...and Izzie, you shocked me by such a long absence here

Hope you are doing fine..... Your view on the image is just right and thoughtful thank you very much

Yup...still alive...I will be here just for a while. I might be out again soon, I do not know, depending on circumstances at the end of this month. I have missed a lot of your postings and misses you all a lot here. CiC is very addicting. I need to stay away for a while and chopped some vegetables, so to speak.

Anyway, 718 is a good question. I only know how long we live physically on earth depends on how long we chose to live in the first place. Our soul is different. It is immortal. Another beautiful rose, by the way...
Cheers.

[Wavelength]

I lost my groove for a few weeks after our trip to Reno. We have a few more trips in between and most times I stayed at home as after all the happenings here, our kitchen ends up being renovated lately, so I barely have time. I relaxed by playing music and joining my band when they practice at weekends. I'm the keyboardist. I got to be the one to stand up and shake my bootie (my grandchild's phrase, mind you...) LOL And of course, there's my cooking course. I am going to a two day workshop in Seattle soon to learn more of the Science of Cooking -- after my finger/s operation. I am hoping to be more careful or I might chop them off with a butcher's knife.

Scape 719 is nice, the wisdom too. I just sometimes think that love needs wisdom too...
Cheers...

Spending some time doing nothing, thinking nothing,simply just being where you are with presence of mind is the best way to relax and rejuvenate.....

720, image could use a bit more white points within the flock rather than the waters. Nicely composed and nice phrasing.

[Wavelength]

Thank you very much, John. But my tech-know is very poor to adjust as you have suggested

Nandakumar,

What software do you use, you could probably apply a preset to adjust the tonality?

[Wavelength]

I am using an old version of photoshop

Nandakumar,

If you are comfortable using the quick selection tool you can select the background/inverse/apply a shadows/highlight adjustment. If you combine with the blend mode you can fine tune a bit more. However, I realize this is your vision and the final output should ultimately include your tastes.

[Wavelength]

Actually after your suggestion i attempted section, inverse, adjusting tonality; but some how it did not help as you have envisioned; so abandoned

[NorthernFocus]

The wisdom in 720 is much more easily contemplated than achieved. Silencing one's mind is difficult indeed.

[Wavelength]

Yes, i fully agree,Dan; silencing one's mind is the most difficult thing, sometimes, like capturing the shadow which superimposes everything that tries to hold it....
