Warren Williams
I would like to see a bit more light on this image.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
At home I have had success with a small LED torch in this type of situation (experimenting!) – if I knew this was going to pop up Warren I would have put the torch in my pocket! It works so much better than flash.

satwant
Beautiful picture. You have shown the Holly bible in a very nice manner by using the single light. You were able to draw the attention of viewrs to the Bible as the caption says. In my view, this is a prize winning picture. Very well done Rosalie.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
I am so pleased you like it Satwant … I will have to try for another shot on a different day with different lighting and see how it goes. Thank you!
Josie Jackson
This is very beautiful Rosalie, I love the lighting and the glasses give it that lovely finishing touch, very well done. (I also use a LED torch sometimes, works a treat)
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
IT is fascinating seeing the results of a torch – it really is like painting!! Takes a bit of getting used to, but is magic for darker shots. Thanks Josie for the encouragement.

Words, inspired by light!!!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
What a thought-provoking comment Prasad … thank you
Ted Byrne
The photographic artist actually uses us as part of her composition. She finds things in our memories, experiences, and feelings which she can assemble into a combustible pile… and then she merely ignites it. “Merely”? Um well when she makes it look as easy… as simple… as you have here Rosalie… well it looks as if “merely” applies. And that is because a brilliant idea always seems obvious just as soon as the insightful person who conceived the idea – shows it to us.
Sigh… I am now going off to try to “merely” do something this insightful…. And ignite…. a pile of… Er…. how’d you do that assembly stuff again? Gotta think on that.
Wonderful work Rosalie.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Ted you do have a way with words (I was going to keep going here with alliteration but thought better of it! May end up with tongue-in-knot syndrome!). Thank you so much for your inisightful comment – it really resonates. I ALWAYS intend my shots to suggest a story … you have expressed that sentiment beautifully. THANK YOU!

Love it. Especially the spectacles, which add the human element to it, suggesting that this family Bible, unlike so many, actually was read. RSB

You are right Richard – and it is a little dogeared – so that is a positive also!!! Thank you for the kind words.
