Hi, Dreamingforever *waves*
I LUV the bubble picture a lot. The colors are beautiful! ^-^
Willow tree and russian dolls were prob my second favs. Other than those, the others were a tiny bit less lovible to me.

My, my! I love the first one so much. ^-^ It's so carefree and colorful and whimsical and childlike. I love random photography like that. It's just so fun and appealing to the eye. I wish it were a little bigger though. I like how the background is so blurred out of focus and the bubbles are the objects appearing sharper to the eye. Great shot here.

As for the second one, I'm trying so hard to remember what the name of those dolls are. It's on the tip of my tongue, too. But anyway, I think that the setup of the shot is nice, with each of the different sized dolls (I guess you would call them dolls, right?) scattered carelessly about each other. I think it would have been a little cooler looking if you had kept a few into focus while the others were a bit more blurred. It would have given it a sense of prospective and the layering would have been neat.

The palm trees are interesting. Is that snow? ... Like I said, interesting! Especially because palms tend to be in warmer areas. So it shows a sort of contradictory prospective here. The fourth picture is nice, too, but there doesn't seem to be much going on with the scene. But maybe that's the point of the shot right there. Who knows, only you. ^-^

Anyhoo, very neat photos you have here. I give it a thumbs up! Keep up the nice work.

Hello Charade and SmylinG,

Firstly, thank you greatly for the fantastic reviews that both of you wrote for me, they were encouraging and your advice was very valid and inspired me to take photos more regularly than I do currently. Photography has always been a passion of mine and the feedback was very inspiring and helped me spot flaws and find out what kind of photos cause a better reaction with everyone and it has also helped me explore photo editing sites and discover new settings on my camera. Once again thank you both

Now regarding your question SmylinG,
Is that snow?
Yes! In fact that is snow, it had begun to snow and I wandered outside and took a quick snap of the snow. Funnily enough it was a coincidence that the palm tree was in the background I hadn't actually anticipated that, the colors of the palm tree simply seemed to emphasize the beautiful snow that was falling, I'm glad you brought up that it was interesting to see people notice things in my photos that I hadn't even foreseen myself.

I am planning on posting more photos in the future so please keep your eyes peeled and if you can a review would be much appreciated! Oh and if you ever want a review post a comment on my wall or just PM me, I enjoy reviewing and I would only be returning the favor. Thanks!

From DreamingForever

Hey there,

Just thought I would have my little in put, and say that I really love the bubble picture :) It's creative and fun. The Russian doll one is a bit too fuzzy for my tastes but it's still neat. The palm tree looks really cool, and it's a nice contradiction; and on an off note it was certainly cold enough for the snow :) The willow tree is cool and I like how the people are slightly blurred. Just wondering where that picture was taken, because I think I know where it is :) Finally while the golf one is nice, I think that maybe next time a different angle would look slightly better :) but that's just me.

Overall good pictures, and I can't wait to see more

Hey Dreaming,

My favorite picture was the bubbles one.

As far as the Russian dolls go they all seemed out of focus. Which wasn't an artistic out of focus, just seemed like a mess up.

The last three photos have nothing special about them, seem like photos you just snapped. Sorry nothing artistic there eater, but nice pictures.

PM me or post on my wall if you have any questions!

The bubbles look so magical. Simple yet colourful beauty. And the russian dolls are simply a piece of art. The little strawberries look so cute and bright. Full of life. All the photos are full of life. I am absolutely awe-struck.
