[Rufus]

[peter]

uhauha ok .. .
i think ill go to sleep now then .. b4 i think of ne more weird things ..

[dewy]

Not a weird thing, it is a good Idea and I hope it is soon implimented =), Nice shot rufus =) I tihnk it's just my taste but I don't really like the manipulation you areusing, I tihnk it is kinda to over done =\

[Rufus]

You make a very valid point Dewy.
I'm largely showing you my most altered pics. They represent about one third of what I shoot.
Soon, I'll post some more natural shots for you to see, but I dont want to make this a "Rufus's showcase."

Later.....................

I think your shots are cool Rufus... I think photos would fall into 3 categories - (1) natural, (2) altered, but natural looking (3) altered, but surreal.

Everyone has their own tastes; personally I don't mind as long as it's done artfully.
