discerning and open to what really is out there visually in our World because of you. Thank you for taking the time to comment on this composition - and to share words that will 'always connect me to you'.

Your Friend who will be waiting for you to come back and visit when your heart leads you in this direction, humbly, Gail

Hello there Jorge! I hope life in your beautiful Miami is going well and your Family, I'm sure are growing by leaps and bounds.  Seeing your name here, of course brought an immediate smile to my face. I appreciate your kind words and observations on this image. Hopefully I will be by to visit your visual treats very soon!

Best always, Gail

HOLGER   -     You know me too well :)  Sincere thanks for those encouraging words shared. I hope you are enjoying this beginning of summer. I will look forward to see where you travel to this summer!!!

ROBERT   -     I always appreciate hearing what you have to share about any of my compositions as Your Love in Photography is the Beautiful Birds you so Expertly capture - always a delight for me to view and keep me coming back for more!

RADU        -     Yes you know my 'style' as I do yours Radu -Your encouraging words are always appreciated and I have been away too long. I took a quick peek last week and saw the awesomely beautiful floral images you have been posting - always an inspiration and always considered a good friend. I hope you and your lovely family are able to see each other this summer !!

ANTONY     -     Sincere thanks for your visit - so good to see you back and to know that you came to visit me. I intend to come over and visit and hopefully I will see some lovely images of your 'Cardigan' and it's beautiful shores!

COLIN         -     So nice to see that you took the time to share a fewthoughts about this composition - your work always inspires me - sincere thanks for your thoughts shared my friend.

JACK            -     Those lovely words so beautifully said are trulyencouraging.  I always question myself before posting - will others see what I see? It was the colour, light, tone and luminance that finally made me decide I was finished this one. I am so happy to hear you saw these attributes as well. I value always what you have to share about my Compositions. I hope you are having a good 'summer'?? I am not sure what season you are in right now Jack?

ROSARIO     -      It is the beautiful colours of your sunsets thatalways inspire me - or at least long to see such beautiful sights.  But as I think of your lovely images, I see similar colors as in your Sunsets :)  I think it is the warmth of the Apricots, Oranges and Golden Tones that are so soothing.  Perhaps this is why we are Blessed with Sunsets - to soothe the soul at the end of a long day. To walk one of your beaches and see such colours would be 'heaven' to me. Thanks for stopping by my friend.

JIM               -     I got your reference within the first 2 words!!! :)  There is nothing like a nice 'cold one' after I have been out in the Garden - I don't often drink Beer these days - but when the temps get as hot as they have been - I am inclined. :) I will be curious to see where you have travelled in the last few months!! I 'travel' through you I think Jim. I often wonder if there is anywhere you have NOT visited???

WILLIAM       -     You have always been an inspiration to me Bill, and it is good to hear that you found merit in this composition!!!  Always enjoy visiting you to see what you have created of late. You have such an eye for composition!!!

TONY             -     Thank you so much for those lovely encouragingwords shared. So glad that you enjoyed this composition!!

DAVID            -     I am sure when I come to visit you - there will be a lot of creations that will inspire me - you are a 'one of a kind' artist here on PN. Thanks so much for the encouragement!

MAURIZIO        -   Sincere thanks my friend!! Always appreciate hearing from you!

as if it were resting.

pretty cool. best, jamie

yes it is calming - I want to print it and hang on my wall - just because of that feeling. Thanks again for stopping by my friend.

I am catching up on things....sorry for my tardiness........yes  I do need to print this one - I have been printing images for cards that I send to friends or give to ones who I care about - but I've never done this one and have no idea why.  :) thanks for the encouragement to do it!
