I there Barry. To me, this reached the level where you could/should sell a poster, the highest level of a professional shot and a concept executed beautifully. Gave this one a rare seven.

Howdy James,
I think the hardest thing for you will be to find another photographer who can do you justice the way you've done justice to the models and the fashion in your portfolio.
Overall, always wonderful to see a UF photographer that you can stare at.
that dang white hat really pops.

Hey there Mohammad;
This is a great DoF shot, I think this style is always best for florals. Incredible soft lighting on this one as well. This shot reminds me of Narabia Monika Kozlows (http://www.usefilm.com/photographer.asp?ID=28979) - quite good.

For your consideration - masking in zones to pop the contrast.

Hey CW, LCiT;
Bold, the sound must have been impressive. Great view from the window, eh. Although the IR gives a nice black and white I wish I could have seen this in color, given the amount of streaming light from the clouds.

Konika Minolta was aquired by Sony. Sony is releasing a new body which should have the matching threads for your lenses, so not all is lost. Do some seaching on "Konika Minola Bought Out".

Ha, not crackle filter, looks kind of simular. Instead this is a program that creates random squares until the whole image is filled in. I did this five times then layered all five together to get some transparency in there.

Hi Ina:
I really like the framing and backlighting as well as the crisp detail and bold color on this little birdie. They are often so fast and fleeting that this shot is really a great achievement to a real challenge. Well shot, great photograph. Some might scowl at the highlights but for me it's more important to bring out the details of the bird the way you have it.

Death rides a bicycle. Somewhat appropriate if the horse left death behind in the desert.

Amen brother, I was thinking there was no end to those cyanoscapes, as thrilling as they are, I would think that you've run out of paint by now...
This one's nice - a vacation from the current weather.

Always magical shots - this time did you use light painting to get the foreground or was it car headlights?

Not a lot of change to the cityscape overall, but in the details construction finished on two large buildings downtown, and the holiday lights are not in the newest shot.
You have to look at the full rez shot to even see these details.

Robert -
When I looked at the horizon it appeared as if it was not level - maybe a half degree twisted clockwise, the right a smidgen lower than the left. could just be me.

Amazing - really great comp, great tones, good lighting, everything you would need for a great shot. I took the time to cherish this shot a bit and zone mask it in PS, bringing out details here and there. Just a little TLC.

Hey Robert,
Great IR shots here in the portfolio, I really like the composition of this one especially with the winding road receding into space. Only noticed that maybe there is a .5 degree CW twist?

Huh, was able to get HugIn to work without blending today. PTGui is open source and free - still seems overly complicated.
I did shoot something to stitch tonight.

Great stitch - normally a ND grad and polarizers are no-nos, but this seems to have combined cleanly. Really enjoy the color.
