who are the painters and photographers on A2K? tell....

VIVIEN-I AM NOT AT ALL FACILE WITH PHOTOSHOP. I USE A LITE VERSION WHICH HAS FEW EXTRA CAPABILITIES. I DO NEED TO LEARN PSHOP SOMETIME.
ANOTHER PROBLEM IS SCANNING BIIIG WATERCOLORS (32 X48") IM USING ROLLED WATERCOLOR PAPAER NOW AND , WELL, SCANNER BEDS ARE TEENY.

ILL TRY SOME LINKS SOON, RIGHT NOW IM BACKED UP WITH OTHER WORK THAT I SHOULD BE DOING INSTEAD OF HAVING FUN ON A2K.

The other photo of Machu Picchu disappeared, so I'll try it here. c.i.

That's Machu Picchu ?

A FEW PIX ON THIS SITE . . .

Vivien, Here's another site where I put up a few pix (see page 2 of photos). Click on any one of them to see it larger - only the Guadalajara House is small. Guess that's how I input it. I'll check the URL to see if it works. Are you looking for anything in particular? Or, just anything and everything with a view? And, having fun? Name it, and we'll all thumb the glossies to see what we have that might be of interest. My own personal favorite is that pix of Chichén Ítza on www.starkc.com - I'm here, but my heart is there . . . always!!! Enjoy!!!

I love this, glad you started it, Vivien. You must know there is a certain fear afoot for people to post their (our) stuff, but what the hell. CI, you are mixing up, that is the image for the Garden thread you have going....

Not to natter, as I am Ms. Slow. Ok, Ok, maybe I will post a few right here, but only if they translate ok, and not for sev days, say, the weekend. I am no genius, just was on this site early and am enthused, so you see my name a lot.

Oh, and by the way, you are corresponding with someone who trashed her photoshop by mistake.

If we accumulate links, I'll put them into the Helpful Links Featured Topic, and nag me if I forget.

Sorry. I'm using a photo web site that doesn't distinguish between one photo to the next even though I copy and past the Properties from different photos. Will hvae to try something else. c.i.

*** I hope this works this time!

Not easy to link or copy this

husker, Those Maui Flowers are called proteas. c.i.

CI-NO LINKS HAVE SHOWN UP. WHERE RE YOUR PICS OF MACHU PICHU?

I'm afraid the "Webshots" site I'm using is worthless. The photo stays on for a few minutes, then disappears after I log off A2K. Sorry. c.i

I'm trying a Epson photo site. I hope the picture stays on. c.i.

It's fascinating seeing other peoples work.

Your picture stayed on ci but very smaaaalllll.

Osso your posts are always interesting so keep going! and i look forward to seeing your work. Shame about Photoshop - it is well worth getting to grips with as it is very creative.

Farmerman - you can scan in pieces and carefully put a piece back together on screen - fiddly but possible.

Charli - no I'm not looking for anything in particular - just what kind of work people do. I love visiting galleries and seeing other peoples work as well as creating my own.

CI, IS THERE A WAY I CAN MAKE YOUR SHOT BIGGER? I LOVE SHOTS OF MACHU PICHHU

VIVIEN, VIVIEN, VIVIEN!!!
Vivien, Vivien, Vivien . . . you are one "darn fine" artist!!! Just looked at your Geo Cities site. Sorry I don't have time tonight to look at all of your other sites. I LOVE the top center painting on the Home Page - "Sea Rocks, Seascape"? Can you put up the titles under the pix? What are the sizes, the medium, . . . prices? Beautiful!!! Congratulations!!! You go!!![/color]

Will come back and look at all the links but, glad to see bunches of shutterbugs around and about. Ive got a few pics out and about here and there but, havent tried linking to them as of lately...if I get a few hours, Ill give it a try.
If you guys get one of those Canon digitals ...firstly Ill drool with great envy...then Ill ask a million and a half questions but really just basically want to know how well it works. Ive been using the old EOS600 series for ..ahem... like 20 years (tis true!) and have yet to find optics with such clarity with combined quickness. Also, been working with digi files from Nikon higher end digital camera and ... argh.... has these spots...makes me nuts!!! Its weddings so..oh yes nice black dots work well on white dresses...blah. Anyway...keep me informed...perhaps Ill get a fortune and be able to buy one.
Lets see...I keep really going back to landscape stuff to get me excited, it just never fails really. There have been more timies when Ive just been driving down the street and either pull over and pull out a camera, wish I had one, or wonder if who I was driving with would spend the ride with me asking to stop every ten feet?
Upon graduation many moons ago I wanted to do Industrial Commercial/Fashion and all kinds of large format stuff.....yeah..right! Anyway...have run the gammut from professional lab tech (of all formats/technology) to Retail Portrait Studios to weddings/functions and onto studio work mostly of model portfolios and boudoir with a few family and senior works.
I really do (crazy enough as it sounds) love working with the kids, doing candids at functions, and the lab stuff....Im just a junkie I guess.
Nice to know I have company though.

farmerman, THIS IS 150 PERCENT OF THE ORIGINAL. HOPE YOU CAN SEE IT NOW. c.i.

Does this fly? It does, it does!!! My most favorite photo in the whole world. Guess where the huge rusty 55-gallon oil drum was!!! This pix is up as wallpaper on the "main" computer here. My heart is always "there."

Maybe tomorrow I'll put up my masterpiece of pontillism artwork that I did a few years ago. One little black dot at a time. If you can't wait to see it, go to http://www.starkc.com and also "Duh cat" pencil drawing. [/color]

Vivian, I like your seascapes. Here's one I think you'll enjoy. Taken at the Galapagos at sunset. c.i.
