Hi Katja,

Love your work, you have a very good eye.
The one of Eilean Donan Castle is right up jonH's street, great sky. As Creator said in your hello post the Dads Hand pic is lovely simple but very effective.
If your into Macro (and it looks like you are) you'll fit in very well, we have some real Macro guys, Adam for one and Sean is another to name just a few.

Can't wait to see some more of your work,

Mike

Hi guys, thank you very much for your praises.
PDT_Aliboronz_11

It´s really nice to hear that somebody else likes my photos (except family and friends).
I´ll do my very best PDT_Aliboronz_15

(do you know "Dinner for one", by the way?).

Adam, I had a look at your website. You have some truly wonderful photos there. Of course, I like your macro shots
(especially web 1), but the "Westerminster and London eye"
shots are equally wonderful, especially "Big Ben B&W. The sea gull
in the left corner is certainly the icing on the cake in a perfect photo.
I wonder if you have added the bird later in photoshop. If not, you were really lucky to capture such a photo.

hi flowergirl!

thanks for taking a look at my photos...just wish i has a "proper" site to display them in like yours...something for me to do this year i think!

a lot of people ask about that seagull!!! the truth is, between me and you!, the seagull was there, thats how it was taken, but the sky has been changed!!! (it was washed out in the original) no one picks up on that cos they are always questioning the seagull..!!

whats "Dinner for one" ?!?!?!?

Hi Adam, the sky fits the image very well.
I´ve supposed that you may not know "Dinner for One": it´s a funny tv-short film which is broadcasted here every New Year´s eve. A very old lady helds a party for her 90th birthday (I think that´s the subtitle, maybe you know that?!), she invited her old friends, who are long dead, so she is alone with the butler who has to serve food and drinks for the
(obviously) absent guests and herself. As he is expected to "play" the role of the guests over the evening he gets more and more drunk.
The running gag is "Same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie", then the reply "Same procedure as every year, James". In the end he has to bring the lady upstairs... ("I´ll do my very best"). The male actor is Freddy Frinton (can´t remember the female actor). It´s broadcasted in English, so I suppose it originates from Great Britain. It must be about 40 years old, but still very funny. It belongs to New Year´s eve like fireworks.
Wishing you a very nice evening. Katja
