Fantastic shot, lovely angles, repeated patterns and perspective.

Fake blur, that's the bokeh of the 135mm f2?

All that has been done to this is a sharpen, a green channels layer BW conversion and curves. The hole in the head is caused by some berk waving their hands infront of the camera and the bokeh of the 135mm f2- which is an awesome portrait lens.

Many thanks for the comments they are appreciated,

Kev

Because it cuts through all cultures, languages, differences, policies,

prejudices and perspectives?

Thank you for looking,

KM

Anyone know what crop this is?

Many thanks for looking,

Kev

Ah Dr Long you are doing it all wrong. You buy a universal remote, 4 go to 1, and then you have space for more beer AND a bottle of wine. Stella Artois is affectionately termed 'wife-beater' by the social classes in the UK, due essentially to its effect after consuming 34 in one sitting. So I am told of course as I fall asleep after 4 these days.

Lovely shot though, it is the money that makes the shot interesting and maybe says something about you i.e. its disregard indicates it means little to you. I feel the same. Perhaps everyone who has commented on your photo should take a picture of their desks, it would be interesting.

Keep them coming Maestro.

Cheers Marc and I agree, selective colour with B&W is a bit naff and is a big no-no on photo.net (they love it on Flickr Explore). However, I didn't know how else to focus the attention on this beautiful woman from your side of the pond. The untouched version is here (the picture not the lady, though I was tempted);

Why don't we make things like this today I ask myself? Monochrome

version I think just edges it but any comments, tips would be most

appreciated.

Many thanks,

Kev

I guess this is the view of what the Pope sees of us.

Constructive criticism is always appreciated as we all want to get better.

Many thanks for looking,

Legend has it, if you throw a coin in the Trevi fountain you will return to

Rome. Throwing it over the shoulder was added by the authorities as so

many coins were hitting the fountain and damaging it.

I like this picture because it looks more like a painting than a photograph

and the American lady in red was simply beautiful. Where is she now?

Thanks for looking.

Kev

I must be the 700 millionth person to take this picture but I couldn't resist.

Thanks for looking, I hope I did it justice.

Kev

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh Dr Long you're like the Beatles, you get better with age and surpass your masterpieces constantly.

Magnificent Sir, simply magnificent.

Best wishes old friend,

Kev

Cheers Phil and the lead hanging down is the radio remote. Unfortunately, the lens focusing and the shutter firing scared him off. I needed a macro on there I guess.

Nice spot of my peanuts bait Sir!

Actually, it is not a Photoshop work of art! It was take from a Castle hundreds of metres up a sheer cliff face, looking directly down on the lake it looks over and the lido below. Taken with a 400mm lens and cropped. The location is Lake Bled, Slovenia.

Sorry to disappoint but consider yourself corrected.

You have a lovely portfolio Sir.

It irritates me when people don't put their settings down. I apologise profusely.

Canon 5D, 14mm prime, f8, sitting on my backside and stared at by the

museum staff as if I was a nutter.

Which is probably true.

Many thanks for looking and any comments welcome, we all want to

improve.

I am jealous.

Great shot Dr Long, absolutely great.
