A Thank You and A Holiday Feature

Sun Dec 20, 2009, 6:50 AM
First of all I would like to thank :iconkask: for the subscription gift she surprised me with this year. Thanks to DA also for this wonderful opportunity to share.

Some of her work that I enjoy:



I also want to wish all my friends around the world a Merry Christmas, a special holiday you celebrate or just a wonderful season to appreciate all those you love and all the things in life that are important to you. Since Christmas trees have always been a very important part of my holiday and in general, I love trees, I thought I would recognize their beauty for my holiday feature. This also gives me a chance to showcase some of my friends' work. I hope you enjoy my selections.

Interaction With Nature Feature

Sat Oct 10, 2009, 4:08 PM
We, as humans, have used our world to meet our needs and often have done so and still maintained the beauty of the environment. I have always loved bridges and marveled at the construction but there are also buildings that seem to be placed in such a way that they add rather than subtract. Folks here at DA have done a great job of capturing this positive interaction between us and nature. I thought it would make a good feature.

Hope you enjoy the photos and artwork. Please take a few moments to visit some galleries.

Bridges







Other Structures

Not A DD but I Am Very Honored

Wed Sep 16, 2009, 11:41 AM
Not all of us will get a DD and not all of us will have 50,000+ page views on DA. But one of the things that brings me joy here are the expected kindnesses that occur on a daily basis. Today someone who is new to DA :iconpurrrplcat:, decided to do her first feature and chose me and my work. It really touched me more than I expected. Being new to DA, Crystal only has a handful of watchers. Perhaps you will just take a moment, stop by her homepage and welcome her to DA. [link]

Thought it was time for a new feature. I really wish I could do these more often but it seems hard to find the time to work on them and get them right. Wish there was a "Save For Later" option so I wouldn't need a chunk of time together. Enjoy!

:iconglunia: is from Poland and joined DA two months ago. I hope you will visit her gallery and show her some support.



:icondreami: has been around DA for quite a while but I just discovered her wonderful work.



:iconje-nice: is from Malta and has a gallary that is very inviting.

A couple of friends and favs

Wed Jul 8, 2009, 1:36 PM
I haven't updated nearly as much as I would like and I love doing features so it is time I get busy and get it done. I have returned from vacation and just started going through my photos but life is getting back to normal which means perhaps I will have a spare minute or two. :)

Now for my features.

:iconjmorante77: is not new to DA but is new on my friends' list. I enjoy his sense of composition. Here are examples but hopefully you will visit his gallery to see more.



:iconsleepswithasmile: is a friend I have had followed for a while. She is always looking to improve and try things outside of her comfort area which I admire.



Some of my "favorite" things. Many have very few :+fav:s. Hope you enjoy them and add some to your collection also.

Leaving Tomorrow and Infamous Simba Sue

Fri May 29, 2009, 8:57 AM
Just had to add this to my journal before I leave on vacation. :iconsimplyacat: had contacted me asking permission to use one of my photo of Simba Sue. Of course I love her work so I didn't hesitate to say yes. Here is the result. I just think she captured Simba Sue's expression so well. Thank you again Moran!



Tomorrow I will be leaving for Europe and a river cruise from Amsterdam to Basel, Switzerland. I am really looking forward to the trip but will not have internet access while I'm gone. DA has become a daily habit so I will miss all of you but hopefully I'll have some good photos to share when I return.

Before I leave, however, it is definately time to update my features. Here are a few I wish to share with you.

:iconmoffycoffe: is from Mexico and has just joined DA this week. There is not much in his gallery yet but I thought this was striking and definately worth studying.


:iconxpress2gaurav: is from India and joined DA 8 months ago and has a gallery that deserves more visits.



:icontuti-tut: is from Israel and joined DA two months ago. I like her creative spirit.
