Korean Friendship BellPosted by Suzanne (Huntington Bch, California, United States) on 14 January 2009 in Art & Design and Portfolio. There is no doubt that once you know the story behind a photo that there is a better understanding of its contents. The big challenge to photographers is to be able to tell the story with only the image. The other thing is that it is not really necessary to feel the same emotion the photographer has, but rather that a response is made that triggers off a connection to something in the viewers life or reveals information that is new to him. -- Philip Wayner San Pedro, California If you like my photos, please take a moment to leave a rating on VFXY.

Barry from Kingwood, United StatesHi Suzanne...Great warm colors. Look so inviting! 14 Jan 2009 5:54am john4jack from Corvallis, United StatesThis opens up on my screen showing only the top half of the photograph; then you scroll down and see those gorgeous colors. It reminded me of being on retreat at a center in the hills above Santa Barbara. The composition and the lighting and the colors all come together to create such a feeling of calm and peace. 14 Jan 2009 6:25am standley from Carquefou, FranceThe lighting is superb. What an appealing composition! I like the warm tones. 14 Jan 2009 6:25am Scott Schilling from San Martin, United StatesVery strong shadows and great light. The ocean view through the columns really draws me into the photo. Nice work. I also enjoy the quotes! 14 Jan 2009 6:30am Barbara from Florida, United StatesFabulous! Beautiful light. I recognized this right away. I stood right there and took a photo of my niece and nephew. My niece still lives in San Pedro. So nice to see it again from your perspective. 14 Jan 2009 6:37am Jean-François from LES ISSAMBRES, Francecontre-jour extra ! ....... les lumières sont bien exploitées .....
