Natasek In reply to Diprivan [2010-08-31 17:16:05 +0000 UTC]

and you think that age is best? no no, first few months are great, you just feed and change them.. that's all.. then they start walking, touching, breaking things, asking questions...

I like to befriend new people Other than that I like how you take pictures of everyday scenes and yet the photos look like they are picked from a movie. I also like how you react to bad comment on your art. The one that comes to mind is a photo of your wife(?) coming out of the shower framed by the curtains and a viewer left a really nasty comment about it.

Your photos don't look staged, they look like snapshots from life and that is what I really like a lot about your gallery

Hey Jeff!

I can't thank you enough for your incredibly nice comment. You have no idea how much that means to me. That's just one of those things that you read and can't help but smile. That comment made my day.

Thank you so very very much.

"2001 is basically a visual, nonverbal experience. It avoids intellectual verbalization and reaches the viewer's subconscious in a way that is essentially poetic and philosophic. The film thus becomes a subjective experience which hits the viewer at an inner level of consciousness, just as music does, or painting. Actually, film operates on a level much closer to music and to painting than to the printed word, and, of course, movies present the opportunity to convey complex concepts and abstractions without the traditional reliance on words. I think that 2001, like music, succeeds in short-circuiting the rigid surface cultural blocks that shackle our consciousness to narrowly limited areas of experience and is able to cut directly through to areas of emotional comprehension."
