thanks for sharing it

JF

Absolutely stunning, Dolores. A definite winner!

Winner's circle for sure on this one, Dolores! Great work!!

Good morning, Karen!! Thanks so much for initiating a most beautiful comment on my photo! I appreciate it immensely!

Bonjour Jean-François!! Merci!! I appreciate your praise and support very much. THank you for gracing my image with your kind post.

Greetings Joy!! And many thanks to you too! I just finished commenting on your image and I discover you have already posted on mine! So sweet you are! Thank you so much!!

Hi CArolyn...I just finished commenting on your sunset and find you here too! Thanks soooo much! I appreciate you!

This one is a classic beauty, Dolores. :) Is this you? It's about time for a self portrait, don't you think? :)

I thought the same as Kathleen. Is it you?

A very good job again. Your lighting and composition are great.

Just lovely Dolores!

Greetings Kathleen!! Thank you so much! Nope...it's not me (sorry), but my oldest daughter. I do have a self portrait but I don't like it...(I hate pictures of myself!). I have it posted at a couple sites but I think it 's dorky. I appreciate your post immensely, Kathleen! Stay warm....here it seems the cold air will never go away!

Hi Mette!! Naw..it isn't me...I'm just too critical when it comes time to pictures of myself. She's my eldest...and we had a great time shooting. Thank you, Mette for complimenting my lighting (we were outside) and composition. It means alot that you think highly of my image. Have a great day!

Dolores thank you! you have the eye every photographer should have! the way you look at life and subjects is incredible! I wish I could see things half as well as you! I love your gallery! great shots pure and minimalistic.keep up the good work thanks again!

That's the right title DN. That's what this image is all about. Wowwy, lady. That G1 is cool, ain't it? I just picked up a G2 at a bargain price and I'm headed for the Oregon Coast again, this weekend. I hope to come back with a few trophies. AGAIN, EXCELLENT WORK - you shooter you.

Dolores, I agree this is an excellent shot! Great play of colors and very vivid. Looking throught the entries, this one really caught my eye.

Thank YOU, Paul!! What a wonderful thing to say... you are too kind! A heartfelt thank you for your high praise..it means the world to me! Taking time to grace my image with such a complimentary post is a treasure! THAnk you so much!!

Greetings BT!! Thank you so much, my friend! Yes, the G1 is cool...though it's been upgraded twice now! A G-2 eh?? Excellent choice! What WERE you shooting with BT?? Is this your first digital?? I have no doubt you'll come back with a few trophies...you shooter you! (Thanks again!) Have fun on the Oregon Coast!

Greetings to you, Wendy! Thank you so much for taking valuable time for a complimentary post on this image. I'm rather fond of it myself..it's my daughter. We had such fun doing it! Many thanks and have a great day!

I've been using a Fujifilm 2400 Z digital. Its OK, but not enough functionality for me right now. Boy, you sure make that G1 sing though. Seeya later DN.

Thank you, BT. I think you'll do great with the G2. (my best feature is the flip out LCD) I'm ready for the Cadillac of cameras (IMHO)...the Canon EOS 1Ds (11 mps)....the body alone sells for $7000 and I still have to purchase an arsenal of lenses. Guess I will have to wait!

Bravo for the Finalist, Dolores !

I am sure that it will be ..... still better placed :)
