ok....

[CamDiver]

Yup, things move quickly around here. If no one posts until the 76th visitor then general census for me is that it is not to the taste of the crowd, not that I shoot anything to please anyone else other than me. Nice to get feedback but if not, no big one.

Cheers,
Mark.

It could just be that it was viewed by a lot of unregistered trolls. I don't like not getting feedback, either - just give it some more time next time around.

[clickcanon40]

ya, and sometimes even registered users will view it, maybe see it as great but not be able to think of a comment. I have been guilty of that I must admit.

We have the same problem in our italian forum, wich has many users less than this.
Many people look at images, but they can't find words to comment.
It is the same the whole world over !

(wow, very difficoult to find translation of Sayings!:lol::lol: )

So far I can see a Cat, an Afghan Hound, A Bird and two Whales.......and I swear it isn't 'whacky backy', I am a non-smoker so used joss sticks.

Cheers,

If I could post larger sizes you would be able to see all the intricate elements, maybe poster size. Love playing with these concepts.

Cheers,

I like the first one of the two just above ^ Great colors and different coloring than I have seen in most smoke photography around here. Great work on them all!

[CamDiver]

Thanks,
I appreciate the comments. I basically use gradient fills selecting the Multiply blend option and then scroll through the custom color charts in Photoshop until I find one I like.

Thanks again.
Mark.

[andrew748]

the 2 new ones are great, but i really want to see your avatar in a respectable size :D

[CamDiver]

andrew748, the avatar image belongs to a friend with whom I share my website. I will have to ask his permission before I post a larger version.

Cheers,
Mark.

Have patience. There are always far more views than comments here (and any forum). There's no point in removing shots because you don't get comments within a few hours.

Yeah. AND, I have noticed that the best comment days (where more POTNers are on) are Monday through Thursday and hardly ever on Fri and Sat nights- unless you want alcohol- induced comments;) I like the woman in your first one.

[CamDiver]

Thanks for all the positive comments. Yep, I guess I have learned to wait longer for constructive comments.

Cheers,
Mark.
