Hello Earthlings
« on: September 21, 2015, 21:15:45 »
I clicked on what I thought to be an old link and much to my surprise was teleported back several years to a small friendly forum. Nice to see so many familiar faces, I'm happy to have stumbled upon the revival!

Yes thank you for the correction, familiar names.
Only some of the faces are familiar.
Mine maybe not, but perhaps my name?

Yes, definitely a familiar name, and one that I have great pleasure to read again.
I still remember your portraits of "sophisticated" or "original" friends, pardon me if it didn't go through as intended, it was definitely meant in a positive way!

Hi Olivier, thank you for the kind words. It is good to see you here as well.
Yes, I seem to recall what you are referring too. If we are speaking of the same thing, I did my best to remove all traces of that from the internet!   ::)

Welcome! The shot is really nicely composed with the figure standing out perfectly but so far away... Super ;)

A bold and I dare say unusual interpretation of the harsh landscape of Death Valley. It has a lot going for it.

Hope to see many more future contributions !!

Thank you all for the warm welcomes and kind words. Death Valley is a bold and unusual landscape in itself. An inspiring place.

Hi Charlie, good to have you here.

The title of your message is great. Reminded me of a scene from Independence Day :)
