[QUOTE="Dangerspouse, post: 785417, member: 46690"] First, of course, my best wishes to your wife for a rapid and full recovery. Being a caretaker isn't easy, and I give you a lot of credit for doing your part without complaint. Good luck to you both. I have to admit I'm not a fan of the Photographic Eye channel. I've seen a number of his installments and while his technical advice seems sound, his personal style comes across as sanctimonious to me, which I find off-putting. I'm more of a Gavin Hoey fan. His "15 minute photo challenge" series was something I got hooked on when I was recovering from my own surgery, and fairly immobile for a while. But all his instructional videos are concise and combined with an engaging delivery, a combination that really resonates with me. But to each their own, of course. I've you prefer PE's style, more power to you. As far as your photos, I think it's great that you're looking with a photographic eye at otherwise mundane things and trying to make the best pics you can. And those three examples are certainly mundane. Good job! (I personally prefer the color version of the textured tile, but both are very good.) Do you have a macro lens? Mine got a lot of use during my convalescence. It was fun making interesting pictures of very, very tiny details. If you have one, I highly recommend it as a worthwhile time suck :) And again, all the best. [/QUOTE]
