Deviation Actions
I just got a note from my friend to thank me for suggesting his first DD. I'm walking around with a big grin, because I've been suggesting DDs for years (although infrequently) without getting them honoured, and now, with wiebestavast's DD (see previous journal ericforfriends.deviantart.com/… ), there have been two acknowledged that I submitted on the same day.
I think you'll miss out on something if you don't have at least a look at Stefano's "3D-Fractals at an Exhibition" doublecrash.deviantart.com/art… .
It has a warm, natural light that I really like, and what's even better, it's a collaboration between two different artists and two different artforms that has nothing contrived and that benefits both sides.
This is Doublecrash (and Kundry):
He's an photographer as well as a 3D-artist, showing the beauties of Italy and his surroundings in his work. It's worthwhile to delve in his sub-collections, there are great works in there that you won't see at once in his general gallery. Apart from the obvious visual qualities, that speak for themselves, he has a sense of humour that I love. This is a quick choice from his work:
The fractal artist showing her work in the gallery, a longtime friend of Doublecrash is
tresamie
I think her work deserves love too! It's both beautiful and evocative.
Abundantia - Daily Deviation
Just yesterday I arrived back from vacation, and at the first day at my desk, I discovered that my picture 'Abundantia' has become today's Daily Deviation for the Street gallery, courtesy of myraincheck (https://www.deviantart.com/myraincheck), who is one of the true treasures of the site. Thank you so much, Mary!
I don't want to heap praise on my own work, but let me just say that for me, the picture and the praise that it got represents the experience that can makes Street photography special to the photographer himself or herself. You milk many cows to get the cheese, in the words of HCB, you wear out your best shoes for years, you try to be as clever and adroit as possible
Some good journal-ists
As most of you know, I haven't written a journal in a while. I'm writing this using the new beta of the journal editor, and if you haven't got access to beta features yet, I can tell you you will like it. Pretty close to WYSIWYG (which is something I've always asked for) and great access to the art that you might want to feature. And as we're talking about journals, these people write good ones:
`scheinbar (https://www.deviantart.com/scheinbar)scheinbar (https://www.deviantart.com/scheinbar)
Absolutely top of the bill. Sometimes I feel that you could limit yourself to watching everything in Scheinbar's journals, and not miss too much. A dA on Scheinbar-level would probably be a whole lot more relevant to the

Hello all! ~eeeeeplz (https://www.deviantart.com/eeeeeplz)
It's been a while, but here I am again. I'm not giving up on dA, and especially not on the wonderful people, but there's a whole wonderful world outside it, and it's been taking some of my attention.
New guidebook
This week I got notice from my publisher that the next edition of my Malta guidebook (sorry, Dutch only) is at the printer's. It's the first edition since I went digital and got more serious into photography, so I'm quite excited about it. We were in Malta last year for a short period and we had a great time there, as always. In case you don't know Malta, it's great for all kinds of photography - Street,

Hello everybody! :woohoo:
Four Cantos - thanks and postage issue

Firstly, I'd like thank everybody who ~fbLikePlz (https://www.deviantart.com/fblikeplz)'ed the book or gave it a nice comment one way or another. Through Facebook weirdness I haven't been able to see who actually liked or commented it in all cases, but that book is my baby, and I appreciate your praise and approval very much. Thank you so much! :hug:
Courtesy of some kind friends I found out that there is a weird problem with the postage of my Tuscany photobook. It's fine if you live in the USA or Canada and where I live I can get a few books delivered for something like 6 euros - the Europ

Thanks so much! Stefano and I have been wanting to do this for ages. If you look at some of his older 3D images, you might just find one of my fractals on the wall, lol. It was wonderful to see this become a 'virtual reality' and his modeling and design really shines! Congratulations Stefano!
