hmm, are you trying to convince me to go with the LR once the trial is over?
i had an interesting conversation yesterday about digital photography. my friend pointed out that it's the chip in the camera that makes the photos color, but they're all B&W for "real," and if you want to be the AUTHOR of your photo, it's ok to manipulate it.
but i didn't really object to photo manipulation from a purist standpoint, more that i just wondered if i should lose any more time that way, because i could envision myself spending hours!
Of all the quotes you used it was the last one that has really stayed with me. We shed our innocence in the process of acquiring maturity only to shed part of the magic we're surrounded by, too.
Greetings from London.
Somebody is having a lot of fun with photo manipulation!
I love all the quotes you used. They all speak a truth.
Yesterday I just had a discussion with a friend about the point julochka made. She said the same issue applies to music - is it really pure when it's been manipulated? I say, it is another tool for the artist to use.
I'm going into the studio today with "My spirit has ways of seeing that my eyes cannot comprehend." Philippe Benichou....thank you
Gorgeous! Gorgeous! When we get together, I want a tutorial on photo manipulation. Of course I will lack your awesome skills of pairing a beautiful image with an eloquent comment but I gotta start somewhere. Have a great Friday and enjoy the weekend!
Thank you.
Edgar Degas is speaking to me. ; )
These are beautiful, love. My photography teacher always asks me "what do want other to see?"
Anyways, I hit post too quick. Dang it.
My teacher asks "what do you want others to see?" I also ask myself, what do I want others to feel.
I love the picture with the reflection in the water. It seems like those pictures with the reflections, always speak to me the most.
Again, these are just beautiful.
wow. i am so impressed. in awe. these are gorgeous, each and every one. your photography combined with an incredible ability to choose THE best quotes is extraordinary. just lit up my day. thank you dear tangobaby.
Such a nice compilation - thank you! x
This is a lovely post. All the way around. Everything about you. Just lovely.
Like you.
I loved this. When BB and I upload photos and look at them together, we both see different things. It's an interesting experience to see what he notices and thinks would improve the photo and then for him to listen to mine. We always like our own photos best!
Margie is supposed to be getting me a copy of Lightroom, I can't wait!
Just beautiful - both the images and the words that accompany them.
I hope you're starting to feel better, T-baby.
It's amazing how different manipulations bring out different, hidden aspects of the individual photo. :-)
Incredible how the different shadings and colour choices create such different images. All are beautiful. xoxox
this is a beautiful post, and it's very interesting to see how the mood of the photos change with the different effects.
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are. ~ Anais Nin
blog of note surf brought me to you
hello ~~~~,
I probably quote Anais Nin even more than Carl Sagan in this blog.
Here is a post where I used that quote (it's one of my favorites):

Thanks for visiting.
Seeing what is under our noses is sometimes the most amazing thing to see -- so often we can run around the world to see so much any yet in the smallest of things there is so much beauty. Thanks for capturing these here :-)
Warmest

your blog reminds me my old days . . .
