Awesome use of a lensbaby.

The past is getting murkier, and the future's just a shape of things to come.
Only in "the NOW" there is clarity.

Your photoghraphic eye is so sensitive, savvy, probing without being intrusive. You discover, frame, and capture the essential humanity of your subjects with such grace. Also, from picture to picture there is a wonderful surprise in technique; you permit sharp focus to follow gauzy regard, and so forth. Fine, fine work.

Wow, I love your comment. In fact, you have made my day. I'd say that you have seen 'me'... because it is exactly as I am in real life, as a person.

I'm really happy for you becouse of the DD!!


A lot has changed when I was away.

And the photo really deserves to be a daily deviation.

Thank you.. How was Paris? Did you have a great trip? Do you have photos?

Cygnusfolw In reply to myrnajacobs [2005-08-26 17:03:33 +0000 UTC]

Actually.... I did not go to Paris.

I was 200 km away from Paris. But didn't go there. I'm sure I'll get a chance to do that in the future, anyways.
I was in Taize and the environment of the village.

That would be enough for me. I want so badly to go back to France... anyplace in France!

Is Estonia a great place to visit?

Cygnusfolw In reply to myrnajacobs [2005-08-26 18:06:23 +0000 UTC]

Yes, Estonia IS a great place to visit!
We've got really wonderful nature.
If you don't believe me, wait 'till I'll start making pictures of Estonia's nature again. You'll see.

Okay, I love this photo so much and it bothers me that it is a daily deviation because usually people try to analyze Daily Devs until they don't mean crap anymore. This is what I got out of the photo...

It reminds me of the fact that everything you do changes the whole universe...for example: If I changed what I had for lunch and decided to have something new and I happened to be allergic to the new food, whatever it was...and died, then everybody's life would be changed. It's an amazing concept.

I love how the back of him is blurred. It resembles movement lines somewhat but it's amazing how he looks so still. It's a wonderful photo indeed. There are so many thoughts in his head and it looks like he's resenting NOT doing something which makes sense because it corresponds with your description, this is a wonderful deviation, keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment! You are awesome! I am not one to do much analyzing of my work... but, having been in college, I can do it if needed. LOL Mostly, it's just a good image and I knew it when I did it. I really appreciate comments like yours... they are special and making being on dA such a pleasure!

I'm glad I got the DD because I meet people like you...

No problem, sorry if I over-analyed your piece. I hate analyzing art but your piece really spoke to me and I thought I should tell you what it reminded me of. It's a truly wonderful piece and I'm glad that you enjoyed my comment.

I loved your comment... y ou didn't overanalyze... you just gave me what it made you think of and that is what I think we all want as artist... at least we should!

, I do enjoy hearing other's interpretations because it's always interesting as to how the human mind works so similarly but everything is always contrasting...it's such an amazing concept.

You never know why or how something gets chosen for a DD. I've had friends with DDs and it's not always their best work but it's all good anyway. One really cool thing is you meet so many new deviants and see galleries you might never have found otherwise. I love that!
