thank you Hussam,
I would like to pass your compliment on to the builder of this very special castle, who converted his garage into a fairycastle of concrete...
I just could not resist getting out of my car and capturing it on film!

Well spotted and well cropped!
Thank you for the comment on Puglia,
You are right, double upload, so I changed it after you were there... and you were right about the shadow too, thanks!

Dear Samuel,
I thing this is the better of the two. the b/w robs a whith lily of its colour. (I hate it too if a lily is robbed of its pollen-stems, just because they tend to smudge the furnityre...) Like the contrast between extreme sharpness, and blur.

Dear Ana,
thank you for your comments, almost a week ago. Had a look at your pictures, and sent lengthy one, which was not added, very likely since I put in a few links.
I expecially liked your blurry images and portraits (you sent in 2004), since I make portraits myself, combining painting and photography, and do some blurry images too.
It might be worthwile to discuss our work toghether. I was seeking a bit more glamorous style, but I love the strong expression of your portraits!
regards, Huub

Yes, I am happy to help you! There are two ways to make parts in focus - sharp - in a picture:
1. with automatic focus: have the part you want to be in focus in the centre of the picture, push the button half way, the camera focusses and, while you hold the button half-supressed, then move the camera in such a way that you have the picture in the screen or viewfinder like you want it, and then press the button fully.
The second picture you make in the same way, but focussed on a part at a different distance. For instance: first a picture of the face, made in a normal way, and then a picture focused on a hand, then keeping the shutter-button half way surpressed you move the camera so that the face is in the centre and make the second picture.
2. with manual focus, and on a tripod: focus on the face, make pic 1, then adjust the focussing so that the hands are sharp and make the second picture.
Then you open both pictures in your computer, copy one as a new layer on top of the other, make it transparant, move the top layer so that it fits the lower, and erase the parts in the top layer where you want to see the bottom layer.
The pencil picture would lend itself well to this approach.
Is this clear enough to you?
regards, Huub

great, the grain adds a lot to this picture! It creates unity between hand an background!
A simple and strong picture!

Dear Mohamed,
Again, just like the meetings phot of the pencil... If you want everything to be in focus, you could try taking several pictures with a different focus, even without using a tripod, and then digitally combining those...? focus one on the hands, and one on the face, and combine.. a way of getting an impossible depth of field... something you may be interested in.
greetings, Huub

Interesting - as it is! If you want everything to be in focus, you could try taking several pictures with a different focus, using a tripod, and then digitally combining those...? But it may be that this is just the thing you want to avoid... it is a way of getting an impossible depth of field... something you may be interested in...!
