I'm still pretty new to photography, and as you can certainly tell, I haven't quite figured out yet either what I want to do or how to do it. Up until my photo "Poplars" I used a hand-me-down point and shoot camera. I now have a Canon XSi that I'm still learning to use and I'm having lots of fun with it. I'd love to have criticism, suggestions, and advice.
I love Flickr and I love my friends here, but I simply can't keep up with everything. I feel it's really not fair to have so many wonderful contacts keep up with all my uploads, while I just don't have the time to reciprocate. So... I've decided to block comments on my pictures. I want you to feel free to view and enjoy (or not) without any obligations at all. This will give me the time to keep up with my special friends a little better via FlickrMail, and the freedom to visit your photostreams whenever I can.
I'd like your experience here to be something like visiting a gallery, where you can look as long or as little as you like, and think or feel whatever you want, without the need to verbalize it. If you really want to say something about a picture, good or bad, please send me Flickr mail. I'll love to hear from you!
I'd like to give a very special thanks to ~Rob~, whom I admire tremendously, for writing a testimonial for me. I can't say enough about his generousity and kindness!
Además quiero darle a sinparpado mil gracias del fondo de mi corazón por su testimonial. Fue su amistad constante que me alentaba a seguir sacando fotos al principio. Sin su apoyo, seguramente estaría pasando mi tiempo mirando telenovelas o aprendiendo esperanto en vez de estar sacando fotos.
I'd also like to thank RoloDelCampo for his testimonial--I'm sure he gives me far more credit than I deserve, but in case you're wondering--I have no artistic "secrets," so if you want to know how I did something, just ask and I'll try to reconstruct. :-)
Many thanks also to MrOmega for his very kind testimonial. I'm so grateful for your kindness! And another big thank-you to Louthor who also gives me more credit than I deserve! I also want to thank my very dear friends, anyes☆ and Brian D. Tucker for writing such nice things about me!

My inspiration.
May I say that the most beautiful landscapes and sceneries are to be found here. They are coming right out of a dream and yet look so real that I can't help but wonder if they are other-worldly. And behind the lens is an amazing person, I have no doubt.
An artist of unsurpassed stature, a human being with a heart that touches (embraces) everyone she interacts with... That is my friend 'ifdefelsif.' I am enormously grateful to be part of her circle of contacts. Just looking at her peerless, magical images is an inspiration and education. Every post is a visual treat, I… Read more

Read lessI have to make a public confession ifdefelseif is one of the most unselfish and kindest person. She has help me to be better at photography and learn more about my own direction in art. Thank you for just being you. Durbin (Louthor)
En mi opinión, un artista debe saber crear. Las fotos de ifdefelseif son más que fotos: son mundos, son sueños, creados con sensibilidad y grandes dosis de buen gusto.

En mi opinión, un artista debe saber crear. Las fotos de ifdefelseif son más que fotos: son mundos, son sueños, creados con sensibilidad y grandes dosis de buen gusto. No creo que su trabajo sea nada común, quiero decir, lo considero un refugio al que acudir de vez en cuando para descubrir otras realidades o disfrutar con las que ya conozco. En flickr se pueden ver muchas fotos, pero pocas tan interesantes como las suyas. Un auténtico oasis de ensueño. In my opinion an artist must know how to create. Ifdefelseif's pictures are more than simple photographies: they are worlds, dreams, created with sensibility and a great amount of good taste. I don't think her work is common, I mean, I consider it a refuge to go from time to time to discover other realities or to enjoy with the realities I already know. On Flickr there can be seen many pictures, but only a few are so interesting as Ifdefelseif's are. An authentic haven of dreams.
Read lessYour work is great! Thank you for trying to teach me something...I'm sure I wont be able to try hahaha. But you sure are good at it! keep it up. It's good to have you on my list of contacts! Peace! Rolo
ifdefelseif...aun recuerdo sus primeras imagenes, siempre pensé que tenia una gran sensibilidad a la hora de fotografiar. Esta dotada de un ojo tan delicado que hace de sus fotografías un verdadero sueño...una poesía visual. Es un placer para mi presenciar la evolución de tu trabajo. sigue adelante !!!!
