Tom, thanks for the warm comment on "Electric Symmetry". I've never climbed the TV relay towers, but I *do* remember the fearless/dumb teenage days well! Thanks again. :-)
 
But enough about me....what do *you* think about me?

Thanks for your comment on "Ave Maria." The encouragement I get from Caedes gives me inspiration to keep working on this stuff.

thank you Tom . I was confused . maybe i read the note wroung. why did you email it to me.
 
Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

Thank you for the comment on (High Noon - Color), Tom. And, just a heads up, I'm actually outside in your bushes right now... :) Someone else I showed that picture to said it reminded them of Tampa... Must be a Florida thing...

I have you to thank for inspiring me to shoot the New Orleans photos that I have posted here on caedes. I lived in this town most of my life, but it never occurred to me to shoot photos of the town that didn't have any of my drunk friends in them. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hey Tom, thanks for checking out my Escher tribute (Infinite Stairway). I'm glad you liked it and always appreciate the feedback~

Thanks for your comment on "Dartmoor", Piner. I didn't notice that tree at the time - when I saw it in the picture I wished I'd got a closer look. It's not somewhere we go very often, and we rarely go to the same area twice as the moor is so large, but if I do get back there I'll see what I can do....
 

::mayne


LOL Tom, I have heard of that type of fishing as well...thanks for bringing that thought to mind. I may have to work around that idea to create another. Maybe raining cats and dogs or fish? Flying cows like in the movie "Twister" Thanks for the comment and inspiration:-)

I'm glad you liked "Sinner's Lament," the black and white gargoyle in my gallery. When I shot it, there were lots of small discolorations in the masonry of the cathedral, and it really didn't look very good, but when I converted it to B&W, they all disappeared! Thanks for your comment.

Hi, Tom - thanks for your constructive comments on "Floating Leaves". Also, I appreciate all the time that you took awhile back when I was having difficulty uploading images from my iBook. Still haven't resolved the problem with the laptop - now I just saving the file to a flashdrive and carry it over to the PC to upload. Any other thoughts? Thanks again! ~ Jan

Thank You Tom for the comments on "Reactor" I really had no before hand concept of what I was going to do (as with 99% of my images) it just worked out I guess. I really appreciate all of the comments and the support that you have always given me. Your a friend indeed.

Thanks Again,

Hi Tom, I was very excited when I saw "Majestic" in the works. It seems the Eagle wanted to pose as it made a nice long approach to the tree and then sort of left its wings spread long enough to get a couple shots. There are no babies yet:-)

Thanks for taking the time to comment on 'Milly's warm smile' I agree about the contrast between the nose - now that I look at it. I confess I used the Sharp filter in P/shop, and being in a hurry didn't really examine the result!!! But I will be a bit more careful next time!!! I thought the story of your sister funny - I'd love to see some shots of that patient cat!!! Cheers...

Thanks for your comment on my frog! I always thought it was a bit of an odd fairytale, but then most of them are!

I was looking through your images - I just LOVE your lighting images - did you do those with a long exposure, or a quick finger?

Thanks again!

Thank you Tom for your positive review of Bridge Over Colored Waters...it is much appreciated...as for size, unfortunately I didn't think this one would hold up well to enlargement, but glad you otherwise liked it.:Pat.

Hi Tom. I saw your comment about my "Palmetto" photo. I guess we've ben calling it the wrong thing here in N.O. all our lives. Do you realize that there's a street named "Palmetto" for those Sago Palms as you call them? We're just going to have to rename it I guess. Thanks for visiting my friend.

In response to either version of "Artopolis Times" and the "demented" typo...I realize that now..I checked it in the dictionary after posting the first one...In order to change that..I'd have to create a new title header in Illustrator (that's probably the only thing I DIDN'T create on that composition in Photoshop...although I may try a layerd patch and tweaking letters for a quick fix) I will have to re-download "Fare Hike" anyway...because of a typo ("Subay" instead of "Subway") But hey, thanks for letting me know! -Ron

(CJ) So your telling me you can appear and dissappear at the same time? (Mahalik) You can appear and disappear at the same time man! (CJ) But you can't be gone from one place and show up in another place at the same time, so when you turn up, your never missing, and when your missing, you never turn up!
