I would just like to make note of one of our members. "Pistos" aka Jeff has been a member since February 2006. Recently, Jeff has been posting a pioneer sculpture series that is intriguing, beautiful, and photographed expertly. If there were a way to have a contest for best series, this would definitely be my all time favorite. For anyone reading this who has missed these photos, do Yourself a favor and go to his homepage and view his gallery (which, I might add contains some very impressive work.) Thank You Jeff and thank You Caedes (and a thank You to a very talented sculptor) for sharing this wonderful bit of history in so wonderful a manner. .....susanlynn

Hidden Caedes Treasures

;o)


Nice find and nice of you to give 'props', Susan.

Here's a link to Jeff's galleries (and sculpture photos/images amongst others):

Pistos; aka Jeff's.. Work Behind the Lens

Ted; aka ::gr8fulted.. has been a Caedes member about as long myself.

But, has been quite active uploading for the last while.

By all means.. check out his galleries, time and opportunity permitting.

Ted is bringing Caedes some excellent images. Bravo and I'm glad that you gave him recognition.

Thank you both. I receive your kudos with a warm and open heart.

Noticed this member online the other day, and to some of you he just might be a hidden Caedes treasure..


Jaap; aka japio progression from his first upload to the site here to his most recent is a wonderful photographic journey to view.

Here's his galleries.. Works by japio.

This one is a fav of mine.

A shimmy and a shake and..

A gentleman, scholar.. and perhaps, a fine judge of whiskey, too.

But, most assuredly.. a wonderful photographer:

LANJOCKEY; aka Mick.

Was reminded of this Caedesian's work behind the lens.

And particularly, on the note of the photography of flowers:

Leslie; aka Pixleslie's galleries.

Courtesy of our current site contest; "What is it?".. a question, scavenger hunt of sorts.. led me down the rabbit hole of the same themed past contests.

And.. guess what I found?

GGFF; aka Ilian Yanev's galleries.

Really beautiful work. And I mean.. all of his work/images. Have a look see for yourselves.

... ...

This was his entry to the one contest:

"What is it?"

With the additional bonus/discovery of a link to a tutorial on how to recreate/combine real flame photos:

1. Use preset flame brushes such as this Hi-Res brushes;
2. Combine real flame photos - here is a tutorial;
3. Create your own flame with multilayer technique & Liquid filter apply & Vivid light overall.

::Misteeq...a relatively new member but one who consistently shares some excellent architectural and abstract shots...be sure to check out her gallery...bravo Solly/Hamza!!!

You ever log on.. browser/lurk.. and catch an image and thought; "where was this member hiding?"
