About Friends may come
and friends may go.
But during that time
the truth will show.

Comments are good
in the right context.
Praise is right,
if it fits the test.

But, criticism
my friends,
can be taken
out of trend.

Write your words
so they fit with,
what you have to say.
Oh dammit!!!

Sometimes words hurt
and are taken the wrong way.
Talking online is different
than talking day to day.

So be careful my friends
with what you write.
Say what is good,
but do not bite.

Give constructive criticism
as all that it's due.
But, remember my friends,
it's to 'help' me and you.

I have a friend
who has been hurt.
And I want to say to others,
'I hope you have learnt.'

Stand tall and be proud
of who you want to be.
Stand tall my friend
and shine for me.

This is dedicated to that special friend, who will remain nameless. Yes, some of you may know that person, but names are not the concern here......! Shine for me everyone....please!!

Hi Judi,
Nice work you did here, I?ve just read a comment from someone to a friend that I really didn?t like...
We are all here to learn, to share experiences, and to enjoy the time we spend with Photography, unfortunately, some few don?t know about this.
Excellent picture and 'about'.

Congratulations.

I?m with you on this. ;)

Rona. I am sorry to hear that. I think the person that offended you was the same person that offended me...actually on the same day. I have been attacked by rude commenters about 4 times now on here...and I won't stand for it. Yes I get hurt, yes I have a cry. But then I think to myself. Am I going to let them beat me....and I going to lower myself to their pitiful level...NOOOOOOOO!! I will stand proud in what I do and not let them win.

Judi, I was reading the forums about the abuse from some users and saw your comment so I checked it out. I love what yu put in the about. Oh man! I wish I had that last week. Someone was rather rude to me on a post and several came to my defense and to me it got out of hand but it's over now and I am learning how to deal with people like that. It isn't easy but I will not stop doing what I love to do because of that. I am on a dry spell right now but I will be back.
I did remove the image and the comment was not even about the image itself. But I removed it because I did not want to see it and be reminded of it when I am here. Therefore it is in the past and I will keep learning.
God Bless You!
Rona J.
Oh, great photo. Sorry...

Aww thanks Kel. Now, tell me...is it something about Aussie chicks that makes us so damn bold, while others don't say much about it...or are we just naive as to what we should or shouldn't do...hmmm!!

Hey Jud.... such a beautiful thing for you to do... but then it doesn't surprise me that you were the one doing this..... YOU are a beautiful person..... i really think the only way to stop this harrasment is if your not a donor you can't comment... there a way too many non-donor's on this site, i feel if they don't want to donate they can look but not post or comment..... it's the only way to keep track of things.....
cheers Jud

Yes...that came from adjusting the curves. There was a slight pink in some parts of the sky and that was probably enhanced more when I adjusted it.

I liked the unusual look of it, so left it.

Thanks Stephen. I am pleased you can relate to this. I know that I nearly left on two different occasions when I had sexual references thrown at me by some disgusting perverted men. But I figure...why should I let them beat me..and also why should I stoop to their level by retaliating. I know I retaliated once and felt very bad for it. SO NO MORE!!! If these people would just go and get a life, everybody would be happier.

But for now...we have to stick together and beat this. And I know we will.

Thankyou my sweet(and dedicated) friend.

Beautiful comment and a very beautiful gesture also Judi - I can relate. Unfortunately, I have lost three good friends on here due to abuse :-(

I hope some of these people get fed up and move to another site !

As Pete says, you certainly have a fabulous way with words.

Thankyou so much Pete. You gave me a chuckle. You see, I did try many attempts at cropping the base off to follow the rule of thirds with the horizon. But it just looked....well...plain boring. Like so many other skiing images already out there and I wanted something different. Oops..I didn't mean for it to sound like the other skiing images are boring...far from it...but I wanted something unique. Hmmm...!! Anyway, so I went for the large expanse of water and gave the area space to suit the mood of the image.

Hope that makes sense...LOL!!

Pete Nicholls   {K:633} 1/28/2005
Hi Judy, you certainly have a way with words!! The photo has good impact, but would have not put the horizon in the center of the frame. Bringing the horizon closer to the bottom would also have put the skier in a better composition.

Regards,

Pete
