My first (rather poor) attempt at a photo/painting.I'm trying to get images where you question if it's a photo or a painting..or is it BOTH,but it's not an easy techninque to master I've found.I originally made this much more 'painterly' but I hadn't quite got the technique right,and the face lost too much detail for me.Still,its a nice picture,and is a reminder.

fast ein traum

So gehen die Geschmäcker auseinander, was für donMaik fast ein Traum ist,

gefällt mir absolut nicht.

Abgesehen davon, dass mir alles so verschwommen/verwaschen rüberkommt,

mag ich diesen breiten schwarzen Rahmen absolut nicht.

Diese Darstellung hat der arme Hund, der im übrigen ein Schöner ist, nicht

verdient.

Elihilde,I have had to use a translator to translate your comments,but I gather you do not like the picture.Fair enough,but do you have to be quite so rude? Photography isn't about pleasing other people.It's about pleasing YOURSELF.I've met many people like you through the years.Hypercritical of everything.Your own photography is very good,but even if it was very bad,i wouldn't write a comment with such acidity.I would respect that YOU thought it was a good photo,and leave it at that.If you read my comment about the picture,you would have seen for yourself that I'm not happy with it.It was more of a test than anything else.So in future,engage your brain before you put your mouth in gear.

schade für arme Hund. Wenn ist so dicke schwarze Rahme, dann ist bestimmt der

Hund tot.

Die Bearbeitung ist Geschmacksach, aber ist vielleicht besser zu machen eine

Hochformat. Oben muss mehr Platz haben der Kopf. Der Hund hat so eine schöne

Gesicht, das darf doch auch scharf zu sehen sein.

Ist so traurig, so düster.....

macht mich auch traurig
