Description
Fountain in downtown San Antonio, TexasFor all you "i only upload untouched photos" -- you will now proceed to hate me.
Lots of dodging and burning. Twas fun tho. Im starting to get a hang of that "woowoowouwouwwwooooooo" feeling of photos.
Woowouuowouw indeed.

This is an incredible shot and it's cool that you 'admitted' what you did. I have no problem with people doing photomanipulation - to me it's another art form. I just hate it when someone claims an image hasn't been touched when it's quite obvious that it has. I remember 'burning' and 'dodging' the old-fashioned way (in the darkroom) years ago and it was fun - heehee. Anyway, you 'confessed' to doing some stuff 
Also, in just a quick perusal of some of your work and your descriptions - god, you make me laugh!

BEST COMMENT EVER
Thanks for a truely "advanced" critique. Way better than "neato"
And yeah - its pretty obvious i edited the f*** out of this but might as well lay it out there
I'm glad you enjoyed my descriptions. I always try and put a lot of thought into them - or at least a little bit of humor. Every single thing you put out there adds to your persona as well as your artwork. Being personable and interesting goes a long way! Of course itd be nice if I actually had some neato artwork to post here...
Anyways - thanks for the awesome comment. My most favoritest new friend yay.

So you know....
comments like that come off extremely pretentious...especially when youre younger, less experienced, and have less views than the person youre commenting on.
Not a great way to build a fanbase.

i should have worded that differently...i was talking about me needing practice... the second part was praise for your good work... sorry it was kinda unclear...

I like it because it looks like a stair case. A flooded stair case as a fountain is appealing, vague, like a moody ghost.
The title is really great.

crouching stairs of undiminueshed fluidity of shape. counting the fall of scareless drops into the hands of pure unseen.

Really? Lots of dodging and burning? I really should learn to do that. I've burned a couple things (mostly just to blot out or darken unsightly backgrounds in portrait shots), but never figured out when to or how to properly dodge. Anyway, your photo turned out quite well when it's all said and done. Nice composition and tones.

Good choice in colour tone & very well contrasted. I love moving water so that gives you bonus points.

Beautiful! I can see why this got so much attention. I can see this hanging in a doctors office. Because doctors make good money and can afford to buy high quality artwork.
