Simple and nice. The digital alterations work very well here.

Nice and dreamy!

Thanks for the comments and ratings to all who stopped by here.

I agree with Vlastimil about the left upper corner.

It is indeed an excellent image with a strong mood.

Nonetheless, I have another cropping suggestion - cropping off approximately 1/4th from the right so that the contour of the rock will form a diagonal.

Very interesting and well done!

Excellent photo with very intersting composition, toning and focusing on the main subject.

The idea of giving at least one 1/1 is also excellent. Sort of preemptive strike :-)

Very well captured motion and very nice color palette.

Critique, comments and ratings are welcome.

Nice and simple, George.

The curved edge (of the table ?) in left bottom corner is an intersting detail. Makes the image somewhat disbalanced and levitating.

Good idea, Vlad. And let's hope you'll be uploading Budget Surplus in a couple of years.

Thank you also for your recent comment and suggestion about desaturating my Perspective of aging. I agree - desaturation helps.

Very good composition. Nice balance of colors. Perhaps, cropping off a little bit more of the car panel on the right?

Excellent work, Robert. Thank you for the technical details.

June 5, 2003

Very good work.

I would like to thank Laura, Polychronis, Cliff, Jame, and Robert for the comments/ratings left here.

My goals (within this folder) are obviously far from creating realistic images. It's experimental stuff. I am glad that many viewers evaluate/ appreciate images regardless of the techniques used and the relationship with what we normally call REALITY.

Being a physisist and dealing professionaly with various aspects of optical as well as non-optical imaging I consider traditional photography only as one of a number possible ways to create IMAGES. Away from my reserach I am interested in SUBJECTIVE perception of IMAGES and their emotional impact.

I agree with Jame that digital processing can be a lot fun while traditional darkroom work that involves creativity is virtually sweating. After trying the both I prefer digital processing over multiple exposures, filters greased with vaseline, lights with gels, etc.

Nonetheless, I am interested in hearing all opinions, curious to know what the viewers like and what they don't. While positive comments make me happier critical ones make me think ;-))
