Lizz,why not just accept the way other ppl like to take their photos.Its a great shot which should be getting praise, not a comment like yours just because its not done the way you like.
I just dont understand this inability by you and quite a few others to accept the way someone else likes to take their photos.

What brilliant photos Dragonfly!

No 2 is now the background on my PC and looks lovely.

MPH I am quite happy to accept editing and processing of photographs and have really liked some of the images posted,Rheghead's portrait of his daughter that looks like a medieval painting is beautiful as have been some of the fun ones that have been posted.
I may be of an older school that was brought up with the ethic that a photograph catches the reality of the moment and the an artist interprets.
To me a highly edited,long exposure,special lens or highly saturated photograph becomes an interpretation and there for a work of art which in no way detracts from the appeal but as you will well know there are those who like different artists,a Van Gogh is a masterpiece to one and a complete enigma to another who would prefer a Gainsborough portrait.
I am surely entitled to say as much as the next person when I dislike something that does not appeal to me or am I not?

You surely are entitled to your opinion but i dont think have ever commented on someones photo negatively based purely on the fact i dont like the style of it.
There are some photos posted here which are great photos but to my eyes look about as colourful as a 10 year old washed out teeshirt but i accept that others like what they like and do what they do and choose not to comment negatively just because they're not done in a style of my liking.
If the critisism is constructive or could be helpful to the original poster then it serves a purpose,telling someone that the water in their photo looks like noodles, just because you dont like it, is neither.

I love them all but No 2 is my fav.
They sure have the WOW factor.

**Kenn** · 23-Jan-10, 19:32

I did put a smiley by my original comment MPH and did not mean for it to be taken as a non constructive criticism for which I apologise if it has been misconstrewed.

**Boozeburglar** · 23-Jan-10, 20:57

All cracking shots, the first does it for me for the interest in the foreground.

**wicker05** · 23-Jan-10, 21:39
