camilla_k: That is exactly what I was trying to say. I have never made any claims of keeping it real in my own imaging, as I prefer it eccentricly over-the top. And I do believe there is a misconception here at this forum that all of us aspire to work for glossy fashion mags, where the standard is very strictly set. So, I understand where Ant is coming from, as that is his field of expertise. In my own work I primarely work with accomplished artists, where I am in charge for omptimizing their work for gallery exhibits and book publications. Most of that material is strictly confidential, with contracts preventing me from publically taking credit for it. My portfolio is thus predominantly a showcase of my own projects. And I genuinely appreciate all kinds of feedback, but in a constructive way, much like yours.
winsunn: Thank you for saying. In my work, I refrain from using any filter other than the unsharp mask. My images are accomplished by hours of painting in different opacities. That is all.
Ant: Wow, you really hit rock bottom there with your bullying, taking a swing at my writing too. For your information, I started out my career in writing, and though I excelled in it, I left it for imaging. I understand five languages, out of which I am fluent in three. Yes, my vocabulary may be a teeny more extensive than yours, as I grew up in a very scholastic surrounding. Does that really make it correct of you to mock me?
Even though I find your attention flattering and all, I would rather see you channel all that anger - or whatever it is - into something positive.
