I like the different colors of these reeds. Something I've never seen before! Good find and nice shot! #3426Cheryl Meisel February 08, 2002
Thank you Brinn, they were pretty, the white ones blew my mind on camera. But I added tint to the red and blue one. LOL. Thanks for taking the time. Cheryl #5364Cheryl Meisel March 08, 2002
Thanks hon, and I DID? Where? laughingggggggg I didn't know that. #5964Katherine Chan April 15, 2002
You composed the colors and lines very well! Love it! #6970Cheryl Meisel April 15, 2002
Thanks Katherine, nice of you to take the time. This is a older photo already lol since then I now have a different camera. Cheryl #6972Cheryl Meisel April 15, 2002
Laughinggggggggggg well thanks a lot! 1. I don't have film it's digital so can shoot all day long. 2. I have seen a lot worse on walls LOL. 3. I kinda liked it, with that white reed and such. Not all photos can be scenes etc. In fact I like the unusual myself. 4. I am not really into it for the money as of yet, just a hobby. Thanks though! Cheryl #6979Brinn MacDougall April 16, 2002
Well..Cheryl what a strange reaction from this Thomas fellow. I want you to know I do sell my photos as a living, and this one would sell in my booth. As they say, can't please everyone all the time...BMAC #7002Cheryl Meisel April 16, 2002

Brinn big HUGSSSSSSSSS thanks. Hey if you don't laugh what else is there? Cheryl #7008Brinn MacDougall April 17, 2002
Cheryl....you're right, I've had people look at my photos and ask "why didn't I add something" to it that wasn't even there when I took it. Like flowers in a shot of a window that had a window box, which, didn't even belong to me..lol.Cheryl Meisel April 17, 2002
Brinn your totally refreshing. Yes I just hate that when someone says why don't you add something? DUH If it would of been there I would of shot it LOL. NO this didn't bother me at all don't any of you worry about it not at all. That shot was a long while ago, I move on lol. Like it or not, I love this with my heart and soul. I will sometimes put hours and hours into my work. My work is my art, it is a part of me. Not everyone likes me either laughinggggggggggg. But hey he was a help, selling photos? hummmmmmm lol.

HI Lee thanks for the comment laughingg even though this pic is old I have never forgot the comment lol. When I took that photo I LOVED that white reed and how it showed up, and I did NOTHING to it lol. But many times now I find myself saying to mine and others winners, "WOULD SOMEONE BUY THIS?" lol. Thanks for the comment hon and good luck on your entries, Cheryl #23706Conrad L. Conero May 26, 2019
This is old news by now, but I just found this site and I just want to say I would love to have this photo hanging on my wall. I love macro nature photography. I've seen a lot of photo books and photos in my time, and in my opinion I think this is a wonderful shot.Cheryl Meisel May 26, 2019
:) YAHOOOOOOOOO thank you Conrad, can I keep you for and UPLIFT laughingggg. Have a nice day! Cheryl #33068Murry Grigsby May 26, 2019
Cheryl, I missed all this COMBAT. You should have pointed out to Thomas that if he ever wants to be a writer he needs to improve his grammer :0) Talk about a waste of bandwidth. Whether you sell or not it's important to take pictures that make YOU happy. If it happens to make others happy then great. Your photo made me happy. #47811Cheryl Meisel May 26, 2019
Thank you Murry sweet of you. You know I still to this day look at a photo and say "Would someone buy this?" laughingggggggggggg. Cheryl #47815Conrad L. Conero May 26, 2019

It further occurs to me that since this was a finalist in the contest, he was probably jealous. :)Cheryl Meisel May 26, 2019
OH I agree 100% with you Conrad and Murry lol. If he was an editor he woulnd't have the time to run around mouthing every pic he didn't like lol. And nothing changes me as far as that goes you guys never worry lol. I shoot what I like. Still lol he did make me think and I sometimes find myself looking at yours and my photos and saying "Would anyone buy this?" lol Thanks Guys Cheryl #47875Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
