Hello Kristine! Oh yes - same with me! But more often I think that my pictures are "hm, well ... yeah, oh well soso lala" and weeks later I might find them "well why not, this is pretty cool" ... but I guess we all have that, or maybe I am the only one :))) A friendly crowd here, so much going on, discussions, laughter, and we are right in the middle of it ... I do not find anything bad like you say but some might find it more exciting if you focus on one person and leave the rest not sharp but for me, I find it really special, makes me smile. Happy weekend ... Barbara.

Hallo Mesut! Der hat so ein richtig guter Schalk darauf, lacht auf den Stockzaehnen ... HERRLICH. Was er wohl gesehen oder gedacht hat? Ich finde es total nicht ueberbelichtet, mir gefaellt diese Art Licht, gibt ein artistische Note her, aber wie immer, der eine findet dies, der andere das. Schoenes Weekend und schoener Freitagabend, Barbara.

Hello Sultan! I always felt so happy when my grandpartens came to visit and somehow this reminds me of these wonderful days. Grandfathers or grandmothers have all the time in the world - or used to have all the time in the world (no they are busy too ...) - to listen, to explain, to tell stories ... wonderful moment, full of tenderness ... Take care ... Barbara.

Hello Miroslaw! A wonderful composition reminding me also of my own summers in Australia when I was in my early twenties. Daydreaming maybe :))) Your picture shows what I felt in these days, thinking that everything was possible, some was, other things not. Really really good ... Happy days ... Barbara.

Lieber Mesut! Ein unglaublich starkes Foto, sensibel umgesetzt. Was fuer ein armer Kerl. Wichtig immer wieder daran zu denken, wie gut es einem geht, wenn es einem gut geht, aber dass es auch jeden und jede betreffen kann, man muss nicht immer von Geburt an behindert sein, es ist jederzeit hier und jetzt moeglich. Danke fuers Darandenken ... beste Gruesse, Barbara.

Hello Way ... and WELCOME back!!! I am still working but I thought I browse around for a while to see how everybody is. I hope your trip was successful ... and not TOO cold ... LOL ... but maybe it was and this is why you chose Escalante land instead. Yes I know, sorting out pictures is a lot of work. These arches, always a treasure to see them. I like your foregound with the yellow bush, always nice to have something "alive" which is sometimes hard to find in this kind of environment. Clean work, well thought over, really good. Happy day for you, mine is ending soon ... Barbara.

Hello Isabela! She IS CUTE, her eyes are really something, exploring the world ... a little bit like TE, each day something new to see. 1000 pictures ... this is quite a number, more than four years ... time flies - and yes we are four years older :))) but so what, it shows what you have reached, amazing work, picture after picture. Fantastic. Take care + have a good night, Barbara.

Hallo Silvio! Ich bin am Verhungern ... das finde ich gar nicht NETT :))) Sieht lecker aus und die Stimmung, die das Bild hergibt, ist so richtig vorweihnachtig. Ich dachte Du bist in Luzern, nun Basel, oder einfach nur zum Spass? Huebsches Bild, die Marktstimmung kommt bestens rueber. Beste Gruesse, Barbara.

Hello Kristine! He is a nice fellow (or is it a she), maybe I should study things more carefully like he does, wonder what he finds on this piece of leave. Great little field study of yours ... and nice to see you back :)) It is a little empty on planet TE these days but I guess all are waiting for the new opportunity or maybe they are all tired, I am a little too. Oh anyway, have a great rest of the week in NY ... Barbara.

Hello Richard! This night shot is really special, it goes deep under your skin and you feel a little lost in the night but this is not negative but quite the opposite (if I am not outside ... LOL), it makes you shiver but not too much, in a good way. This is really good, it really is. Best regards, Barbara.
