Hi Brian,

Many thanks for the reply.
It’s nice to hear from you and I hope you and yours are keeping well.

When I read your nice comments and critique I realised how much I learned from such constructive
posts way back.

I wonder should I have had the end of the line above or below the horizon?

Yep the sky is a “little” bright on the right.

It’s only down the road so I can go back. :)

Cheers and thanks again.

John.

Hi Alan,

I really love this image and would be very happy if it were mine.
As has been said it’s different and has a magical look to it. Yet it dosen’t look at all unnatural to me.
The light on the trees is lovely.
It definitely holds the eye.

Very well done.

John.

Hi Ras,

I like the scene here.

The tree kinda disappears in the background.
Sometimes the right kind of low yellowish light shining on a tree can make it jump out from the background.
When I saw this I imagined what such light might have done to this image.

Nice.

John.

Hi Pat,

Nice images especially the first one. I like the colour. I think the it matches the era suggested by the clothes very well. That suggested crop might be worth a try.

I do think the second one has a couple too many people in it. I think the lady at the front really takes away from it. I agree that sometimes in situations like this you have to take what you can get but distractions in the frame are still distractions.

I’ve seen more from your shoot elsewhere. You should be pleased with your results. Must have been nice to be so close to the action.

Well done.

John.

Hi Dave,

As has already been said #1 is a really nice image.
The light on the rocks is very attractive.

2 & 3 are very nice too.
Are they processed differently or was the colour just different?

Nice work.

John.

Hi Aidan,

The image isn’t showing for some reason.

Hi Mark,

Golden light is a marvellous and elusive thing and you were blessed with it here.

Two lovely charming images.

Not that it makes any difference but forced to pick I prefer #2.
I like that I can see both eyes and the catchlights are nice.

Then again …….. :)

Cheers,
John.

Hi Damien,

I have used an EPSON R240 A4 printer for many years now.
It uses 4 inks.
The printer itself was inexpensive. I can’t remember exactly but less than €100.
The ink, as seems to be the case with with most inkjet printers, is not cheap.
I have only used Epson ink and paper.

It prints really nice colour.
The B&W prints are not great. I tend to add a bit of tone and it seems to produce a better print.

I print from Photoshop Elements 8.

I have enjoyed being able to make prints and use it for most of our camera club competitions.

There are some brilliant printers available with multiple inks that are capable of printing
stunning colour and B&W photographs.

It is possible, without spending a large amount of money, to get an inexpensive A4 inkjet
printer that can produce excellent results.
It is also a good deal of fun printing your own stuff and seeing the results.

All the best,

John.

Hi Paul,

I like these a lot.
Very colourful.

Great timing for #2.

Yeah each one has something interesting going on.

Well done with them.

John.
