Hola mi querida amiga! pero que hermosa foto!
Estoy perdido y renegando con este nuevo UseFilm que además de muy incómodo no anda para nada bien y tiene muchas inconsistencias y fallas...

En fin, veremos si pueden mejorarlo.

Te dejo un gran abrazo!

Hi Linda!!! Beautiful shot! I like the lighting and the clarity! Perfect composition!
I see Your taking a break from the site! Not a bad idea until all the bugs are worked out!(many)
I am trying to be optimistic but the site is much more of a hassel to navigate than before and is just as slow!
I'm really hoping they can work out the problems soon!
Have a great CHRISTmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year!!!Take care Friend!...........John

Lovely ibis image, it looks so... heavenly! It seems from a fairytale, because of the mysterious lighting and background. I love the colors and the overall atmosphere. Did you know they were sacred birds in ancient Egypt? Have a wonderful time Linda, and hugs and Happy Holidays! Ina

Rashed Abdulla   {K:153633} 12/20/2005
very beautiful capture,great composition,very best best regards my freind.


Ann Nida   {K:45230} 12/20/2005
A beautiful capture of this bird. He looks like he's posing for you looking right into the camera. I love the darker background as it makes him really stand out. Great DOF and colours. This is so nice it could be a greeting card. It must be rare to find such a bird in a tree. I thought these birds were usually ground dwellers. At least most of the photos I've seen of these types of birds have mostly been on the ground so it's refreshing to see this one in the tree. Very nice shot Linda.

I hope you have a Very Merry Christmas and Good Health, Peace and Happiness in the New Year ahead. Thank you for your good wishes on my Christmas greeting card also.

Cheers - Ann :)

Merry Christmas Kathy, don't feel bad I haven't been around much lately either, and I'm still not getting email notices of comments, so I just found this..sorry!! I'll be back after the New Year to take a look at your wonderful work, Happy New Year to you and yours! Hugs!!


György Szönyi   {K:8347} 12/27/2005
Very good picture, Linda, congratulations. I like the vignetting, the DOF, and, of course the bird which is a great character. I think this photo is a good magazine piece. Cheers, György


Rina     {K:26519} 12/28/2005
Hi again Linda! I'm getting notified of all comments (at least, I thinks so...), just takes me forever before I get a chance to check my email. Now I'm fighting my parents for pc time!!! :))

If you're still not receiving them though, better to email Al directly and ask him to look into it for you.

Take care babe!
Ciao :)


Mary Brown   {K:67833} 12/31/2005
There is a beautiful tone to this, Linda. I really like your composition with the tree branch mirroroing the bird's curved beak. It has a very gentle feel. Wonderful.
Mary


Kevin Christensen   {K:3891} 1/5/2006
Linda,

great capture! I love the way you used the yellowish coloring and the slight vignette (spelling?) around the edges to add a great mood to the shot.

good job!

-Kevin
