well either that or you are smoking something - and you should share 

[Jakov Minić]

thanks Hans!
whenever somebody recognises Bjørn in my images my heart starts pumping with joy
to me, it means that i am doing something right 
others might state that i am a copy-cat and that i don't have a style of my own, but let's not focus on such thoughts, since i cannot focus anyhow 

[Jakov Minić]

elsa, the best ganja i ever tasted was in south africa and swaziland!
hopefully we'll get a chance to share a puff or two in the future!
and then i'll let you use the heligon 

[Thomas Stellwag]

Heligon or smoking is enough, both together is too much for one poor soul

the diamond stars  looking plant is outstanding

[Frank Fremerey]

Sorry to be so indifferent but I like them all. Esp. mention goes to the bug on the flower and the bw basketball
scene in the middle of nowhere.

fortunately Jakov - we are allowed to be totally creative and everything goes on NG. Which means I am exposed to stuff I wouldn't normally seek out. That is good for me.
Dope is still illegal in SA.. 

[Jakov Minić]

Dope is still illegal in SA.. 

But it's good for you 

[John Geerts]

Today I mounted my beloved Heligon Rodenstock 100/1.6 on the panda. I purposely didn't do it for some time, afraid of becoming overly addicted to it
It goes without saying how much I like this combination, and how much fun I have shooting and processing the images!

That's something I recognize    Great shots.

[elsa hoffmann]

But it's good for you 

And I do not disagree.

bring that out of focus camera and come to SA again

[Jakov Minić]

Last night whilst waiting for my kids to return from an open air theatre I didn't know what else to do but to photograph the open sky from my enormous porch. As you can see at 28mm I can see a lot of the sky

[Jakov Minić]

That's something I recognize    Great shots.

Thanks, John!

[Jakov Minić]

The Nikon AW1 is loads of fun!
Selfys underwater can be difficult at times, but I like that my daughter and I are chopped off in this one

[Gary]

I love those star trails. I've never done them ... but I love what others can do.

[Jakov Minić]

Thanks gary, I am certain you can create them with ease. Just point your camera into the sky and set the shutter to about 10 minutes

Here is another focussed and colorful image of mine, I know Elsa likes those

[Gary]

That is absolutely beautiful. How much post manipulation was necessary to create such an image? Being an old photojournalist ... I've been trained to document and accuracy ... at times it is hard to see outside that box.
