Spencer and Sally for the visit and I wish you a happy and prosperous holiiday season.

Best regards.

I think Ridley Scott studied ants before he started making the movie, Aliens !

Happy Holiday season to everyone here and elsewhere.

Best wishes.

The technicians would probably have something to argue about here but the artists would make comments like the one made above. I especially like how you composed this in regards to the window elements. I am not sure how it would work out but I would totally remove the remnance of the over exposed garden out

Here, I just did it and I, personally like it this way as well.

I do wish you and your family a very happy holiday season.

Best wishes.

You did make me blush, thank you for the encouraging remards, really!

Best wishes.

Birte for the generous comment. I do appreciate you stopping by.

Best regards.

I told you, you didn't need any schooling, I saw it coming!

Very nicely done and I like the lighting here specially in ht eyes which makes it a very effective portrait for me.

I wish you a happy holiday season and a very happy 2007.

Kind regards.

Couldn't resist the intense and dramatic sky here.

I wish you a Merry Christmas and a very happy 2007.

Kind regards.

Awesome photo Amir, well composed and thought of, greast work my friend.

Best wishes

This is REALLY good Rafik.This is where your talent is, forget about the out of reach birds for a while!

I like everything about this image specially your fabulous capture, DOF, tones and specially color transitions, well done The placement of the fragrance works fine for me as well specially choosing the silver candle on the top, nice job!

Keep it up man!

It does look christmasy and Merry Christmas to both of you.

Good focus and you also have the foreground in focus which is a good thing. Also you seem to have a good exposure under the harsh sun and your WB looks fine :)

I can see how soon you will be exactly where you want to be. This is really good. I like the pose, lighting and the whole set up. What a great idea with the can. I did something like that once with egg crates. Oh, and a pretty model as well.

For some reason the eyes look a bit soft on my monitor but I know that they can't be. Besides, I'm not as crazy about sharpness as some of us seem to be.

I'm going to mention this so much that you'll eventually start doing it just to get rid of me, take raw shots!! ;)

Dear Huy and Biswajit for commenting and I wish a Happy Holiday for you all.

Best regards.

You are doing fine withe this tilt shooting. I think it works here as well. I like the pose and position of the hand is helping balance the composition, i believe. You have to start taking photos in raw format and I think it will help you out quite a bit in things like WB and exposure.

Thank you for the rating and nice comment on my Macro. The rating system here is hijacked I couldn't give satisfaction to all those who put down 3/3 on that photo. One was OK but 3 3/3's was NOT! :) I may upload again.

Kind regards and have a Happy Holiday.

Your colors are super good and your tonal range, fantastic, as usual!

Have a happy holiday season my friend,

Cheers.

This is a fine capture with a very good perspective Amir.

Cheers.

Thank you Ellen. It was very late in the afternoon and the sun was setting on the tail end!

Cheers

Very NICE photo Rachel and a GOOD use to tilt shooting here, bravo!

Cheers.

Fun, loving momebt Rachel. I like the capture, skin tones and the reds look great.

Cheers and Happy Holidays.

Yes, I agree with Jim and his comment. The tilt doesn't bother me much specially if the camera was rotated to the left a tad. I love it the way it is too but I think the big patch of grass on the lower right corner may have to go.

Cheers.

Very fine capte. I like the skin tones and the shades look great! I may be tempted to think about cropping it from the top just a tad, down to the tip of the pocket on the hat.

Cheers and happy holidays.

Thanks Kurt, He lives in Sweden and I live in the US. I hope he gets to read your comment!

Regards.

Niec capture Kurt I peally like the capure of the sky and the full n!

Cheers.

I like the colors, reflections and the framing in this one Kurt, nice work.

Cheers.

the kind comment. He is actually very good at it and has been featured in a couple of Swedish magazines, only if he gets his mind on the ball!

Kind regards.
