My Photostream is my Gallery, as well as adding new work I dust off old favourites for a second look, or just generally move things around as the whim takes me, it is not a rigid structure.

 

“To the complaint, 'There are no people in these photographs,' I respond, There are always two people: the photographer and the viewer.” ~Ansel Adams

 

"You don’t take a photograph, you make it." ~Ansel Adams

 

“Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer - and often the supreme disappointment.” ~Ansel Adams

 

“There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.“ ~Ansel Adams

 

About Me:

 

Although I dabbled in photography decades ago, I never processed my own film and was ultimately disappointed with the output of the film processors and the hobby died a death. With the coming of the digital age I became interested again, and after a succession of compact cameras I decided to buy a Canon 400D in 2007, that's when I also joined Flickr, this was the real beginning of my passion for photography. Although I have sold images, I am an amateur photographer that spends the money and the time for the love of the art.

Many people "take" photos, (snapshots). Some are involved in a serious study of the Photographic Arts, and Image creation. A few, Steve Garrington, and others Make Photographs. I have a little saying that I think that Steve would agree with... I "See" the Music with my Ears, and "Hear" the Light with my Eyes." Being a Musician as well as a 55-year veteran of photography, I feel that without music, I would never have been the photographer I am today. Steve's work here shows to all that he is far and above the average photographer. His style and feelings come through as music to our eyes.

When I need to see dramatic landscapes, I somehow always come back to this page. A true sense of timing, presentation, and structure can be seen throughout this gallery. The force and beauty of nature is easily observed in just about every landscape image on display. If living by the few quotes written above are part or most of the inspiration, then the talent of finding and capturing the right images lay in the mind of Steve. A truly wonderful catalog of photographs here!

A truly gifted landscape photographer and editor of his digital work. Love your eye for subject material and your use of light (after all everything we see is light). Your work makes the outdoors and Mother Nature come to life and that is a talent not many people possess. Keep shooting, keep sharing, keep returning to those wonderful places and see what nature offers up each time (because it's never the same twice).

I stayed fascinated with the Steve Garrington’s photo gallery. His technical ability to work with the natural light meets with the elegance with which he photographs the world. Colors, lights, depth of field and composition are in perfect harmony in each of your photos. I think that the secrets for such fine-looking shots are your soul’s sensitivity and as your eyes see the world around. Congratulations for the gallery only worthy of those high-souled and perfect technique holders, the main tools of a photographer, contrarily to what many think that are the camera and lens.

Лучшего настроения моря я не видела. Лучшего шторма, который захватывает дух и становишься совершенно беспомощным, но таким вдохновленным. И таких маяков мне не доводилось видеть.

wentloog continues to inspire! we are impressed by him in our group and i think he deserves all the support he can get as he is such a original pursuer of excellence, well worth keeping an eye on as we all want to improve our game and its great to be shown how its done. theres not many photographers out there that can really pull out the stops and get the best picture they can possibly do,which takes a lot of time ,dedication and determination. well done on your achievements so far! love your work, keep it coming!

Wentloogs photos are very eye catching and pop right out at you from others you might see in the same pool or even in your recent contact's photos. I have only been contacts with this flickr member for a little while now, but going through their stream at all of their pages of photos, i have never had a negative feedback on any. I plan to stick around and stay in touch with this contact as long as they stay on flickr or as long as i do. keep up the great work!
