I very much subscribe to:-

 

No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit.

Ansel Adams

 

" Cameras don't take pictures, photographers do.

Cameras are just another artist's tool ".

 

Also:

THERE IS SUCH A THING AS 'THE BEST PHOTOGRAPH' OR 'THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER'" Don't Buy into this silly stuff. In order to be a good artist, you have got to leave the competitive spirit behind. You have to believe in your own taste. You can't match it to someone else's ideas. All that you've got as an artist is your own sense of what looks good. If you lose that taste, that edge of knowing what looks good, you become truly clueless. Don't try to copy others. You know what you like......SHOOT THAT! If you are pleased with the look of your photograph, you are developing taste and style. A taste and style of your own. Follow that innate sense of what looks good to you.

Bob Bauer - Rose & Flower Photography.

PLEASE NOTE - IF I COMMENT ON ONE OF YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS AND YOU MAKE ME A CONTACT I MAY NOT RECIPROCATE IF YOU DON'T RETURN A COMMENT ON ONE OF MINE AS I WISH TO RESTRICT MY CONTACT LIST SO THAT I CAN GIVE MY REGULAR CONTACTS' PHOTOGRAPHS A FAIR SHARE OF MY ATTENTION.

 

ON THE SAME BASIS IF I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM YOU FOR SOME MONTHS OR YOU APPEAR TO HAVE MOVED ON I MAY REMOVE YOUR NAME FROM MY CONTACT LIST.

 

People without photos and without a profile will be blocked if they fave my pictures.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Four requests:

1. Unless they are integral to identification or clarification, please do not add notes to my photos; instead, express your observation in a comment.

2. If you want to add a photo to a comment, please use the Thumbnail or Small size, nothing larger. I actually would prefer text only.

3. Please do not post moving (.gif) images in a comment.

4. If you blog a photo, please let me know in a comment that you are doing so.

Thank you.

I aim to repay a visit from you with an Invite with a visit by me to your Photostream with an Invite.

 

MULTIPLE INVITES FROM YOU CAN BE COUNTER PRODUCTIVE AS YOU WILL ONLY GET GENERALLY ONE, OR TWO, FROM ME ON EACH OF YOUR VISITS. SO PLEASE CHOOSE WHICH ARE THE MORE IMPORTANT TWO OR THREE INVITES AND PUT THOSE ONLY IN MY COMMENTS PLACE.

 

THOSE WHO PERSIST IN AWARDING MULTIPLE INVITES MAY FIND THEIR INVITES DELETED AND, OR THEMSELVES BLOCKED - CONSIDER YOURSELF, IF GUILTY, AS WARNED!

I am so blessed to know Ann and Tailer! Ann's photos are so well-captured...she takes me on trips to places I cannot go and helps me to savor the journey! Tailer, Ann's gorgeous kitty, is a joy to behold...I love to see her and admire her--the only problem is that Tailer is SO photogenic that I feel like I am always leaving the same comments on her shots--something like "Another gorgeous shot of her!" I am very pleased to call Ann and Tailer friends!

It's an honour to write a testemonial to Ann! I know her for not a long time here in Flickr, however her photos captured my attention and I started visiting her every day. Not always leaving comments, but surely appreciating every single photo! In the beginning she got a little confused how dealing with flickr and I gave her some hints, and she's doing it great by now! (You still need to learn how to put an icon though...) Her every day photos are always a good surprise and a pleasure to see. Many of them are from her trips, which are amazing! I feel like traveling with her to those beautiful places she's been to. Others are from her own country, UK. But she has so many special subjects to take photos of that we never know what to expect next!! But she has a special care to take each photo! Her beloved cat Tailer is something special! She is a real character, and I love to see her adventures, specially when she goes to the streets on a leash! On a leash, can you believe this?? And the way she writes the texts are really nice! It seems that the texts were written for those photos, or is it the way around? Either way, I really appreciate her work, and I'm sure that flickr people will also have a great time sharing some moments with her. All the best to you, Ann!! Your Brazilian friend, Marina
