You sure it isn't "A bank next to a segull on a lamp"? ;) LOL Just for fun...you should post titles and pics that don't match ;) Keep em all guessin :D

I like the diamond effect in the glass windows :)

[PetKal]

Thanx Guitartists......I might just fololow your idea next.......love the sound of that "kawchinga, chinga, chinga.." :D ....as the mind's wheels spin.....well, it's all in good jest. Obviously, some of us take our photography less seriously than the others.;)

[CARSJ]

You have to hand it to "Petkal" he is the life and party of this Forum :))

[Nidz]

Maybe I should invest in a wacky avatar :)
I dunno about that pic mate. I guess the building is ok but the bird you can hardly make out.

[Gary Fairhead]

I don't know! It looks to me like you photoshoped that seagull into the shot.;)

[PetKal]

Thanx Carsj.
Nidz, mate, isn't she a ripper ? Granted, the gull needs some focus badly.
I find your AVATAR quite pretty in a manly sort of a way...I would not change it if I were you.;) .

[tumb]

I'm not sure about this one, although it's interesting in a way. Please try again.

[PetKal]

Thanx Gary, thanx Tumb from an OK location....for your comments.

Alas, I can not try again......it is hard to recreate that flash of genius with prior intent.....those things come to me once in a blue moon.


Gary, you got it in reverse...the seagull is my regular kind of shooting (OoF, tilted, etc.)....then I just photoshopped that sharp building picture I lifted off the Royal Bank's web site into the final image.

Keep it up ... you're giving we non-pro's (I think there are now 5 of us here) some hope that we can learn and develop.

Well I have to admit that you do keep me guessing Pektal. Most of the time when I look at one of your shots my first thought is "why" and then I look at it for awhile trying to figure it out but I never do. Oh well, I guess I am just not a genuis.:D

[skade]

Love it! :p

Char, you flatter me.:D Normally I do not intend any hidden meaning in my humble photos. I am rather incapable of "deep thought" photography. This is just simple a image that caught my "cartoonist's" eye.

[PetKal]

Sandi, I love you too.:cool:

[tumb]

I don't know, it's starting to grow on me. Oh and I love Sandi too, I think it's the accent :)

[skade]

Lol Everyone loves me! :p

[PetKal]

Tumb from an OK location loves you perhaps for your accent.
I love you for your mind....and the refined taste in photography.

So Sandy, now you can make up your mind whom youd like better.:D

[skade]

I have an accent?? ;)

Awe u win Petkal.. so nice to have someone who loves me for my blonde mind. :p

[PetKal]

Yipeee....thanx Sandi.....also, your taste in men is ostensibly impeccable :D :D

[BlueTit]

I love the title, never guessed it would be true to the picture :-)

Cool shot, it kept me looking, I thought I was supposed to be seeing the gull in focus reflected in the building or something or something ...

[PetKal]

Thanx BlueTit. You are right, we often tend to think that there is more to it than it meets the eye. Therefore, we seek and probe. The apparent simplicity of the obvious sometimes can have pleasing/amusing effects on viewers.;)
