Awesome shot man. I'm easily impressed, but this easily impresses me a lot.

235? Sweet Christ, how many insanely prolific people are you watching?

Only 255 messages as of now, so thats about 20 a day? And I dunno, about 50 ish?

That's not too bad for 50 people, but still! But then you have impeccable taste, so I'm sure you're watching them for a reason.

Being that I'm watching you, I must have taste, eh? A couple are fairly prolific too. *lastscionz is some sort of half-man, half-mechanical drawing machine. And that damn ~ThePortraitClub insists on making every entry a deviation instead of sticking them all in one journal like *ThePencilClub .

That's true, I've always seen you as the last bastion of good taste.
With all the deviations you have in your inbox, I'm surprised you have time for anything else!

Is there any other kind Thanks man.

madmanu In reply to Yoggington [2006-08-29 20:59:46 +0000 UTC]

Wouldn't a silouette be just the outer lines of a subject that define it's shape against the background (and not depending on where the light is positioned)?
English is not my mother tongue so I might be completely mistaken...

No, I guess you're right. Wikipedia defines as 'a view of an object or scene consisting of the outline and a featureless interior' This [link] would be a silhouette, and its not light dependant. Hell its not even a photo!

This image is absolutely WONDERFUL. I love the simplicity, and the elegance. There is some very nice detail, and some contrast that really gives the image focus and depth. You did an excellent job with clarity, and focus as well. I like the way its cropped lengthwise, great eye for that!! Keep up the good work. Definatley +fav!

Thanks, I don't think I could have put it better myself. You have to look carefully to notice her shouting with delight, or the little touches of colour still showing despite the shadow.

Mucha Gracias for the

I've done that wasn't very good at it though. The stones are too far apart
I'm fond of rockclimbing though. On natural rock.

Stones too far apart? Bows bigger than you? You're not the tallest cake in the cookie shop, are you shortbread?
