Some amazing work here Jamie. I like your street stuff the most, but above all admire the level of diversity; very enjoyable portfolio. Kindest regards.

I'm impressed, especially by 'Urban Reflection & Transparency', 'Partial Portraits', 'Cowles Mountains' and 'Marhaba Curry House'. Your photos are impressive and funny, please show us more soon !!!

You have some really good photos here Jamie, keep working on your style, it's what I find most interesting here.

You've got a great eye for the urban compositions Jamie. Very nice photos overall. Keep it up. Cheers, Bond.

you have a very strong sense of perspective,very unique....regards ,nayan.fido

Your eye is well and truely in. Good work over a diversity of subjects Cheers Ian

You have a good eye. I appreciate a photographer who can present a unique point of view. I very much enjoyed your portfolio.

heey you realy ike refections :D like mee :) nice galery :)

I really like the work that you have done with reflections and architecture. We are sort of from the same neck of the woods (my grandmother taught English at the old Tulsa Central High). I'm from NWArk.

Hi. Cheers for your comment and also the tip re. using polarizing filter to get that perfect reflection in the quadrilateral pic. As a new member of photo.net I have found that reviewing the excellent pictures here, critiquing, and being critiqued has been a good excersise in discovering more what styles I actually like, what works, what doesn't etc. Abstract, semi-abstract, reflections, inversions,& architectural abstracts all appeal to me - and you have great examples in your portfolio of each! So I will keep an interested eye out for your work! Oh and yes, stop being 'lazy' as you say - get the technical details in! ;) I, for one, appreciate them. Regards, Drew.

Jamie great portfolio, keep all the good stuff coming. Also thanks for all the tips and advice.

very good and intresting portfolio...want see more))

Hello friend

I would like to wish you and your family Happy Holidays and a Good New Year! And say thank you for your support with your ratings and comments on my work over the last year. We are hoping to post some good weather photos this year. We start shooting sky photos in April thanks again for supporting my work.

Best wishes Ken Fugate Stormphoto.net

G'day Jamie! So, glad I stopped by! Love your work. There's a real expressive and powerful feeling amongst your works that you can't help but be drawn back in for another look! Congrats mate! I'll be back for more inspiration!

Hey Jamie, you are shooting/posting like crazy, I think you must be the most active member I know on this site. Anyhow it's nice to see how all is developing, you are doing well. See you around

You have a very nice portfolio:-) Keep clicking.....

Very beautiful portofolio with a variety of excellent photos. You have an excellent sense for photography. Congrats !

... just happened to find this portfolio and see that you are a serious photographer with serious skills. Thanks for a couple of things ... first, posting great shots, particularly those of Manchester, which I find very strong. Second, for posting technical data on the photos. It is great to be able to see the choices you made to secure the images ("Arches" for example, and others). Thanks, and I'll be back.

Good portfolio Jamie. Really like that curry house. Bill

I enjoyed your scratched circle so that brought me to this page. Marvelous architectural photos. You play with perspective in a refreshing way and it pulls me in, makes me think I know you!

Hello Jamie! What a wonderfull portifolio. From now on it will be one of my references on how to make a good photo. Regards

Thanks of your comment on my picture,I'm honored of your evaluation. About lens distorsion, the 12-24 nikkor at 12 mm has a low distorsion, much less than the canon 12-22.The difference are that the nikkor it's a professional lens, developped for DX sensor,not a cunsumer lens like the 10-22 canon. In general nikkor wide lens are well corrected with central and medium spaces,only at edge are evident loss of quality,correcting by closing diafragm (11 or more). I' hope this comment can help your work Regards Alessandro

You have very nice work Jamie ,please dont be mad at My comment on your retro home shots.

Amazing portfolio! Congrats!

Very amazing and interesting portfolio, love your reflection photo (with lot of dimension). I prefer your aesthetic best rate and I accept that my picture is not very original but make with aesthetic as good i can. it's very difficult to do originality, there is the originality of the subject and the manner to treat it. Good shot

Salutations

Hello Friend!

Well here it is another year is passing away and we are coming into the holidays. I think time starts to go faster as we get older, it was just yesterday I wished my friends Happy Holidays and here it is again the end of a year. The holiday lights are starting to be put on some of the trees here in Dallas, we were out last night and some were lighting the trees. I wish for you all a holiday season with family and friends, after all is said and done all we have is each other.

I want all of you to know just what your comments and ratings on my work means to me, your words are my motivation, my drive to discover, to learn this art that we all love, thank you for taking time and thank you for caring about my works. At the same time thank you for letting us see your world, our lives are so much the same, we all care about our families and friends and we all share the same things, maybe someday our photos will help make for a lasting world peace. May you and your family be blessed this season.

Happy Holidays and Happy Shooting

Ken

Your work is inspiring as ever. The Wyoming pictures are so dreamy and your new People addition very soulful.

Great portfolio. You have a good eye!

Thank you for commenting my photograph. Excellent photographs of architecture, as far as i can say. Clean photos, i like those. Kind regards,

Ilja

I am glad I found your gallery. A superb work, talent and technique coming together. I sahll be back often. Congrats, greetings from Portugal

Inverted reflections are for me the most impressive one. You have captured really an interesting angles regarding the other architectural motives.

Thank you for commenting my Self portrait with my friend Nikon.

Your photos are of such a high quality that for most, I could tell they were great just by looking at the thumbnail size. Of course I did view larger.

Wonderful stuff.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers ~

Dia dhuit Jamie, It's a long way down....at times I didn't think I would make it but here I am (at the bottom of your comments list!) Thank you so much Jamie for commenting on some of my photos....it's very encouraging! You have a very eclectic and interesting collection of photos.You are obviously an accomplished and meticulous photographer and I could really learn so much from your meticulous approach...I'm the opposite to meticulous, a bit lazy to tell the truth so, I really am going to have to knuckle down to some serious stuff....I think I'll leave it until next week to start though!! One more thing...My seagull is better than your seagull (I think!). SLAN.....FRANK.

a long gallery...... i needed two days! well, after have seen this pics, i feel the willing of travelling. I think this means the pics are ok, this is photographie, at last, the capacity to move something inside. i am not able to use colours. is this that i loved to understand, colour. iso i appreciate you capacity in giving to the colours the same meaning of the bw. bw tells, colours describes. There is not yet an history of pics in colours that tell a story, so i'm glad to see that someone get this always sorry for my english......

Your work is fantastic.Thanks for rating on one of my photos.Regards

Hi Jamie, you also do greats and honnest photographs, Bravo. f.

I like the vision of your reflexions in the water. Thank you for noticing my work and for commenting my photographs "Zen" and "Self-portrait".

Kind regards!

Very nice portfolio Jamie I'm only starting in photography but really enjoying Thank You so much for rate on my capture:) I Like your photos so warm and nice hope some day will do as good as you :) Regards Bart

Hi Jamie and thanks for evaluating my "Chromatic Shadows".

Since I am new to photography I sometimes get stuck with ingriguing shots which I feel I could do something more with but am not quite sure what?

If it wouldn't be much trouble I would be very greatful if you could give me an idea what you would do to improve the shot.

By the way you have a marvelous portfolio with soooo many fabulous shots and I will definetely return over and over again for ideas and inspiration!

Best regards, Nick

Thanks again Jamie! Your tips are very helpful. The shot was taken with a macro ring which means not AF and Olympus has absolutely not manual focus help feature. Further this is a photo of a corner of my room wall (with a shade of my wifes vase) which is rough in the firs place. Ill try bluring it.

Thanks again!

You have a very nice portfolio Jamie.Like your reflections,but also the other work you display.I have to spend some time here to enjoy it all.Keep it up!

Best regards.

hi jamie , i look through ur portfolio , u have amazing photo which indicate the creative u r , hope to see a lots of ur incredible photo , thanks for sharing . regards , hala

Thanks for your rate. Your work is very good. I like it and the new prespectives. Keep shooting!

Dear Friend, i always follow your work, a great work, so i decided to ask you an opinion: you consider a shot as beautiful independently by photoshop?s operations? There is a limit to define a shot as a photograph? Many of us look for the best moment, the best light, the best composition to take a real photo; we are wasting our time? Please let me know. I have added an example of retouching operated by an expert, Pam.R, in a perfect Rarindra Prakarsa style. The magic light of Rarindra (Rarindra is only an example of photoshophotographers; one of many..)! Thank you!

Thanks for thinking of me in asking your question.

Photography, whether based on silver or silicon, is never pure. The creative decisions that one makes inevitably affect the finished artistic product to a similar degree to the subject itself.

So I am not at all against using Photoshop...

..but in this case, I would say that if you want a picture that looks like the "after" version, you should buy a cheap point-and-shoot digital camera. The image suffers from many of the characteristic, overheated faults of this kind of camera. Better digital cameras allow you to capture the whole colour range. A little judicious use of curves on the original version wouldn't hurt, though.

Thank you so much for your comments. You can find my opinions on my portfolio?s page. Best shots! Alberto

Jamie, you have one of the best eyes on Photo.net. What a truly impressive collection!

--Lannie

Your strong gallery makes your kind words so generous.

Thanx for looking at my photo...Your work is great!

WOW Jamie! Thank you a lot for commenting my photos!

I'm surprised pleasantly. I saw you like my quarry. It's special to me too. I can't find many quarries here where I live. I'm not so familiar about them, but I think I could find them more. I think I'll manage something.

Nice portfolio! I particularly like the reflections series. Regards, Keith.

Excellent portfolio, especially I loved the ones with materialist thought. Good work, and I'd like see more... E.E.

You have a very good portfolio. I like many of your works. And it seems to me you are like your photos. :)

Beautiful work and an inspiration to others.

I like your serial of California! The patterns of the rocks are amazing.

I forgot to answer you why I changed and repost my self portrait. Well, it's a long story. First, I love that image of myself a lot. The light beautifully shone upon my body and the way I live is more pure. I believe the mind and the body are closely intertwined, whereas mind governs over the body. Body should be clean and spiritual so that one could feel like being in the most beautiful sacred place. Whether it is on a mountain, shrine or church. Person should feel comfortable in its own body, should feel pleasantly.

Amazing PF, Jamie. Very nice work...great detail and perspective. Glad I stopped by! Best wishes...

Thank you for your many visits and comments on my work, which in turn drew me here to your extraordinary porfolio. Looking at such a wealth of images, I'm first struck with the lively colors, sharpness, and very effective compositions. Your subject matter is so varied, which I like...even to the Anza-Borrega desert, where I once camped! So far, I've been drawn to your folders "Inverted Reflections" (where I particularly love "Inverted House with Tree"), "Urban Reflection" (great title with its double meaning), and "Light & Shadow".

Wonderful work. I will visit again. Thank you.

Thank you very much for comments! You are very good photographer and You have very interesting portfolio. Perfect colours, creative compositions, I realy like your gallery. Warm regards.

Hi Jamie, This is Rachel Matthewson, Lois' granddaughter & David's daughter. How are you? I live in Southern California and have been trying to look for a job here, but I haven't had much luck with that. Lois suggested that I contact you about some suggestions. I have done some freelance photography work in the past couple of years and am really passionate about photography. I wanted to ask you for some suggestions on what I might be able to do to bring in some income with my photography. I am still a beginner and am eager to learn more. Let me know if you can help. My email address is r.matthewson08@hotmail.com. I'll talk to you soon.

Thank you very much. Rachel
