Beautiful shot, Wayne.

Thanks for signing up our LA Photo Salon, can't wait to see your photos.

Warm regards,

Ray Wei

I appreciate your comments, to me this is a NEW approach as I rendered this glamour shot in Direct Positive, a feature in Adobe LR. It totally brings out the colors of hair, eyes and the lips.

Yes I am not happy about the glove, nor the shadow under the nose. :D

Thanks again.

Rarely produce nudes in color, but love to try.

Comments are welcome as always. Thanks in advance.

Texture, pattern, mood plus 100% Pnina Evental -- a formula for a hit. Always.

Agree with others here. Very impressive. :D

Best regards,

Ray

Double Take - Using "Bulb" Shutter Setting And Two Strobe Exposures

Brilliant. THANKS for sharing, got it!

Multiple exposure? If so, it's beyond what I saw in the past. I tried a similar approach but failed flat, my model moved too far apart. :D

Congrats on a wonderful job, my friend.

Moving to a new direction, please critique. Thanks in advance as

always.

I do like the song, among other pieces you've made. Vocal is my weakest in music composition, so here is a link to my piano piece -- kinda new age.

I come back to see your photos more often than you may know. :D

cherlyn,

I like the color and facial expression.

Warm regards, love to see more of your photos. Love your people and abstract photos.

Thanks. Actually some music by Philip Glass could go with yoiur City Hall.

Love your work. I come back to your photos more than you may realize. :D

Regards,

Ray

It's okay to me, your intention to help counts for me, big time. :D

Lou Ann and I go way back, she helped me so much by bringing me into a circle of PN photographers two years ago, and I learned much from that circle. Lou Ann is a popular and respected critic. People orbit around her photos too.

I stopped rating and commenting photos once I got really busy and had to cut back my sleep.

Keep on shooting WhenKat. Warm regards.

If I don't do photography when I am old, maybe I will go back to composition.

I know you love music too, so here is a piece I wrote three years ago before I dived into photography. Consider it a postcard for you sent from Washington DC. :D

Don't know how to make a hyperlink, so you have to copy/paste the URL. :D

Actually, pretty easy. I go to Gallery, and take category=all, period=all and by=folder views. It will list top 1000 folders ranked by number of views. I only count the six folders that made the list, that adds up to 22 million already.

Some folders by Alec Ee and Wilson Tsoi are way up there. :D

I like this one, Lou Ann, better than mine in color arrangement. :D

Well thanks for stopping by my port, so you are the one who pumped up my total view count, right now it's at around 22 million, not a lot compared to others, but enough to help me learning things.

As for the reason why I didn't request critique and comments, welll, I want to count the uninvited clicks so it's unbiased. I often throw out a batch the same time, sit back and watch, trying to find out which one gets more hit -- it's revealing, really.

Have fun shooting.

Kevin, someday when I am old, I'd love to teach photography, I'll use your photos for composition classes, if you allow. I think I can talk 45 minutes on each of these!

Regards,

Ray

This photo should be in composition textbooks as a great example. Watch where the lines end!

Just wondering what will Kevin Bernard do in 2007?

Warm regards,

Ray
