btw chris.... i'd join uber but there's one problem. I'm in the UK and it won't let me sign up with a UK postal adress... it's only set up for you americans damn you lol

and on the fire photos. 1) fire can do wierd things like that and 2) r.shearer's only pissed cause someone other than her was managing to help raise money for the needy. can't really blaim her when it's all she's got to do in life, alongside be a pain in the ass about photography of which she hasn't got a clue, just like london... cmon! i mean half my friends could do better than that with a disposable camera or a camera phone! jeeze, and she makes money from that? .....why aint i rich yet? lol

thanks for mentioning - always nice to hear that people appreciate ones work. take care.

i don't even bother fiLtering via "PopuLarity", as 99% of it is fanart. it does my head in some days, this is one of those days. thanks for the rant, i totaLLy agree!

Jess

I would like to thank you for making my day. I was LMFAO. You rock!!!

Love the features.. I really like what you have found here. Some of the images at first glance are images which I would skip over without a second thought, but when I make myself go full-view it, all of the sudden I'm seeing something I didn't see in the thumbnail.

Oh, and by the way, today is 26 October, not 27. But if it was, I'd be pumped cause that's my birthday, haha.

the 27th Oct -- feature -- a most interesting choice -- because we tend to see this scene often -- but never in this perfect frame -- later days

wtf...how does someone like saturdayx get that many views and comments and favs

no offence...

but his work doesnt merit anything..and its not like hes on here even commenting and whoring him self out

this place ..i just dont understand at all



and fucking eh at the HDR digs
...more people need to read that ..so they stop with that ridiculous trend

me....im personally of thinking of taking my gallery and re editting it all and blowing all my images to hell with saturation and make my images look so unreal ....so i can be popular and get page views too ...

hahah ..ya ..umm fuck that noise

ill roll over and be a bitch to a dog..before that day ever comes

although it was damn funny when i had my ass up as my avatar ..the page views i got that month......omg.....more than i get in almost a year ......lol

how sad

but i must say ...it is gettin a bit ridiculous at what people think photography is on this site



i know..you dont care for all my styles of work itself ....or the fact i long converted souly to digital

but if i won that leica on uber..id have been a happy happy fish

but shit..i dont win fuck all ...never have..never will

no irish in me....
so fuck luck ..ill do it the hard way ....or rob a bank and get a leica

but as i was saying...i know my work isnt a 100% your style or anything..but atleast someone who knows what a camera can do ....can see in my exif data and such ..that i (with the exception of a very couple -mainly older works)
nail it the way i see it and want it to be seen...i dont need to blow out back grounds or anything like that ...
(my editting is pretty minimal and altruistic to what i saw and envisioned)

so KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK >>>>HELLO MC FLY ...
wake up people....and do that shit in camera
if you cant..keep doin it..learn the tool...not photoshop
so you can actually call your self a photographer ..of some sorts

hell ..i for one dont even crop my images.....

although cropping isnt looked upon badly ...pros alike have always done so ...

its just something i try to do .....
to make myself better ..shoot what ya see....and take the time to do so ...

cause other wise ...im sure i could find alot of shit in my outtakes..crop them to hell ..and edit them even more so ..and go ..ohh look at me..
look at how good i am ...at editting ..i mean photography ....give me a DD

im GREAT

LOL

ah well .an endless rant...and one im not sure why im doin..but your journals always stir up a feeling in me...and im happy for that

you say it how it is..and thats a quality i always admire in a person....and i sure in the hell know you dont do so just behind the monitor like lots of pip squeaks out there that hide behind an ISP ...

cause man..i recall many of conversations and shit from the summit...that just had me howling

so ya.. dont ever stop man ...
gives me a smile to read

but ill stop ranting before i get into the medium format cropping shit i see people do with 35mm cameras...
wth ....
i dont get that at all ....
get a medium format camera..if ya want to do that ...

no offence Bernie

________

but anywayz ...
ya - havent been around in ages.....

but i still read your shit...just not to active on here anymore

but i am sorry to hear about your demotion....(although i understand)
im just glad your carrying on the dd's ..cause they are usually always the best *even if you never did read my suggestion i sent to ya ...ya punk)

although i did like when garrit was a GALLERY "EDITOR"
he had some nice selections as well

Personally to me ..i think people that pick dd's ..should have qualities to do so ....meaning they know how to shoot or draw or whatever it is they are selecting
so they not only know the technical aspects and can understand what they are viewing in an image..but can take that and relate it to the feeling and expression the artist is tryin to convey as well ...

seems people just throw up shit..and write nicely about it...but really ...have no clue what they are doing ...

no offence to the GD's ..i know your volunteers.....and thats commended...but ....art is art

try selecting some ....or going to some art galleries to see what real art is...

oops..back to ranting ....
and one thats been done many of times before too (just not by me)

.......im the silent stalker on here
cause well..its the fricken internet...

most of it is all retarded in the first place

but anywayz

....how the hell are ya bro ?!?!?!
........been a fuck of a long time..and i know ..DA isnt the place to really ask that....

but im asking anywayz


and damn man ---> hope those crazy fires are leaving your loved ones, and that lovely new home of yours safe and sound...


some crazy shit goin on out there
but sorry ..id be alright if vegas burned down ...even though i know you love it ....
that place is just a messed up cess pool

as for me ...things in Canada..are full of colour....and slowly getting cold.

snowboard season is soon though..so theres always a bonus .....not to mention nice nights of cuddling in front of the fireplace

--> after we barricade the doors from polar bears, of course
but ya ....things are goin well for me and my lady friend ..and im glad to hear the same goes for you and your little ones

shit....i could write more and more and more ..and prolly do some more rantings about this or that too

but you do them better ....and i always enjoy the laughs you provide...even if you link to gay sex shit

that had me laughin

but anywayz

ill just leave ya with ya a long ass message as it is..and a greeting from your friendly neighbour in the north

Catch ya on the flipside
Cheers
