Good morning Paul, this Columbine bloom was just about the last one on the plant at this time though i had better get to it. I agree, the gemstone, does pull your eyes away from the flower, just though i would try something different . Thanks for your time and nice comments, have a wonderful day. Dwight.

Hey there, thanks for your comment on "Mystical Fan"... as for inspiration to shoot a fan, I don't really know. I was playing around with the shutter speed in my room, and I just kind of looked around for something to shoot, and the fan was moving so I figured I could experiment a little. Glad you liked it :)

thanks for the comment on "Falls Hollow Waterfall" My screen name is actually my real name, which is Albanian. I get quite a few questions about it since people are not inclined to believe it is my real name and it is not, in actuality, pronounced like it is spelled (it's pronounced like Maria but with an Fl in place of the M). If you have any other questions, feel free to ask--I'm always glad to talk about myself :-P

Thank you, Paul, for your comment on "fern". I tend to agree with you - the image is not focused perfectly. I have few other shots of this plant, built the way you would like it. This one seemed more interesting to me composition-wise. I'll see if I can replace this one, when I have time, just to show you how it would look.

Thanks for your comments on Monhegan: Peace. In response to your question...
The sky was just hazy way off in the distance, I think. I have other shots from that day and it was a really decent, sunny day. It could also just be my camera. I have a few shots where the skyline/horizon turns basically white, despite it being clear.

Pentagrams are not only wicca symbols, pentagrams were used symbolically in ancient Greece and Babylonia. The Pentagram has magickal associations, and many people who practice pagan faiths wear them. Christians once commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus, but nowadays some Christians associate the symbol with Satanism. However, most who use it are not Satanists.

Hi Paul, thx for your comment, I like your critics you give and yes you are right, but the sun was way to bright that day. This makes it hard to make a shadow on the subject. Of course it is possible to manipulate pic´s in Adobe or so, but I prefer to not do so. You are free to fresh up my pic if you wish.Thx for stopping by and leaving a comment / Håkan.

Hey, thanks for your comment on temptation, I thought there might be some trouble with the darkness (i got TFT too, just my brightness is pretty high), I just didnt want to lighten it in case it took away from the dark spooky kind of feel I wanted to get.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
thanks Paul for the kind post on Lilac Lovelies. its great to find something this pretty and delicate.

"Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps"
Paul, thanks for your dropping by at "Dollar Glen". thanks for the suggestion, although i have to disagree. 1. there was so little water in the stream that frezing it would mean that it would just look like a trickle. 2. it was so dark under there that i would need to use at least iso1600
to get a fast enough shutter speed and keep the Dof deep enough too. 3. freezing it would stop all the coulors and dreaminess in the water. just my opinion. :D

Hoi Paul,
Bedankt voor je reactie, en ja het klopt de sprinkhaan is niet helemaal scherp. Ik moet nog wat wennen aan mijn nieuwe camera, de Sony is eenvoudiger in het maken van scherpe macro's maar dan moet je wel dicht op het te fotograveren object kunnen komen. Deze (Canon) geeft meer mogelijkheden doordat je vanaf een aantal meters nog macro's kunt maken echter blijkt later op het scherm dat het net ff wat scherpte mist.
Nogmaals dank voor je stem en reactie.

Hello again, Paul...thanks for your time and interest in 140 Winks?...very glad you enjoyed it...yes, as a matter of fact, I did use the 300 again and was not as far from these birds as you would think I need to be...viewing them from behind a sand dune helped in being able to get the shot without disturbing them...I am wondering what type of bird it was that took off on you when you got within 60 feet...was it the same bird as these?...I am not really familiar with these birds but being shoreline birds I suppose they are somewhat used to having people around on the beaches as opposed to some birds who would be very wary of any people approaching them...by the way, they did end up taking off as we got closer and I also have a shot of that which I may post sometime soon...tks again for your visit and comments...much appreciated.:Pat.

Kiss for a Dying Wild Flower one of the wildflowers that my wife has planted in the backyard. This one is past its peak but still attractive to the local bug population. Thanks Paul for taking the time to view and comment on this image.

Hi Paul,
Thank you so much for your very, very, very kind comments on "kiss." I received a digital camera this last Christmas from my mom and dad and haven't stopped taking pictures since. Photograph is one of the loves of my life. I find great satisfaction in a picture that shows either true beauty or a picture that makes the viewer think. I'm flatter/pleased/honored to have your thumbs up! :-) Thanx again! :-)

P.S. I didn't lie in my profile...I'll be 15 August 16th!

Less is more. I totally understand what you were saying! I had asked people to rework this image for me (if they wanted to.) When someone took me up on it...I thought it best to honor them by putting it in my gallery. I must say that I like the original better also...but I didn't want to "burn bridges" by not displaying the rework that Daddyrumpinks did!
I understand what you were saying. It's all about creating the art of suspense. By leaving some holes the viewer is forced to imagine!
Thanks for your great comment! :-)

Jekyll Island Beach Nightlife was taken in the darkness. I had to use a flashlight on him so my camera would focus. Actually we did a little high stepping dance until I got him to stop for a minute.

Thanks Paul for your comments on two of my butterfly pictures, Bermuda Butterfly and Zygaena Butterfly. The name of the first one is just something that popped up in my mind when I couldn´t find the right name..hehe..the other name is correct...I shot the first one in a Butterfly House and the Zygaena in my garden. It is, of course a bit easier indoors but as you know several attempts are needed to get a photo you´re pleased with. I took at least fifty of the Zygaena and two of them were okay... I´m glad you liked them ! -- Arne --

The fly was so busy jumping and crawling all over the (little) flower so I couldn't get it all sharp and it was gone before I could take another shot. For all that I found its hairy bottom sharp enough, LOL. Groeten, Eric

Hallo Paul,
Ja, weer een kikker, ze blijven mij fascineren. Bedankt weer voor je positieve reactie op weer een foto van mij. De lens was een Tamron 28-300mm lens en ik stond (met natte en wegzakkende voeten) recht boven deze kikker en heb de hele "zoom" er op losgelaten.
Op het beeldscherm zag ik pas de vlieg tussen zijn ogen zitten, inderdaad cynisch....
Op het landgoed, welke ik eerder noemde, heb ik op mijn buik voor een poel met groene kikkers gelegen, zie "Frogs proposal". Helaas dreef er nogal wat gras in wat net gemaaid was, wat veel foto's helaas "minder" maakt.

Dag Paul, bedankt voor je enthousiaste woorden op "this is my land" en "In the Spot light". Wat betreft de onvolledige weergave in XP, dat probleem ken ik eerlijk gezegd niet. Wel ik dit eens ondervonden bij weergave middels een laptop op een extern beeldscherm. Het probleem was toen opgelost door de beeldscherm instellingen tijdelijk te veranderen op een andere schermresolutie en daarna weer terug te zetten op de oorspronkelijke resolutie. Je kunt bij deze instellingen komen door op je buroblad de rechtermuistoets in te drukken. Succes!

Paul, I really want to thank you for your comments and show of support for “Together We Stand”. I live, basically, surrounded by farmland. To the East and South it is mostly dry land farming, with wheat the main commodity. To the West and North it’s mostly fruit and other crops dependent on irrigation. I have spent numerous hours and or days photographing the “Green Crops” and very little time in the dry land areas. I started to turn more attention to that area when I saw another image here on Caedes that was some form of grain. This is one of the photographs that resulted because of that image. I wish I could remember who did it; I would like to thank them personally.
The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist’s way of scribbling; “Kilroy was here” on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.
William Faulkner

Hallo Paul, Bedankt voor je bezoekje en compliment op mijn Comma. De hele zomer zie ik alleen maar koolwitjes. Tot mijn schrik kwam ik onlangs geheel onverwacht twee van deze vlinders tegen op een struik. Een vloog weg en de andere bleef net lang genoeg zitten om een foto te kunnen maken. Gelukkig een goede. Ik ben het met je eens dat dit misschien wel de mooiste nederlandse vlinder is. Ik zal ook jouw Comma eens bekijken.

"A picture is worth a thousand words"
Hi Paul! :)
Thank you for the kind words today. It always means a lot to hear from you. I'm still feeling bad about not thanking you enough for all the great comments you have made on my work.
I like the way you commented on "Pasture by the Creek". I know exactly what you mean. You will be happy to know it's surrounded by roads and houses that doesn't quite mix with this piece of "perfect" landscape. ^_^
Sometimes one can use the camera to "adjust" reality a bit. Just by simply choosing not to take some parts of an environment into the composition of the shot. It's a very beautiful piece of nature but it's not a big place. It takes perhaps five or ten minutes to walk the length of this small ravine (far beyond what can be seen in that shot) but it's only as wide as you can see there. On the left side is the outskirts of the city I live in and on the right is some flat agricultural landscape that is far from interesting...
I'm really glad you liked my spider shot too. :)
Cheers, I'll try to get in touch the next few weeks... ;)

Thanks for your compliments on "Stinkhorn (Phallus Impudicus) Stinkzwam". This one is without flies but sometimes they're "blue all over" by these flies sitting on the head. The mushroom season has started so I hope to see some nice pictures of them from you too.
I search for the Red Fly Agaric mushroom which I think is the most beautiful one.

Hoi Paul,
Thanks for your reaction on "Up to the Sky (Cross Spider)". Yes, I know, it's not easy to get these creatures all sharp, legs - body and web - With a nice background. 2 out of 4 is possible, 3/4 hard to get, 4/4 not yet succeeded.
I saw your "garden spider" and it's a 3/4. Hope you will make your 4/4 soon. I know you can. Groeten Eric

Hi Paul,
Zeer vereerd dat mijn portretten je aanspreken. Het verbaast mij dat er zo weinig portretten
ingestuurd worden. Het is zo'n fantastisch onderwerp.
Fotograferen is mijn leukste hobby, dat doe ik al mijn hele leven en sinds anderhalf jaar digitaal.
Heb ook jouw gallery bekeken, spreekt mij heel erg aan, fantastische makro foto's.
De " Azure Damselfly " is mijn favoriet!
Groeten

Hi Paul: You are right it is remakable that they look so much alike. I wonder if they are related in the animal kingdom.
I do appreciate your comments on "Pit Stop".
You're right it does kind of look like a Tom-Cat ready for take off.
Bad artists always admire each other’s work. They call it being large-minded and free from prejudice. But a truly great artist cannot conceive of life being shown, or beauty fashioned, under any conditions other than those he has selected.

Ik was dat eerlijk gezegd wel van plan toen de foto nog in kleur op mijn schern stond.
Maar nadat ik de foto in zwart wit had omgezet en het contrast had aangepast was dat helemaal niet meer nodig!
Ik ben zelf wel blij met het resultaat.

Thank you so very much for your kind comment about my, Mount Princeton and Cottonwood Trees. I am truly humbled by your words. I have never photographed these beautiful trees in the past as they are easily overlooked when the Aspens are in color. Since we missed the Aspens this year we turned to the Cottonwoods for color. Much more difficult to photograph. They are now on my list of fall colors. I hope that you can visit some day to enjoy the beauty of my country, especiallyl Colorado.

As for the picture being dark, I always thought people were crazy when commenting on my images, but then I took a look at a few while at the library. I guess it really depends on the monitor, but I could try lightening them. Thanks for the advice.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried
Also, thanks for commenting on "Trouble with a T".
I cut out the center cow, then switched the image to a b&w. I added yellow and then orange to make it a bit more sepia-ish, followed by substantial decreases in brightness and contrast. I softened the whole thing a great deal to make it seem more abstract, then I patched in the full color cow in the center with normal brightness and contrast. The other cows look like I changed the colors a bit, but the trees and river are the big give away that the environment is not in color.
You asked... :-)

Hi Paul, many thanks for viewing "Citrus Autumn"! Paul, it is so strange, that you would mention 'painting', because I had already thought about that very thing! Your comment prompted me to dedit and add my two favorite artists, Renoir and Monet! Originally, I didn't have that in the description, because I thought it was self-flattery! Thanks, because it does remind me of one of their paintings! Sincerely, Marilyn

.:Your life depends on how you see it; keep a positive state of mind:.
Good question... I believe a good portrait is better as a desktop background then an ordinary flower shot (or what ever). I'm not the best person to ask perhaps since I don't personally use that many backgrounds but the ones I make myself... (What can I say, I like my own style... ^_^) On the other hand I collect thousands of images here as pieces of art I look at from time to time to get inspired of and perhaps one day grow as an artist. :)
I think caedes is not only a site for great desktops but also an "art" and "artist" site. I believe in other words that portraits with artistic merit, definitively your excellent pieces, have a place here. I could say that there are more then a few "snapshot" style images of people here, but I dare say they don't qualify for being considered in this discussion. ;)

Thanks for all your comments on koringkriek! He is about the size of your thumb (4cm - 5cm). They are harmless, but they are known to eat their own kind if there are not enough plants to eat. They are part of the grasshopper family and can be quite a pest as there can be millions of them at one time. The roads get full of them as they come and feast on the ones that got ran over. They can't fly either. No wings like the grasshopper.
