One of yours, one of mine, August 28, 2024

Go forth and leave comments!

Steve's suggestions on how to leave a good comment...

  1. Tell the artist what caught your eye, something your particularly liked or didn't like.

  2. Tell the artist something you think they could have done differently or better.

  3. Suggest an alternate title; it tells the artist what you saw in the image.

  4. Interact with the artwork, continue its story.

  5. Ask the artist how or why they did something.

  6. If nothing else, even "Ooh, pretty!" or "Oh, ick!" is a lot more information than no comment at all.

Enjoy!

Welcome to Pearwood's Page!

Steven Tryon, Christian, photographer, writer and walker


I am a Christian, photographer, writer and walker,  living in Rochester, NY. Once upon a time I was an Army helicopter  jockey in Alaska. A theologically-educated geek. He/him. Supports gay/lesbian/trans/whatever folks.

I started with film, switched to digital, then went back to classic film cameras.


I hang out in a variety of places. 


I will always remember…

  • I will always remember that I am one finite human being, with assorted weaknesses, and that’s ok.

  • I will always remember that I will not live forever on this earth, and that’s ok, too.

  • I will always remember that Jesus loves me, and that is enough.


So what catches my eye? An eye to see beauty in the unusual or, even  more, in the ordinary things of life. A portrait that reveals something  unique or special of the one portrayed — or of the artist  (self-portraits in particular fascinate me), or of joy, grief, and hope  of life. A gaze into the eyes of the one gazing at the artist. The sheer  joy of creation. A delight in the ridiculous that resides in all of us.  Gracefulness of form and motion.

Life is a photo op. Take the camera.

Hi ! Thank you for the badge !!

Thank you for the badge :hug:.

It had been a beautiful day. The city public transport manager, on a holiday, had opened his workshops to anyone who wanted to visit them and I took advantage of the opportunity to take some photographs, including this one.

Thank you for the badge Steve. :hug:

Thanks a lot for faving and quartz badge!

:wave: Dear friend,

are you okay? Is everything ok in your family? I hope that your lesser presence is due to the fact that you and your family are on vacation without problems.

Good luck:hug:

We are all quite well, thank you! My recovery from my full hip replacement not quite five weeks ago is going well, but I have not been out with the camera. The past several days I have been quite fatigued, due, I think, to having just weaned myself of the oxycodone. Nasty stuff, that. I am feeling better each day. I got out for a good walk around the neighborhood yesterday.

Sorry if I was intrusive, I didn't mean to be curious :no: but I was surprised by the slowdown of your irreplaceable presence on DA. I hope you solve your health problems very soon, so you can delight all of us with your images and your wonderful comments.:hug:
