tnx
Dys..and Francis you guys made me snarf my drink!
Loved that Zamboni pix! Thanks for that reminder about the correction. I spelled it right in one spot but wrong 2x where it's most visible. My friend actually owns that silver Porsche Carrera car. I almost lost my mind when I drove it ONE time! That car holds the road like a cat holds onto drapes! Non-turbo, too.

The photos... well, I believe we have a similar eye. I particularly like the bark photos (80) (57) and the simplicity of the shots within nature - I see images like that in my every day - as opposed to the normal scenic shots, I look at surroundings in a more abstract way I suppose (well, abtract - or obscure - I'm not sure what I do).
I loved the silohette yacht... (16) (14) definitely my sorta image. And the Grand Canyon (91) - love that.
(80) Subway - yep yep yep
(73) that should be a M.I.L.K. card....that is the sort of image I send to my soulmate sister - just fab
(70) beautiful - portrait with so much "natural" - stunning
(67) the date on the building and the clock - time.... I don't see the image as such, but the "time-line" within the image (if you see what I mean) - again - just the type of photo I would take
(50) (26) (13) and others..... simple and beautiful
(40) ...of course
(23) (11) - love them
(5) - great setup and colour contrast with reflection
(2) - yep, I do that.

I'm looking over the numbers of the ones you commented on so I can associate your comments.
#2: as is typical for B&W, online presentation does this little justice; this image has texture, tonality. I hand printed this back in the day of my chemical-based darkroom back when I had that in full operation. It was one does well in juried art shows.
#5: a product shot but one that I enjoyed setting up and also looking at or giving to friends as a gift.
#11: interesting..an obscured-by-clouds solar eclipse that was rescued.
#13: was sailing on sister ship across the water from the subject in Key West sunset sailing excursion (was 3 sheets to the wind myself).
#14: one of my faves and currently one of my most well-received. Taken in my old back-yard, but not a set-up. Has won an art award.
#16: Taken on Key West FLA vacation 5yrs ago and on the weekend I got my favorite new toy....upgraded digital SLR camera.
#23: love doing late-night sessions while creating abstracts from every-day subjects.
#26: that time of the season/year where walking in downtown Saratoga Springs, NY with (camera) eye open on surroundings.
#40: my (late) meditating kitty...RIP. Always a willing subject.
#50 all the birch bark and birch tree photo will be part of a series. I see those patterns as almost a psychology Rorsharc (blotch) test..becoming a canvas of their own.
#60 one of my fave foliage trips of all time to So. Vermont.
#67 fun architectural exploring trip in Saratoga Springs NY
#70 a commercial TV image capture, believe it or not.
#73 Russian relatives...(bwahahaha)
#91 all of these Grand Canyon images were a joy and a wonderful to behold in person. Hoping to sell a million of them and travel there again and to Sedona!
Oops!. That reminds me to include some Sedona AZ pix I forgot to put on the site.
Just A2K - I dabble - I wish I could do it for real tho.
