Hi Mario.

 

An interesting photo of a common sight in Melbourne - I like the way you have handled this very much. Sepia tones look great. Well done. Lynne

Oh dear, now you are having problems with centring an image. Phil, I like it. Lovely deep colours - carnations are one of my favourite flowers and I feel like I can pick this one off the screen. Nice shot. Lynne

Very symmetrical image - I love your work Ruud. The ordinary becomes extraordinary. You are an inspiration to us all. Well done. Lynne

Beautifully tender moment captured by the master. Gorgeous, Catalin.

Interesting contrast of light and shadow - beautiful scene. Well captured. Lynne

My first thought was how like an elephant's foot this looks and then I read the name of the tree and that it comes from Australia. I have never seen it before. Great shot, Amal. Lynne

Lovely peaceful scene. Were you on a boat when you shot this? The ripples in the water reflecting the rising sun look amazing. Lynne

Very powerful - the destruction of fire is something we see in Australia a lot. Well shot, Alpo.

Just one word - exquisite.

This is such a lovely photo - you have captured the charm of this beautiful colt so well. Definition is superb - you can see each hair, eyelash. Very well done. Lynne

Dramatic storm showing the sun trying to break through - the sky

suddenly became very dark, like sunset.

Very nice shot. Wish I looked like this. Like the balance of the photo - very attractive model. Best regards from Australia, Lynne

I have a great love of sunrises and sunsets and this is a beauty. Love the layered look of the clouds from tight to really puffy. I haven't been to Georgia - you have pretty sunrises. Good work. Lynne

Mike,

You have captured the love between them so well. Your son is adorable and the arm around the cat's neck says it all. Cats are notoriously hard to photograph - this one has such a relaxed, contented look on his face and his eyes are a great green. Well shot. Lynne

Taken on a stormy day at St Kilda, Melbourne. The storm just crept

in so quickly - you can see the blue sky and white clouds under the

storm front. It was very dramatic.

I am just learning how to use my new camera and so far have found the results different from my other Canon. I just use a point & shoot - don't think I could master the complexity of an SLR. But I don't seem to be gettingn the quality of photo that I had with my simpler Canon. Anyway, glad you like this one. Thanks for your comment. Lynne

Must admit I like the original better, but what an interesting texture - it really looks like a painting. Very original work. Lynne

Love your toes, especially that sexy pink nailpolish. Like the story this photo tells. Good work. Lynne

Beautifully captured Babis. Subtle, beautiful colours. Well done. Lynne

What a touching photo - wonderful silhouette and subtle colouring. Very special photo. Lynne

Love this one, Deb. You are a master at capturing amazing expressions on birds and animals. Such patience! Lynne

Hi Jacynthe,

 

Bonjour from Australia. The framing of this photo really makes it - it is distinctive and unusual. I think this one is worthy of a place on your wall. I love photos of seagulls and this is one of the best I've seen. Well done. Lynne

Another view of St Kilda Marina, showing the yachts and the City of

Melbourne in silhouette.

Hi Steve,

 

Thanks for your comments on my photo of St Kilda Marina. I love the detail in this shot - you can see the different colours of the well defined feathers and the lines on their faces. Good title too. Well shot. I thought for a minute they were Australian birds. What are they, do you know? All the best from Australia. Lynne

I am a bit manual illiterate, Mike. Much better to be shown how to do something. As for filters, I only have a point & shoot camera - it isn't possible to get filters for that kind of camera?? One of these days I will upgrade to a digital SLR, but for now, stuck with what I've got.

 

I actually had a Canon PowerShot A80 and that is what I used for the bulk of what you see on PN. I have just recently started using a Canon PS A640 and am not nearly as happy with the results. I am not sure if it is me or the camera. Maybe need to practise more. L.
