Description D'Arcy creating a masterpiece heart on a sidewalk... Kind of like the way her necklace is hanging there saying "pow"...

You have such an incredible eye. I'm so glad that you've got a superpowered camera 9000 to back you up.

Thanks! The new camera is nice... Still finding my way around it though.

Although, and I need you to know that I'm a little jealous of what you do... You're creating something where nothing previously existed, I'm just capturing what's already there with an angle that I find interesting. I think I'm going to have to take a lead from you and start becoming more involved in what I shoot, by trying to create the image by interacting more or coming up with a concept in advance, rather than stumbling across something interesting and relying on a passive capture. Time to start planning something, thanks for the incentive and inspiration!

NO!! no no no, please don't compare the two. They're two very different art expressions, and two very different talents.

I appreciate the compliments, and I'm really very flattered that you take any inspiration from me, but I feel the same way about your pictures. I wish I could pick up my camera and tell the stories in a single click that you do.
And about pre-planning, I'd love to see what you can do, BUT the charm of your stuff is that it's real, it's quick, it's capturing real life and interesting life, in a moment in time. You have the eye, and the timing that others, including myself, don't have.

Expanding your art, that's great, but don't degrade what skills you already have.

OK, I understand... Probably one of those situations where you're never as happy with your own work as that of others whose work you respect. I really appreciate what you said. But still... Going to try a few new things in what will hopefully be the near future! Thanks again for the inspiriation!
