Charles Miller Photography

Charles, Welcome to PN, and thank you for taking time to comment on my photo (Where has Summer Gone?) Best wishes, George

cool start,welcome, i especially like the gator part from your portfolio.

THanks for your kindly comments. You have beautiful shoots of flowers.

Happy New Year!!!!!

Charles, Thanks once again for taking time to critique one of my photos (Flowers), your observations echo my own concerns about the image, and I appreciate you noting them rather than just moving on. Best wishes, George

Your collection are impressive and striking.I saw very nice details ..Also, thank you for your visit my page.With my greetings..Y/A

Charles Thanks for stopping by my portfolio. You have many great photos, the sunflowers, in fact all of your flowers are very good. Overall your images have such great saturated colors, I really enjoyed seeing them. As for "Small Passageway" for a 2MP camera it's a good shot. Tom

Thank you for the comments on my portfolio. I'm just learning and trying to figure out the basics. our portfolio is good as well. I really enjoyed your alligator shots. Your spillway series is quite enjoyable!

Charles, Nice to hear from you again. Thanks for the kind comment, observations and generous rating of my photo. Regards, --George

I see you are having fun with this series as I thought you might,. The shapes and colors really lend themselves to some great abstract treatment.

Thank you very much for your kind and intructive comments. I had a look as you suggested in your portofolio and I discovered some real jewels here. My thoughts on your treatment of abstracts are vaque and I don't think they would help you much. I know one thing though; Is the result that matters. Regards ''Kranos'' feel free if you like to experiment with it. It would be interesting to see what you come up with. Note though some historical facts about it. ''Kranos'' (helmet) was worn in 490 BC in the battle of Marathon by a Greek participant. On the other side of it there is a gaping hole caused by a spear we assume that the wearer died. Kranos is now one of the exhibits at the British museum. Armed with this information it woul be interesting, as I said, to see the result should you decide to do something with it. Warmest regards. Dimitris.

Charles,

I enjoyed looking through your portfolio, you have some beautiful and varied images. I left individual critiques on three of your photos in your 'florals section'.

Jim

Hi Charles, Thank you for your visit. You have a lovely portfolio, very diverse. Your "Flamingoes" are just stunning! Best regards, Vadim

Charles;

Thank you for your comment on my portfolio, I am working on getting better glass so I can get some cleaner shots. You have a very nice portfolio also, I hope one day to have some shots as good as yours.

Thanks again

Matt

Fine pictures with great colours, congratulations ! Alex.

Thanks for your comment on my portfolio! I only commented five pictures because only five comments are being shown on your work space page!

Quite a fine portfolio you have and about the PS stuff, don't worry, you can only use it for color balance and brightness contrast. I use it a lot because I don't have what to take pictures of and must do something out of nothing using PS!

Hi Charles,

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to comment on one of my postings. I really enjoyed looking thru your portfolio. I see that we have some things in common (waterfalls & flowers) to name two. I also recognized some of your shots from The Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ. Is that right? If so we have another thing in common as I love to go there & just shoot away. I don't have any shots from there posted on this site (I don't think), but maybe I'll get around to posting some one day. I know I have the same reflected shot of the spire...

Nice work, Regards, Jerry

I love very much the waterfalls, ice, abstract are one from the best .You have a monumental portfolio with excellent shots and great colours, congratulations ! from Romania Roxana Chiru

Some fabulous images here. Congrats and a belated welcome to PN.

Charles-

I've visited your portfolio few times but always got too distracted looking at some of the great shots, and I forgot to comment. Besides the spillway series, I love the sunflowers, images from Alaska and ice series. You have some really fantastic shots there. Your portfolio is a "fun place" to roam around and very diverse!

Charles, Good collection of images. I think the floral shots are some of the best. I'll go though when I have some time and comment on some of the individual images that stand out to me. All the Best! Doug.

Hi Charles, I like a lot your floral shots but also your waterfalls, Alaskan landscapes and your critters. Best Regards, Tibi

your portifolio is wonderful. I enjoyed all your photos, but specially the flowers. I also like flowers (please, have a look on my folder of orchids). Thanks for your comments on my last posting. Regards, Chico do Vale.

I really like that you have a great mix in your portfolio ... The pictures I like best is your abstract photos I think you have a huge sense for form and composition .. Very interesting pictures ... Would also like to say thank you for welcome me to the PN .. I´ll be back ....

Until next time, Jill

thanks for commenting on my images. you have very good eye for composition....i really like your abstract series. i think what you lack in is the tec skills... but these can be learned. through your mentors and just getting out there to shooting and trying new things will improve you skills. best regards, kenny

Dear Charles...wonderful and pleasant portfolio...Regards(Bobby).

Charles;

Thank you once again for your gracious comments about my portfolio. The day that I took the shot “Reflections” it was a very cloudy day (almost dark) and that gave the log a very eerie look that drew me to it.

Thank you once again.

Matt

Charles, you have a very nice and wide ranging portfolio. I enjoyed viewing the floral and nature images the best.

Regards, John

Charles, interesting portfilio. I love your sense of humor. Ron

Congratulations for your beautiful photos. I enjoyed seen your orchids, they are beautiful (Dendrobium, Phalaenopsis and others). Keep sharing your beautiful photos with us. I will be visiting and posting comments on your photos. Regards, Chico do Vale.

Charles, I really enjoyed looking through your portfolio. Keep up the good work. -Jim

Thanks for your kind comment on my photo "Self-Portrait" and I agree with you about it. Warm regards to you. Have a good time.

Dear Charles,

This is with delay that I come to visit your portfolio. Thanks for your comments on my images. I really enjoyed going through your portfolio. You have a lot of beautiful images. Your flower collection is really nice. I like too the waterfalls. Very nice work. Best regards, Jean-Marc

Charles, First of all thank you for commenting on my portfolio. You have a stunning portfolio filled with some beautiful images, I love your flowers and waterfalls which are breathtaking. I will be checking in from time to time. Keep shooting. Regards, Patsy

Charles, thank you for looking at my photos and the comment. You have some VERY nice work here. I expecially like the abstract folder and the Gear photo.

Congratulations Charles on a beautiful collections of photos. If you have such an impressive collection after only one year on Photo.net then I'm really looking through your portfolio in a couple of more years! I particularly enjoyed "waves of blue" with it's lovely softness, "magnolia" with it's great lighting and "hay" with it's humor. I must also comment on a comment that you made on your biography page about learning from other Photo.net member's comments. I will say, without any hesitation, that I've learned more about photography from Photo.net's members like Will King, Dave Dube and SO many others who took the time to share constructive criticism than from a mountain of books I've read about photography. Keep up the good work Charles and I'll look forward to your future posts.

Dear Charles, you have a very nice and beautiful portfolio. Your pictures shows that you are great admirer of nature. Thanks for taking time and leaving a kind comment on one of picture.

Charles thank you for taking time to comment on my photo

Beautiful portfolio, with such lovely and amazing shots, excellent done, keep in touch and best regards from Mexico // Salvador

Thanks for your advice. You have a perfectly organised and very rich album. Excellent work. You have a very good eye for things. Wish you many more interesting shots. Regards, Lena

It is a real pleasure going through you portfolio, I enjoyed it a lot. You have a nice eye and you seem to be very connected with the camera. I congratulate your wonderful work.

thanks for taking the time to comment on one of my photos, it is appreciated

Beautifull portfolio!! Your photographs show a great talent and good abilities with a great originality.. all your photos are so great.. amanzing.. intense!! Congratulations.. very fantastic portfolio! -Gil-

Exceptional portfolio! Thanks.

Thank goodness you finally took the plunge. Digital photoraphy has changed everything, so we're all neophytes to some extent. After over 40 years using film, I know time will run out before I can ever hope to catch up. The artistic possibilties of this new medium are infinte and exciting. Judging from your portfolio, you're off to an excellent start. Have fun! Jerry King

Your thoughts about my shots at ESP are graciously accepted. I've been going and shooting at ESP since it opened back in the 1990's. I've got a good progress of change at the place. I've also spoken to the management to gain access to areas not seen by the public (eg. warden's office). Ireally liked your flower shots... despite my many efforts at shooting them, I've not produced anything like yours. Wow! Have you been to Longwood Gardens west of Philadelphia? I'd love to see what you'd do among those flowers.

Really beautiful work in your portfolio, Charles!

I like it....

With best regards, Ruud.

RE: Colour Waves: These are lovely, beautiful use of imagination and colour, a visual feast! My thoughts are as follows:

Space amusements:

I like the addition of the extra shapes encircling the central one. It adds an extra dimension of interest, I keep expecting the Jetsons to fly in!

Crescent:

I like the small green shape in the centre, especially the contrasting colours underneath it. The green on the right hand side is good, it provides a container for the shapes

Root Canal:

Not really a good name for this one, (although I think I can see why you called it that). For another effect, and because for me this one is a bit flat, perhaps add another colour, mirroring the red lines, to add interest.

Clef:

One of my favourites, it really evokes a feeling of music

Polyp:

Again, bit flat, and for me, not really interesting, it doesn’t take me anywhere, shape wise or colour wise

Happy heart no. 3

I like this one, plenty of visual interest, of course the centre is the ‘heart’ of this image

Happiness in a glass:

Rather flower-like, it reminds me of an orchid in a vase

Flame:

This is lovely, I like the ‘flame’, I like the way the composition flows upwards, the green shape is lovely too

Well imaginaed and executed, thanks for sharing, cheers, Anthea :)

Thank you for your kind comment on my photos. really i like your portfolio and you have many various good works. indeed i like Alaskan Mountain, Fantasy Dahlia and Two glories. the last one has captured with good light and very good composition. Regards, Shahram

Hi Charles

Thanks for your comment on my Night Light photo. Actually the picture came out underexposed (it was taken in mid afternoon). My camera settings were f6.3 at 1/640 shutter speed, ISO 200 . I changed the shutter speed right after to 1/125 and that "corrected" it. However I liked the mistake better than the correction - I guess more dramatic... although like you suggested mayby make a bit lighter.

Thanks, John

Hi Again Charles,

The "Hitting the Wall" sculptures that you were curious about is located in downtown Spokane, WA at the riverside park. One of the sculptures looked like it was ready to colapse - thus "Hitting the Wall". I did take the time to briefly look at your portfolio and it's very impressive - it deserves more that just the brief look that I took and will get back to it.

Regards, John

A very inspired close up photographer.Some of the work can be used as lesson for that kind of lovers.

Thank you Charles for taking the time to comment on my pictures and portfolio. I appreciate your kind words.

You have a beautiful portfolio here. I like the variety you have here and the fact I can find shots that stand out in each of your folders. Good eye and well done!

Wishing you the best on Xmas and the New Year 2010, may all your dreams come true, sincerely // Salvador

Happy New Year, Charles. I really enjoyed going through your portfolio. There are many interesting shots about many different subjects. I can see your personal interpretation on lots of images.

Roberta Davidson

Charles,

What a wonderful and varied portfolio!

I appreciate your comments on my shot too. Your orchids are outstanding.

Diane

Hi Charles, Just want to say how much I enjoy this portfolio. Love the creativity.

Hello Charles:

Thank you for taking the time to comment and rate my White Orchid critique submission. It's an honor to have someone with your talent commenting on my photos since I am only just a beginner. Your gallery is amazing and I really love the way you see things. Thanks again. Regards, Renee

What an extensive, beautiful and creative portfolio. I really enjoyed your work. I will be back. Gail

Hi Charles, What a beautiful portfolio, the composition, detail and colors are outstanding. Thank you for your comment on my portfolio and calla lily. I will stop by your pictures often to see new images. Regards Carol

Hi Charles:

Just stopping by to say "Hello" and to tell you thank you for your kind comments on some of my photographs over the past few months.  I'm really BAD at keeping up with my comments and writing back.  Please forgive me, ok?  I really love the new work you have shared here.  Keep up the great work and please keep sharing.  Regards, Renee

Hi Charles, Thank you for your comments on my pictures. Your portfolio is beautiful. Love the florals. Regards Carol

Your portfolio is very inspiring. I love the water lilly shots.  I will make one of your shows sometime.  Gail

Charles,

Thanks for checking out my cloud shots! I can't wait for another storm to come through to try again.....

Diane

Charles:  Took a look at the Nova Scotia photos as you suggested.  May are very good.  I really enjoyed the ones taken of the Peggy's Cove and the fishing gear.  Tom

Charles, I like your latest three. Like me you have got tired of simple 'lotus portraits' and and looking for variety. That's when it gets interesting. But you need to to have ready access to the flowers, which you and are both lucky to have. I like your dragonflies, but as with the lotus, perhaps more so, you have to watch the background, although this is harder to do because the dragonflies aren't always obliging! I'll crop the fisherman a bit more, but I have already taken away a lot. I worked hard to make that image because to tell the truth it was badly exposed (poor use of my polarizer), but I think it turned out interestingly.

Best wishes to you and your family in 2011. Andrew Campbell.

May every blessing of this Christmas Season be yours, may you find time to relax with family and friends....enjoy, and make many fond memories....most sincerely, Gail

What a stunning portfolio. So many colours. Great job. Thank you for your comment and suggestion concerning the way of printing a photo. I would have never even thought about metallic paper. Wish you a happy New Year.

Great and original portfolio ! Great photos ! Congratulations for your work !

Hey, you've got a really strong port going here, and I also love your bio... very well written!  Keep up the good work, and hopefully you can do some nudes to add to your port!

Best,

Michael

Charles, 

Thanks for your kind words on my images in "No Words: Hands At Work".  You have a wonderful portofolio. Love those images of Scultures and Abastract.  Nicely captured. Bravo.

Hi Charles,

Thanks for taking the time to look at my protfolio and offering constructive advice, I appreciate it.

I love your work with fireworks, not easy to master as clearly as you have here.

First exhibit has some delightful photography...........indeed your whole protfolio is varied across several mediums of photography, which is a credit to your confidence and ability.

Please feel free to continue to offer me advice as I continue in my development.

All the best,

Mark

Thanks to your comment I browsed your portfolio and I'm really impressed by your photography. You have some excellent work here. Thanks for sharing and your comment on my Feathers.

Best regards Sadegh

WOW!! Absolutely wonderful photographs. I am still looking at them. and will be tomorrow. So many interesting shots, especially your spider webs. Thanks for the welcome. I am still trying to learn my way around but thank goodness I am making progress. Again, great work. Whoa, Now I don't which I like best. The roses are great, especially the pink one. The fireworks are super nice, and I also really like the artistic way you did the shells. Again ---great work.

Wow, you have a great selection of pictures and all are outstanding. If I had to pick my favorites of your portfolio, it would have to be some of the flowers...so clear they don't look real. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Charles - love the Maine album... some very creative shots and nice "local color" scenes... brings back memories of this past summer... we took our boat up there for 3 months, and I took "a bazillion" photos. Would love to know where you took the pics... Camden? Bar Harbor?  Any time n Acadia NP?

You have a great varied portfolio, it is nice to look ad your foto's, the are very sharp and have great colors. 

Regards. 

What an amazing camera eye you have. I enjoy looking at your images.
