Description Reflections re-visited. We visited the same spot that we had 8years before and tried to capture the same reflective image. They are very different but it was a fun challenge.



Fairmont Springs, Canada

I always like reflection of a calm body of water. This is no exception. Doesn't this make the trip worth while?

Yes, that and the looks on my children's faces when they saw falling snow and mountains that traveled as far as the eyes can see... Eagles Soaring, Ram, Moose, Rivers, Glaciers.. dang.. so much better than the wars and the bombs. killings and school shootings...Gratitude and love for life teaches them to give and.. THAT is what makes the whole trip worthwhile. I have taken this trips times before.. but only once so far with the children...some who spent their lil lives in closets until we met... DUDE that makes it worthwhile.

Soapbox?? No idea bud LOL kinda random lol

I know exactly what you mean. Changing the lives of those under your care and giving them opportunities they would otherwise never had and making them feel loved.

After knowing you for so long on da, I still find your quality - able to speak from your heart so easily is quite amazing, no, VERY amazing. Very good quality ma'am. I must say, I am very glad to meet a person like you.

I like how the lines of color and texture go from one side of the picture to the other and back. I also like how the over all picture has a great scene of direction from one side to the other making my eyes glide smoothly across the picture. And is nicely balanced both horizontally and vertically.

Honestly, that is a great question. I do not think so. I have one that I changed tones etc on my web site, trying to get the feel of the original taken many years ago (not achieving it either, perhaps because the water was icy.)

I am very glad you like it.

Sometimes is better to leave photos untouched
I checked your web site, you have some really good photos over there

Thank you ...and thank you for checking it out. I have been so wrapped up here on dA that I seriously need to update my site.

Thank you very much. I have the original shot in my Photography Library @ [link] under Waterscapes I believe. They are so different..8 years apart..what a gift it was.

solarisdezine [2007-05-02 07:24:47 +0000 UTC]

sweet, still the watermark is quite distracting, can you not make your own (more subtle) watermark ?

shell4art In reply to solarisdezine [2007-05-02 10:11:35 +0000 UTC]

Yes That is the idea, but wanted something up in the mean time. Don't you think it's necessary? or no?

solarisdezine In reply to shell4art [2007-05-03 16:24:19 +0000 UTC]

Look at my gallery, I have different kinds, not sure yet which I prefer though.
It's a tough question to answer and depends if you want to earn a living with photography and if your work is very personal and your subjects private/sensitive I would 4 sure watermark...

Thank you very much. This was taken in Fairmont Springs Canada (Near Banff.) We had visited 8yrs earlier and took this shot (it looks much different and you can see it on my site [link] )

Thanks again for looking and commenting!
