Nice picture, but what is the picture's theme? "The Kiss" or what? and why so many posts saying the same thing by different people? I'm considering this site myself and just trying to figure it all out. Very lovely bride.

This photo was snapped as the helicopter landed. There was no set up and the couple just kissed,and totally oblivian of the helicopter or the noise.

Hi Jen. Sorry was not talking to you!I was giving my oppinion on all the photoshop coments. I am just sort of getting tired of the coments "this is photoshop and it should not be here". Like I said we all have a right to participate and we all can decide it we want to vote for an image or not.
3:16 PM Nov 06 view image and comments
No problem Bozzzz, but E. L. Moller needs to read my reply to you again because mine had no malice so for him or her to even comment about Photoshop was ridiculous and I was only talking to you. Wow! People really should grow up and catch a grip! None of this is necessary. Have a great evening Bozzzzz and thanks for writing me back.

Jen, sorry you misread my point. I guess I should have stated it differently. "Welcome to the 21st Century" meaning that's how photography has evolved and now the photographer is no long limited to the straight print, except in Photo journalism. I'm sorry if you thought I was bashing you LOL. Hey, anyone can critisize my photos all they want. I use critques and learn from them. I tried to write you directly, but when I click your name, no address comes-up...and I never expect to win these contest anyway and I'm not looking to boost my comment count either. Peace!

Weather you are against photographer using photoshop or not, we all have a right to participate in this competion. If you dont like photoshop being used then dont comment or vote for it, but dont try and force your ideas on other. We are not trying to force you to use photoshop.

First of all Bozzzzzz, or whomever; it's not my place to know the whole entire story on an image/photograph. I was encouraged to rate images through IFP3 so I am. As any artist would understand as well as it's what I see in my eye whether 21st Century or not, history or not; you should not have been so evasive in your way of commenting back to me as if you had an issue. It's not that serious to win the prize! It's all about presentation and the opinions of others for which we all have our own. I'm definately NOT a 6th grade teacher, and I'm truly an honest person but I would have never known the history on this image/picture of yours or anyone else's so in short, there's no reason to take offense when it's what I see when I rate and not what the story is behind it. I believe art is what you feel, and what you express that's real within and not things that are not. This is why I left my comments the way I did and sorry you obviously were offended. If I've misread you, then sorry in advance; but please ... don't be mean and it's not necessary to write back. Just wanted to reply back to you since you mentioned the 21st Century and it appeared you had an issue with my comments. It's really not worth it to write back and forth this way. We're suppose to be rating photographs! Have a good evening!

Sometimes the absence of something makes the photo more appealing. Plus as anyone that has taken photos of wildlife at play, sometimes it is had to catch everything when they are playing. Especially with big cats. In this photo I think this is true. When I look at this I am pulled to the contrasting stripes against the lighter colors and then the water droplets and finally the massive paw. All in all, a great photo and every photo great and the not so great will have people who either like or dislike it. Great job on this one!

Its good to see the bride putting the ball in the hole. Clever shot.

The motion blur really give this shot a true action feel to it and I like how she is positioned to the right and has room to run through the frame.

Oh good, you were on the ground. I was kinda thinking that you might be as crazy as she is, cuz she's definitely nutz. Great shot my friend!

Actually, this PHOTO has a story behind it. I am a 6th grade teacher and a couple years ago one of my students broke his neck attempting to do stunts like this on his BMX bicycle. He was bed ridden for many months and had to be home schooled. His mom contacted me and told me how depressed Jake was that he couldn't attend school. So I threw this shot together from shots I had taken the summer before at a BMX stunt demonstration. Then I got the whole class to sign the mat that I mounted the 16x20 print on and we all went over to Jake's house on a Saturday morning to give it to him and cheer him up. There was alot of crying and smiles. BTW...I didn't see any rule against using photoshop for this contest. These are all straight shots that have been copied and pasted into one. The bike riders were not manipulated in anyway other than resizing. I guess you might call it a collage. Hey, welcome to the 21st Century, Jen.

It would have been a better shot if the Tiger's face was showing. Fairly decent picture though; but the "face" is the key here.

I can tell it was computer animated pur se and it's not a realistic picture at all. Photoshop images should not be allowed honestly because it's not an actual picture being taken!
