Thank you for the compliment, as you see somebody is giving me a bad rating on a lot of my photos. I wish they would stop abusing the rating, a fair rating will help me know really where I stand in my picture taking.

Thank you for your appreciation.

Much obliged, especially when I get a compliment from good photographers.

When I don't have much subjects to photograph, I turn into Macro photography. It is not my favorite subject.

You are right, as much as I like portrait photography, I need to work more on it, especially lighting.

Good opinion, will try to emphasize such things in the future. If you tell a person to psoe, he becomes stiff; this is why I try to steal the shots.
