Dear Billy,
I really like the coffee cup series. The swirls of creamer are beautiful and serene.
Best regards,
Kyle

I really like this photo. The balance overall is nice, but the upper right hand corner seems a little weak. A tighter crop might work?

Dear Susie,
The main effect was to take a greyscale image of the photo, then to dodge and burn it in photoshop to create an even and rich texture. A copy of this was then pasted into the black channel in CMYK mode.
The blurred effect in the background was produced during shooting by using a narrow depth of field.
The image was taken when I was shooting images of pairs of objects as a theme working on the idea of 'couples'.
The image reminded me of an elegant elderly woman who had lost her life time soulmate. The twisting vine seemed to futher suggest the impending doom of the ravishes of age. Thus the title. There was another play of words in that the pair of flowers was in fact on my door step and I had passed it many times during the summer. Thank you for the comment on the background. I will consider seriously your suggestion.
Many thanks,
Kyle

Nice balance and I like the depth of focus. I have a guess as to what the title refers. Maybe sometimes a cigar is not a cigar?

Actually, that is an excellent question that is begged by the the title.
Maybe a bone shaped lake?
I'll have to give it a bit of thought!
Thanks,
Kyle

Hi Michael,
I was playing with a way to express the idea that reality can be an illusion or a phantom.
Best, Kyle

Hi again. Nice image, was it taken on the path that goes along the pond where everyone goes out on the row boats?

Hi Joann,
Thanks for the comment. I have fond memories of them as well. My brother and I used to have cattail 'fights' when we where kids. It was great fun!

hey Dan,
Thanks for your comments about Lost in a Fog. I like the sense of humor you show in your imagines. So were the eyes lit up by a natural reflection here or by PS?

Enemy to cars! They all must die! ha ha ha ha ha ha! (really, I'm just joking. Deer are lovely. I can't imagine how anyone would want to kill one. That is of course except when they jump out in front of your car and you have to go and get your front right fender replaced (and mirror also). But, you were cheap and got a really high deductable. so you end up eating the cost of the repair, and live in fear of the evil deer.

Hey thanks for the comments! I was walking a line between trying to really make it look like a painting and not overdoing it. I might of overdone it. But, as a first go I had a lot of fun with it.

Thanks for the support. I thought hard about bumping the contrast. It?s good to find that subtly is appreciated.

Very nice idea with the photography!
Also, I would agree with your provocative title theory. Perhaps, a posting of two images both just pure white, but one with a title like "Nude..." and the other with a title like "Rain..." would prove your theory?
