A special thanks to all yesterday who replied about listing on Photoblogs.org. It seems from the responses that there are more problems with the site than I imagined. At first I thought I had done something to get blackballed! But now I see I'm in good company.

A wonderful abstract shot with this great light/shadow play. I like the colours combination.

I like the precision of your title :)
The shadow play is lovely, they are so deep and rich - and that reddish wood is so warm.

Sorry for posting twice - you can delete this one if you want! - but I wanted to add that a lot of times I have problems posting comments on your site - I get an error message from Aminus3... :(

@cat: Thanks so much for your visit and comments. I'm sorry you have trouble posting comments on my site -- ???? I wonder if others have had this problem here or on other AM3 sites?
Yes, I couldn't think of what to call this photo, so I looked at the data from the camera when I shot the photo: 3:09:41, to be exact. :)

I like the deep warm colours and the differences in contrast here, and great title.

Ohhhh....love this one! You are the shadow expert! This abstract is fascinating and I could look at it and daydream for an hour. It is like watching clouds form different shapes!

Nicely done! A bit of a change from what you normally post, but it is a great composition!

I'll just sit and soak this one up... sundrenched walls and deep shadow. I always enjoy your representation of things we cannot see.

I imagine the afternoon sun to give some warmth, and although the darker shadows seem cold, it's a friendly image.

The light is amazing as in all your images. The warm wood tones are so beautiful. Another nice one.

Strong shot, darkness surrounding a strip of warmth. I like!

I love how this glares back with such confidence . . perhaos because, by now, I know you had no business taking the shot !
[ Picking up the report from Cat, there have been system-wide problems with AM3 of late but nothing too serious or peculiar to your site. Still one of the best services around ].
