Dear Jo!

I really love this... I see why you had to shoot it! And the postion of the couple on the seat with the sun setting behind them gives them an air of something so intimate,romantic and special!

Therefore, my friend, please do not be cross with me that I have taken the liberty of "featuring" this intimacy by cropping the image and placing more focus onto the couple.
I feel that the third person in the scene is almost an "intruder" on the romatic rose-coloured glasses slant I have on this! :)

I am not saying in any way that my cropped version is "better"... I am just really showing you the part of this fine photo that most stands out to me...

Thank you for your indulgence.
(And please don't swear at me.. lol...)
Aniko :)

Joanna Lamb   {K:1312} 4/19/2007
That is just so sweet Aniko! Thanks so much for taking the time to work on my photo - really very much appreciated m'dear. Promise won't swear at you? ;-) I think it is better actually...thank you my dear friend. Hope you're well. I'll be catching up with your portfolio soon! Big hugs, Jxx


Joanna Lamb   {K:1312} 4/19/2007
Thank you Matthew!


Joanna Lamb   {K:1312} 4/19/2007

Thank you so much Iman. Very much appreciated! Cheers, Jo x


Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 4/20/2007
You're really kind Dear Jo...

I don't actually think it's "better", the crop I made... as much of the splendour of the rest of the image is lost with this tight crop. It think one of my greatest (romantic me) problems I found was the "three is a crowd"... I don't know these people. Perhaps they were all there together as friends, family, whatever. I have just shown you my feelings re this magnificent image; and had I shot it, I would have been hard pressed to decide on what to do with it (because of the third person). I don't like cloning people out of an image in PS, though I would have been tempted, and cropping a bit off the viewing left side and bottom... The reason I don't like cloning people out of an image is symbolic I guess. It feels as though I am rubbing them out of existence. And yes, I am totally insane! But I have strong and odd feelings and a conscience. LOL!

I will now shut up... :)

Warm Hugs to you my friend,
Aniko :)


Joanna Lamb   {K:1312} 4/20/2007
Ok so I'm not believing it but I'm just so glad I've met someone as insane as me!! I totally understand what you're saying! It can be such a curse huh?!

Warmest hugs my dear Aniko. Jx

PS When I was travelling in Aus I heard Queenslanders described as 'mad as a bag of cut snakes'!!! LOL! One of my fave expressions! You live in such a beautiful country - altho I haven't been to Victoria sadly - and you are from one of the most beautfiul places I have visited - well I've only been to Budapest but loved it there! Anyhoo - catch up soon - my turn to shut up! x
