A splended photo and interesting building.
I wish I could visit London some day again.
It seemes to me that I havnt seen almost anything of it.
True it is, of course.

I still must say, that the upper dark edge is somehow "on my way".
I do not see a reason for it to be there.

I have never bothered my head with the question: What the face detection is ?

Or why is it needed at all ?
Does it somehow help to get the face in a better focus choosing suitable DOF ???


Somewhere I heard "smile detection" - what a hell this is ? Or does it exist at all ?
(No need to answer actually to this - I do not care. I do not expect everybody grinning on my photos )

I do agree, that main place for getting CC is Your Photos.
I post there, when I would like to see the reaction. Neg and pos.
And when other photos get my attention I will comment. I try to comment also photos where I see not many or any resposnses and I am able to think out some comment I really try How else the contacts are created ?
I cant help, that there are themes, that I am not interested... There other people for that

I started posting and LOOKING galery quite recently. And I do it not too often. For me it is mostly a way to get photos to my portfolio. This is the aim. But it is pleaant to see comments there as well. Ususlly I have got the comments already in the competition or YourPhoto section.

I think everything works for me quite well.
Notification of the gallery comments would make it perfect.

I had to learn posting the pics as well. This was my first meet with Photobucket and flickr as well. Everything can be learned and then it is not difficult any more
And if you post not too many of them, it is not so time consuming and there is more hope to get some objective CC.

Yes its bit mystic.
But when I look at him....it seemes to me that HE cant see very well.
It makes me a bit uncomfy. (Because I believe that in reality he can see)
Sure it is, the portrait draws attention.

No, I am not even close of feeling offended ! I do not see any reason for that

I just am not aware of how "sure" flickr is. I have no idea how easy it is to get the pics without permission. ( Never tried )
I understand, that for a proffessionals there are much more problems.
I think (hope) that my photos are not so outstanding to catch the eye of pirates. Just simple downloads are prevented and those who steal systematically and make money of it - maybe they find "better" objects.
Poor "better" photographers !

This forum is much more unsure - anyone can download from gallery or YourPhotos without any problem.
At the moment the fun and knowledge I get from here is greater than the fear of sb using my pics.

But I would be defenetly not in good mood, when I find sb making money with my photo !!! Or showing it as his/her own !

You are welcome !

1. The eyes seem just a bit out of focus - if compared to the hair, eyebrows ?! Isnt it ? It makes him look somehow "misty".

2. Ineresting coast. Havent seen such IRL.
Nice sun-color. Sky adds a lot.

You have been quite busy recently.
Nice to see your pics again

bright & sparkling

Yes, thats the way I took it

Photo, digi-art and painting are all different.
Everyone has got its value. And to be good at any of these, you need to have skills and talent.

I personaly am fond of photo and also art (actualy most of all pastels and coal). Talent is another question.... I wish I had more
It does not mean, that I refuse seeing sth nice in digi art.

If I told that the pic made me wishing to take a brush .... NB ! Brush not Elements ! then I ment it.

Nice

It makes me wish to take pencil and brush.... not Elements....


(it is positive comment ! )
