Congrats! That's wonderful. If you win Grand Prize, $50,000 is a lot of money. I hope you keep us posted of the results. I'll keep my fingers crossed. As I said, I think your three uploads tonight are very important works of art.

I agree, of course, we do all have our own taste in everything---clothes, furniture, etc. By the way, I love your taste after seeing the photo of your home. But, I would still love to have in my fav collection those three photos as they looked originally!!! I would not care and I wouldn't have written except that I think they're so special!

Thanks for taking the time to write back.

I like your work; it's just my opinion. I don't expect you to change one thing.

I'm older than you are; I was just pointing out that it's not only the younger generation who doesn't like/likes certain things.

(I don't like the mona lisa either)
I actually consider myself to be a sculptor, and don't like many paintings.

When I was a teenager, I was a semi-pro photographer; but I just lost interest in it. (self taught, film)

(Semi-pro = can pay for own equipment and toys)
(Pro = can make a living doing it)

.....i shoot anything...i goes for anything...i don't choose subject....i love every style....there's no rules in
my photography directions....

....& my main point up-load this shots is because of this words below that's
from my hearts,...not really about those noise effect or no noise is good photography..ha...ha..

Here's the words i wish to share through this lousy picture :

" Develop a broad compassion that reaches beyond your surroundings and extends to unknown places...
You'll find that many are not as lucky as you outside there.
This is the time you learn ,.............OPEN YOUR MIND, OPEN YOUR LIFE. "
