Stormy Evening For Kota Kinabalu
THERE ARE FEW PHOTOS THAT CAN COMPARE TO THIS ONE. IT IS PERFECT IN EVERY RESPECT. THE PALM, THE SKY, THE COLOR OF THE TILE ROOFS, THEY CREATE WHAT I CALL THE PERFECT "ART PHOTOGRAPH." CONGRATULATIONS TO THIENZIEYUNG. THIS IS A CLASSIC AND WOULD BE A WINNER IN ALMOST ANY CONTEST IT ENTERED.

I Spy with my little eye...A Frog.
What a marvelous photograph, a miniature materpiece of this natural and magnificent world in which we dwell. This tiny creature so unaware of the camera's eye, a blessing, a delight for our eyes in a season. Great capture

Dusk
MY FIRST IMPRESSION COULD WELL HAVE BEEN: "WHERE ARE THE PYRAMIDS? BUT OF COURSE I KNEW IT WAS THE INTRACOASTAL BECAUSE THAT WAS WHAT I HAD ENTERED IN MY SEARCH. NONETHELESS, IT IS ONE MARVELOUS WORK. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT IS NOT PERFECT ABOUT THIS IMAGE? CONGRATULATIONS TO phil c80 for this fantastic shot.
Blue and Yellow
Autumn was once my favorite season. As a youth, I marveled at how blue the sky was in October. The Midwestern sky in October is as blue as blue can be without being scarry. As time passed and summers passed into one autumn after another, I began to understand that autumn leaves, no matter how beautiful they were, symbolized time. It was a time that could not be stored--it was time that was gone. And the memories became as the leaves, some blowing in the wind, some buried to multiply their kind.

DAY TRIP THROUGH THE MEADOW
DAY TRIP THROUGH THE MEADOW
A TRIP THROUGH THE MEADOW SOON AFTER SPRING BEGAN REVEALED NOTHING NEW, NOTHING I DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW; IT WAS MORE THAN JUST ANOTHER DAY, IT WAS A DAY TRIP I HADN'T TAKEN FOR SO LONG, I COULDN'T SAY WHAT YEAR IT WAS WHEN LAST I WALKED THROUGH MEADOW GRASS AS HIGH AS MY CHIN. BUT THAT WAS THEN, TOO LONG AGO TO RECALL THE SCENT OF MEADOW GRASS IN BLOOM, THE SUDDEN START OF A GRASSHOPPER'S JOURNEY INTO THE BEGINNING OF A SUMMER ROMANCE FAR FROM THE RED BARN'S SHADOW, FAR FROM THE FARMER'S HOUSE, FAR FROM THE FUTURE WHERE I WALKED WITHOUT A FEAR OF WHAT HAPPENS AFTER LIFE, FAR FROM WHERE I THOUGHT I THOUGHT I WOULD BE OR WHAT I WOULD BE ON A LATE SPRING DAY, SOME SIXTY YEARS FROM THEN, TOO FAR TO EVER EVEN HALF SUPPOSE I WOULD SOMEHOW STAY SEVEN, OR SO IT SEEMED FOREVER, SO ANXIOUS TO GROW UP AND GO SEE MUCH MORE THAN BARNS AND GRASS THAT WAS HIGHER THAN MY HEAD.

truly one work of art that expresses a classic appreciation for nature and the proper pose. The natural elements in this image is one reason life on earth has been such a joyful experience. Robert L. Huffstutter

REDEFINING THE TERM "ART PHOTOS"
ART IS BY NO MEANS ALL THERE IS WITHIN THE CONTENTS OF AN IMAGE SNAPPED ON A BUSY CITY STREET. NO, AS ALL PHOTOGRAPHERS KNOW, IT IS THE EYE OF THE CAMERA THAT IS TRAINED BY THE EYES OF THE ONE WHO POINTS THE CAMERA THAT DETERMINES WHAT IS ART AND WHAT IS NOT.

One to the other
THIS IMAGE OFFERS A DEFINITIVE PERSPECTIVE OF THE "ART PHOTO" AT ITS FINEST WHEN VIEWING ART PHOTOS THROUGH SUCH A WINDOW OF THIS GENRE

circle of life
TRULY... a masterful piece of art...and a must have for every serious collector of art...There is both joy and agony in this image. Only an artist who has experienced the intensity of both joy and grief could have created such an image. Note the sharp angles of the shoulders that supports this CIRCLE OF LIFE. STUDY IT FOR CONTRAST, ANGLES AND FLEXIBILITY. STUDY IT FOR DESIGN. ONCE IN A CENTURY, SUCH AN IMAGE IN ART IS CREATED. HOPEFULLY, WARMSHOULDER49 WILL REVEAL THE ENTIRE SERIES.
Window
IT IS NOT THE WINDOW THAT QUALIFIES THIS IMAGE FOR ITS EXCELLENCE, IT IS THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S CHOICE OF SELECTING THIS PHOTO FOR PRESERVATION AND EXHIBITION
DAVID KYLE CRAIG, ONE OF CALIFORNIA'S FINEST PHOTOGRAPHERS HAS LONG DEMONSTRATED HIS EXCELLENCE IN CHOICE OF SUBJECTS. FROM HIS BEACHFRONT PHOTOS TO HIS MOUNTAINTOP VISTAS, DAVE CONTINUES TO PROVIDE A WIDE ARRAY OF INTERESTING AND BREATHTAKING PHOTOGRAPHS.
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT PLACE THIS PHOTO ON THE LEVEL OF AN "ART PHOTO," IT IS, BY MY CHOICE, NOT ONLY AN ART PHOTO BUT A PHOTO THAT HAS AN APPEAL TO THE TACTILE SENSES.
CAN YOU IMAGINE THE CARE ONE WOULD USE IF ONE DECIDED TO RUN ONE'S PALM OVER THE SURFACE OF THESE AGED BOARDS. SO, IT IS NOT A PHOTO THAT ONE STANDS BACK WITH ADMIRATION AND SIGHS "AWWWW," IT IS A PHOTO THAT, WITH A BIT OF IMAGINATION, ONE MIGHT TIGHTEN UP THE MUSCLES AND SAY "OUCH." THIS IS DEFINITELY WORTHY OF MUCH ATTENTION AND ADMIRATION.

GIFT FERN WANTS TO GO WEST

DSCN0095 pikniked
THIS IS PRESENTLY A MOST FAVORITE PHOTO. IT WILL REMAIN A FAVORITE THAT IS FILED IN MY MIND. SUBCONSCIOUSLY, I MUST CONFESS, I WILL BE KEEPING MIND'S EYE OPEN TO SEEKING A SIMILAR SCENE TO CAPTURE. TO LANDSCAPERS AND FLOWER GARDENERS, KEEP YOUR EYES TRAINED ON RANDOM BRICKS AND ROCKS. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU LIKE; YOU KNOW WHAT FOILAGE AND FLORAL CREATIONS YOU LIKE. SO COMBINE THEM IN REALITY AND THEN HAVE FUN PHOTOGRAPHING THEM IN VARIOUS MODES, IN VARIOUS LIGHTS. PAINTERS, IT'S UP TO YOU WHO CAN CONTROL THE LIGHT WITH A SECOND WASH OR NO WASH. CONGRATULATIONS TO jhhymas FOR TAKING TIME TO PHOTOGRAPH THIS SCENE. THERE IS A LOT OF CONTRASTING ELEMENTS IN THIS PHOTO, ANOTHER REASON IT IS, IN MY OPINION, AN ART PHOTO.

Victim Hood By James Robinson 2007
"THIS IS ONE OF THOSE PIECES OF ART THAT ONE VIEWS AT A DISTANCE FOR AWHILE. AND THEN, IN DUE TIME, ONE APPROACHES IT SLOWLY WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT ONLY TIME, COUPLED WITH EXTREME INSIGHT INTO THE HUMAN PSYCHE, WILL ENABLE ONE TO UNDERSTAND THE ARTIST'S INTENT IN THE CREATION OF SUCH A WORK." SO STATED EARL R. STONEBRIDGE RECENTLY AT A VIEWING OF ONLINE IMAGES NEAR THE LAGUNA BEACH AREA. THOSE PRESENT NODDED IN AGREEMENT WHILE ANOTHER ROUND OF BEVERAGES WERE SERVED.
