"Also, I understand neither the Before and After flowers, " The before picture was suppose to be a normal picture properly exposed. The after picture was to be an artist interpretation but fell short of what I would have done in Photoshop.

Maybe the political scene has something to do with it? Anyway, quick comments on three of them. Before that, just have to say, I wish there were more comments/descriptions with the images. Images don't need titles, but background comments are often very interesting.

Lew Schwartz - Black Pond Road Oooh. Dark. Great texture. . . I see this as a background for an old master painting but not so much a photograph as such.. John Retallack - Fools Boot Also very dark. . . but here I would only get it as a study of light. George Brown - IR experiment Very interesting experiment, to see the shapes and textures of the greenery. (Hooray for black and white.). To me, the watermark is very distracting. Also, I understand neither the Before and After flowers, nor the Nixon Mask. -yoram |
