Hi Lela:
I like this shot very much. It would be fun to see the same shot through the four seasons. Funny, I didn't think you had winter in Arizona!

Hi Davide:
Thank you so much for taking the time to give me advice on this, I really appreciate it!
The method you describe is actually fairly similar to what I did do, but the dark background never occurred to me...I would like to try that!
I really liked the results you got with your owl shot. I am just learning about photography and am really enjoying the feedback and ideas.

Thank you for your kind remark. I worry that the highlights are too white in the photo, though. At some point I want to play with this idea and try to recreate the photo with the lighting a little less harsh to see what happens...

Hi Jim:
Thank you for your well thought out comments. I am new to photography, and here to learn! As to the shadow, I thought it would add depth to the photo, so I actually emphasized it! It wasn't until I read your comment that I realized the partial shadow could be distracting. I plan on playing with the photo more so that I can compare the two versions.

Thanks for your comment! Imagine my surprise when President Bush stuck his head right through my office floor one day! You would think a guy like that would have more important things to do...

Hi Sema:
What a beautiful shot, I love the colors! With that tree in the foreground, it almost acts as an abstract shot. Thank you for sharing it, I am looking forward to seeing more of your work in the future.

The shot is a great abstract compositionally as well as color wise before knowing the subject. To find out what created those stripes just adds to this amazing shot. Into my favorites it goes!

Hi Gustavo:
Thanks for your comments. I am wishing I remembered her name. She is an Indian maiden overlooking the Columbia River, just north of Portland, Oregon. In the other photo of the statue, you can see her looking at the I5 bridge. Lewis and Clark came through here on their journey west, this statue may have to do with that...
