Cheers - JB

The evolution thing always kinda amazed me too..... in this case, the dog came first, and the sofa was purchased just for him. Your portfolio is amazing David. Thanks for checking out some of my "stuff".

Which came first the sofa or the dog 
He blends in perfectly.
Isnt nature amazing, who would have thought greyhounds and sofas would have evolved in such a similar way
Heaps of praise for saving him as well.

Karen,
If I had been there I bet you anything my photo would of come out way more blurry than this one. I hate tripods cause they slow me down. I take as little supplies possible when I go out. When I find an ideal place to shoot I get excited and I don't slow down.
A friend of mine as been "yelling" at me to bring a tripod when I go out and only now I am starting to see his point. I come home and play in photo shop, but by the time I get done cropping and such there are few pixels left to make a decent print. My new mantra is going to be "In camera, MMMMmmmm (eyes closed), In camera, Mmmmmm......"

Alisa... I wish you HAD been there..... with a more "controllable" camera. You could have done this little fella justice.
My Nikon, while it has many settings,and choices, many available options....simply takes way too long to maneuver through all the menus to make the necessary changes. Frogs, as long as their legs are working, do not tend to hang around long, especially with a potential predator with a one-eyed shiny black box invading their space.
When I go back to that spring, I'll be fully prepared, with tripod, macro lens, and remote shutter release.... so I can stay dry, the frog can stay calm and the pic can be focused. But I am glad I was able to witness the tiny things hitchin' rides on floating leaves. I went there to get some pics of beavers chewing down trees... and found frogs too.
Happy snapping!

I like this portrait. The subject looks strong and unafraid. Her direct gaze into the camera is unflinching, and seems unapologetic for a life fully lived.
The toning adds an alternate view. It is like something seems out of place and you can't quite figure out what it is. In this case, the tension adds interest.
I'm less enthusiastic about the texture. Once you've seen it, you'll start to see it everywhere, enough that it looks gimicky and has a 'been there/used that filter' feel. You don't need the texturing to make this photo work. It is bold enough to stand alone without the treatment.
The photo on itself is captivating.

I like this a lot. The expression of a strong woman is emphasized by the texture and tone - and yet it is soft, expressive and artistic. Poetry and a long story live in this excellent image. In other words, it rocks. To my favorites. Cheers!

As an artistic type image this one certainly has merit, but as a nature image it is too blurry. I would crop some off the right side and bottom so that the subject is not so centered. The colour tones and the subject matter are pleasing, but the composition and focus need some work.

Karen,
What drew me to this photo was it's delicate nature and warm colors working together.
I am however noticing a bit of blur to this.
So, you are hiking along, in low light and you don't have a tripod (often my case), what do you do? With my digital I set the ISO to 400 and the aperture to the lowest possible. As you have noticed with mine, this doesn't always work.
I was also thinking that your subject might benefit if you zoomed in on him so he won't get lost in his surroundings. Not an easy task while trying to remain stable and staying at least half dry. What a find. It must of been an exciting experiance. This city girl would love a crack at this.
Alisa
