I had a look and especially like the misc folder and the floral. More specific : The sax, the chessboard, the rose. High quality.

I don't like the initial dark thumbnails which get lighter as you move the mouse over them. I think they are too dark.

Very nice work. Overall I like the layout of the website, looks elegant and easy to navigate, easy to get a feel for the pictures. I think the photos are well crafted, focus, light, and composition is particularly creative.

My favorites are the cat (not clean just cat spit) the way the face fills the frame, and blurs toward the edges. I think this is how cats would like us to see them - the world is centered on them, they fill our view, and are the focus of our existence. Those eyes are entrancing.

I also really like the b&w of the base of the rose bud - incredible detail, lovely range of grays, unique composition (not including the whole bud, but studying the connection between stem and flower)

Post some of these on DPC prints! or at least in a portfolio so more pople will see them!

Good luck, and keeep up the good work.

Great work all the way around :-)

Photos are excellent, layout is also very good. I like the mouseover effect but i think that the images are too dark also.

You have a strong eye for design - I really like the design of your site and many of the images too. I agree that the thumbnails are too dark, though you've already noted that, I also find them a touch too close together.

Thanks for sharing your work!

Not quite what I expected after reading the URL ;-)

Seriously...

Maybe there is one and I have completely missed it but I canâ��t find a link from an image back to the gallery I came from.

For example if I am on this page //www.digitalfetish.net/10sax.html there is no link taking me back to the Misc gallery.

miah you crack me up, i dont think that was the response they were trying to go for in that pic..lol. they are actually a local goth band. it was my first "photo shoot" for someone. it was pretty neat. of course i was nervous and had no pose ideas, but they had all that taken care of.

the frontman reminds me of 'the crow'... speaking of the movie, apparantly (so someone has told me) its common knowledge that brandon lee (the crow) was the son of bruce lee (master and creator of jeet kun do.. heh) and that he died during the making of the movie much the same way his father died some many years earlier. apparantly it was during a gun scene and one of the guns was loaded with real bullets instead of blanks.. does anyone know if this is true?

here was probably not to place the post, but it'd be swell if someone could confirm/disprove this rumor.

Bruce Lee was Brandon Lee's father, but Bruce was murdered and it was never solved.
Brandon did die during the filming of "The Crow", but it was a blank that killed him - the scene where he's on the conference room table and everyone's shooting at him. Apparently, the wadding or some part of a blank round can act as a lethal projectile, and that's what did him in.
I'm not a Lee family groupie or anything, but this is true to the best of my knowledge.
