  1. Well I think that you must have a wonderful imagination to call that 'spring'.........brrrrrrrr!, but I would love some of it. We never have snow here.........Best regards. Roger
  2. John is quite correct when he states that the photographed object is entirely the work of another artist. His example of the 'Statue of Liberty' is also correct, but this particular crop and angle shown, is an original and unique interpretation by the photgrapher. To 'Photograph' (v), is to 'capture on film','get a likeness of', 'record', 'reproduce' etc. 'Photographic' (adj) is 'exact, retentive in detail','precise','realistic','true to life', etc.

    If a unique door_way entrance, is photographed, there is never a comment that this is the work of another, in this case, the architect, so why comment when the subject is a sculpture?. Basically photography is the 'reproduction' of a scene, an object, .....anything...., but it is the unique ability of each photographer, to capture, reproduce and present his work, in a manner pleasing to others. So, I do not agree with John and all the others who 'question' the merit or creativity of the type of photograph shown here. I think this shot is very well done, conveys the messege it was meant to and shows the talent and artistic ability of the photographer. Nice work

  3. I like your presentaion and exposure of this shot, Mika, but I think that the exposure time in relation to the water, was a bit too slow. The slow speed causes the water to look unnatural........more like 'cotton wool'. Besides that it is a nicely composed shot.
