Thanks Tony & Mike.

David

Appreciate that Mike!

Thanks, David

Thank you very much gentlemen and ladies.  I hope you had a wonderfully festive holiday and look forward to a fine new year.

Best wishes,

David

Thanks very much Marie - pleased you like it.

David

Thanks Marie & Mike.  I hope this shot was worth my cold fingers . . .

(Marie - hope your computer is back up and running - their the Achilles heel of modern photography yes?)

Best, David

Tony - Yes, snow is so tricky isn't it?  Your edit looks better though!

Take care, David

A delicate, serene, and lovely winter scene Tony. 

May I suggest lightening the snow a bit, as It appears too gray to me.  Of course this may be simply a difference in monitors.

A fine image regardless.

Best, David

Beautiful study of form, light, and shadow.  Isn't window light grand!

Well done Michail,

David

Thanks much Mike.  Now wait a minute - I just know you would not have missed those birds, regardless of title! (I know how well and carefully you make and look at photos). 

Thanks also Tony - especially for your kind words and Christmas wishes, (same to you).

I do feel as if I'm making better pictures lately - partly due to having a new camera.  The Fuji XE2s rangefinder style camera has good manual control dials, excellent image quality, and is a pleasure to carry and use.

Best to you both,

David

Why thank you Tony!

Hi Radu, and thank you.

Yes, we had had about 35 inches of snow so far this month - with more to come and temperatures near 0 tonight. 

I am enjoying the new camera very much, especially shooting in manual focus and exposure.

Take care,

David

Thank you Radu - pleased you like it!

David

A stunningly beautiful photo, especially viewed large.  The hound is perfectly placed within the frame - and that window light is gorgeous.

One of your finest I think!

Very well done,

David

A magnificent animal Alf - but what makes the shot for me is the setting with the sunlit hills.

A gorgeous photo - well done.

David

As if all is sugar coated by nature - fine shot Tony.

Best, David

Tony, Marie, Mike, & Jack - thanks!

Sometimes, even sub-standard life forms such as people are allowed to sit here, (but not often).

Best, David

Thanks Mike.  I thought so too!

Best, David

A classic Debra.  Well done.

David

A very strong portrait Michail.  Love the rich blacks - and the workman's grit his face shows.

Well done,

David

Thanks Mike.  Yes, I think I'm enjoying the craft of photography with this camera more than with any other since perhaps the film days.

Carlos - thanks.  I enjoy reading your comments greatly - there's poetry in there . . .

Ken - Appreciate that!  Thanks.

Best, David

Superb landscape - with great composition and delicate mood.

Beautiful!

Thoughts appreciated, (please view large).

Thanks, David

The green leaf is so starling against the frost crystals Radu.  An unusual yet beautiful combination.

Best, David

Love it Line -

Well done,

David

Hi Mike & Marie - thanks for your visits.

We are in the midst of another storm today, which I will be sending your way Marie shortly.

David
