Thanks for the comment. I've gotten off to another slow start. I'm gonna try to do better this year. I was slacking big time last year! I think I have too many hobbies or something. ;)

Ahoy, Pete. Great pics of all the Tall Ships. By the looks of all your wide-spread photos, you musta worn out a ton of shoes. You've inspired me to get my stuff in an online gallery. I'll never catch up to your one million viewers. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing. I know it's a labor of love.
Cheers,

You've got my curiosity going full tilt...Why were Neptune and his turtle blindfolded for the sand sculpture festival? It made for great photos. All I can think of is that there was a ceremony after the sculptures were completed, for which Neptune was unblindfolded. Has me really intrigued!
Crystal McDonald 29-Jul-2006 03:02
Hey! thanks for leaving a comment!! :) its so good to hear from you. I have been kinda on pbase-break for awhile, still looking at everyone's photos, just not posting...i think i might start posting again! :) hope all is well with you!

The "Dragan" action doesn't really do any one thing... There are so many variables that you can adjust when running the action in Photoshop, you can end up with very different results. Most often it is used on portraits to create a very different, interesting look. I've only played around with it a little bit, so I can't really explain everything that it does, or is capable of doing.

Here is a link to a known pbase gallery, that contains many different images that were "draganized": http://www.pbase.com/photofixer/draganizer_action

You can download the action itself at:
http://www.atncentral.com/download.htm (scroll down the page)

And here is a discussion on the dpreview forum about it:

And last, but not least is the guy's website:

Thank you for your nice comment, and suggestion on my horizon line. To tell you the truth I was so bummed on my exposure that I didnt even notice the horizon! I am usually realy good at getting it perfectly horizontal.

Thanks for your nice comments.
Millennium Park is located: from north to south, Randolph Street to Monroe Street, from east to west, Columbus Drive to Michigan Ave. The biggest attraction in Millennium Park is the Cloud Gate Sculpture. It's absolutely beautiful: http://www.pbase.com/tianphoto/the_bean
The apark was build above the Randolph Train Station and Grant Park Garage. This park cost the city $500 million.
You will love the park when you see it by yourself. Tian

Love the passionflower picture... saw one like that recently at VBFS!

Hi, thanks for visiting my galleries, and your kind comments. And yes, I do believe I'm hooked already on the "PAD" thing. I used PScs "sparingly" on the first PAD image, just boosted the saturation a tad and cropped slightly.

Hi virginiacoastline, thanks for the visit to my galleries.
Re the picture you left a comment on, http://www.pbase.com/image/39896455. I fell off a ladder, or rather left dangling from a ladder, at work. The arm managed to get a decent bruise from hitting it. The bruise looked good so I posted it on PBase. I was suprised by the ammount of replies the pictures got, so realy I got the sympathy I was after, LOL.
I'm off for a browse through your pics now. Happy snapping. TREV.

Marijka 30-Jan-2005 02:39
Thank you for the visit --- i must say your comments are most interesting, well maybe what i mean is most intersting which photos you commented on... i do agree, the one photo does seem dark--it is not your monitor--- but sometimes it is difficult to get the right lighting--- as you may tell, i love to play in Photoshop--- i have yet to buy my perfect digital camera, after having invested so much in a normal SLR--- but, i try--- I do enjoy pbase--- and love to see what others have done--- and when it strikes me--- i am apt to leave a message... hope to stop by and see your work, again!!

Thank you for visiting and leaving the comments. I like your photos, they are always so "human". Metairie is a small town, I probably know your friend. I also have my ancestral home in Montz so I photo both places.

Wow, thank you for the very nice comment! I was having a bad day ( financing school brings head aches ) and your kind words really cheered me up. Its nice to see that someone enjoys my work, its sometimes hard explaining my bizarre work to my parrents ;0 I really like alot of your pictures especially "meet my sun" (gross but hilarious, reminds me of some of my friends here!), "beauty shop" (this one made me laugh out loud!), "mirror2 self portrait" (great use of lines color and texture!) and "january 15" (just plain cool!). I also like the funny narritives that you add to most of your photos. They really make the pictures come to life!

thanks,

Robert

Shelly 29-Apr-2004 01:30
I found your pics thru a comment you posted on one of my Birder friend's gallery. Saw you were from VA & had to check your pics out. You have the "eye" which I don't. I envy people like you. Beautiful & creative. I primarily take pics of birds, flowers, nature, etc. P.S. I live in Virginia Beach.
Tom Rotkiewicz 28-Apr-2004 02:53
Thanks for commenting about the kaleidoscope. It took about 10 hours to do it. You're making me feel a bit guilty about deleting it in a couple of days (I usually post temporary pics for some folks at a local camera store – saves me a lot of printing). – Tom
George Bard 18-Apr-2004 02:13

Aurora Vanderbosch 06-Apr-2004 21:07
:-) I loved your comment in my guestbook--you obviously share my sense of humor! :-) (And I must say--you have a knack for capturing intimate moments with unsuspecting groceries, ;-))

Seriously, though--I really enjoyed mousing through your galleries today... I love seeing the world through other people's eyes! One of my favorite things is going shooting with another photo buddy--and then comparing shots at the end of the day. It's like we went to totally different places--or, if we're shooting people--as I did on Sunday--it's truly amazing how differently we captured the same poses. Thanks for showing us the world through YOUR eyes! :-)

(And stay away from baby corn...if the mama's near, she might attack... ;-))

TJ O'Brien 28-Mar-2004 18:52
Thanks for all the moral support in my PoTD efforts. Steve is watching like a hawk. Still, notice he hasn't posted since 25 March. Just ordered some new Photoshop for work computer and until I get it sorted, I'm afraid I will vary between photographic constipation and diorreha. Desperate to get them ut on the day but can't and then whoosh - all there for the world to see on the weekend when I get to a PC with image editing and transfer capabilities. Should all be fixed by next week though. All the same, thanks for your paitence and still having the interest ot browse every couple of days.

Take care for now

You mentioned that you had a bookmark for the guy on miranda with the photo of the Liberty dollar. I tried to find his website and it is not listed in his profile there... Would you mind sending me a link? I have not seen much of his work, but the little I have seen makes me want to look at some more!

Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner, but I don't check my messages here very often. The answer to your question is, the best PSE lessons, are at www.eclecticacademy.com and the teacher is Sara. Just look thru the curriculum, and pick out her lessons, start with From The Ground Up.
If you want to e-mail me directly for detailed information and pictures, janec3@mac.com
This is the best way for me to learn, and now I feel as if I can do almost anything basic now. You will almost become addicted to PSE!
It is so much fun!
Your pictures are really nice,
Jane
Carolyn B. 25-Jan-2004 01:12
Just popping in to say, THANK YOU for such a wonderful comment to my "forties" self-portrait. You definitely made me smile and did make me think about loosening my grip on that doorway to this new decade! I, of course, have to add, that your galleries are an absolute joy to sift through.
David Hone 24-Jan-2004 22:35

Hello,

I loved your pics, very very nice composition. IMHO, you should switch over to a DSLR, not just because you will get better pics, the camera in the right hands (as yours) would make astounding photos. Thank you for your comments.
Gary Robertshaw 17-Jan-2004 03:56
Hi, you have some very nice galleries, and many of your shots show your ability to make an interesting photo by using the right composition and viewpoint. The bubble gum machines is one example, but there are many more throughout your galleries, and your 'favorites' gallery photos are all nicely done. We would welcome your participation in the Yahoo uzi group photo of the week and other galleries.
GUEST 12-Jan-2004 12:40
NICE STUFF. HOPE TO SEE MORE, ESPECIALLY THE MACROS. THANKS.
