God has given you a wonderful gift. Never compare your work with the work of other photographers. Each has his/her gift. Your gift ‘speaks’ and the beholder is compelled to respond in their heart in their own way.
Thank you for that really lovely and encouraging comment, Kate. I take, sometimes alter, and finally post images that appeal to myself. I cannot do otherwise and if they are pleasing to the viewer then I am more than delighted with that.
Beautiful still life.
Thank you very much indeed!
Absolutely stunning. ! Whether it s your own photo or someone else’s you have the ability to show it off to its full potential This one is beautiful. Thankyou for sharing.
Thank you, Rita. That’s a wonderful comment. Photographs posted on my blog are always ones I have taken myself. Still life images are a real challenge as I am not a naturally creative or artistic person but learning is all part of the fun. My recycle bin is jam packed with deletions. LOL! So pleased you like my work.
Such a lovely still life, Anne. I love your work. And I love this theme. Just beautiful.
Thank you so much, Corinne! I really appreciate you lovely comments and I’m very pleased you like wht I do. Have a blessed day!
