Day 31


What an experience this has been! Thank all of you who commented and those who looked. The Golden Mean is everywhere if you take the time to see. That is one of the reasons for this shot. If we all use our eye to really "see"there are amazing things out there. Many people look and don't see. We as photographers we have the gift of putting that exclamation point on to the mundane everyday things that people look at day in and day out but don't necessarily take the time to "see". You all open my eyes up every day and I thank all of you for that. Just like they say,"A picture IS worth a thousand words".

  2. This is a great picture to finish with - it really stands out. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time to comment on my photos. I truely appreciate every comment you have made - thank you. As I looked back over your gallery to see if I could find a favourite picture I find myself rather taken with day 12 - the flamingo. The colours contrast well together and the composition sits just perfectly. Very many congratulations on a job well done.

  3. This is a great shot! Lovely simple lines and shapes and fantastic lighting. Like one of those new modern half-face portraits. But with chairware. Awesome stuff!

    And congrats for finishing all 31 days. You did a great job and took some fantastic pictures! You should be proud!

    And thanks for all your comments on my pages. Much appreciated.

  4. First, thanks for opening my eyes to the GM, it is everywhere and I do see it so much now it's astounding!
    I like this one, it's a clean, clear image of the GM and a fitting end to your interesting theme.
    Congrats on finishing the month, super top shots!

  5. I had never heard of the golden mean before we started this challenge. Thanks for bringing us a lovely example every day. Day 26 is my favorite

  6. What a lovely graphic shot! The lighting really brings out the metal lines and curves. Congrats on finishing the challenge, and with such a challenging theme! I'm really impressed.

  7. Sorry to bug you this way, but as I got excommunicated at Worth1000 because of raising "bad questions" (I have yet to understand what that could be and asked the board to tell me, but haven't gotten any response yet) I want to thank you for the nice shoot in January. Wish I could have played in that HxH tournament, but if the admins decide my questions are too harsh and dangerous for the moral and integrity of the Worth community, it shall not happen.

    Enjoy your time at w1k and be careful what you ask and where…
