I really enjoyed viewing your images, particularly "Missy" and the flowers; the others are equally good, by the way. You have very good control over your camera, you know what you want to capture (and you evidently succeed), and I love the details you captured. Hug Missy for me? I love cats and you did an extraordinarily good job in capturing Missy in ways that appeal to everyone. Good work. Good show! And, thanks for sharing these wonderful images with us!

Great portfolio - I especially like the first series ("single photos") - perfectly composed, great lights, interesting subjects.
Stef Karpa , February 23, 2004; 06:41 A.M.
I've got to agree with everyone else here. Superb work and superb photoshopping! Its really nice to see subtle photoshop work that really adds to the images without overpowering them. Bravo!

Hello, Bente -
thought I would return the visit, since you left such a nice comment on Balloon Girl! Your use of light is fantastic! A very beautiful portfolio, indeed. Nice job especially on Missy the Cat (who looks to be a Russian Blue or a Chartreux?)- detail, DOF and darkness all combine to bring out her silvery sheen!

Bente,
Thank you for leaving a note on my pages.
I think it is fantastic that you include a couple pictures of geraniums in your portfolio. It seems that geraniums are so often bypassed, and they are such beautiful flowers. I really like your still life work.
Thanks again,
