Description
Must take a break in the landscape images to let you know that I've finally reached my 500th upload after being with the Renderosity community since January of 2003. As always comments are very much appreciated.
This is a photo of my daughter, Megan. She just turned 14 and is a blast during a photo shoot. She asked me to take a few pics for her facebook page. She is holding our new puppy, Mickey.
Thank you all for a wonderful experience.
Jodie

Congrats...this is a wonderful choice for this milestone in your career at Renderosity
Wow, congratulations on your 500th post. Thank you for sharing so many images with us. It looks like you're sharing another amazing work of art with us, your daughter is beautiful and you must be so proud. Looking forward to your next 500 pictures!
Great work Jodie, your work has always inspired me. You have a gallery full of warmth and class and beauty. And I am sure your daughter must have been happy with the results you got of her in this photo, it shows all the qualities of your photography, and she is a beautiful girl. All, the best my friend.
Congrats on a superb 500th upload with outstanding postwork.
Rendo is a career?...wow, where's my sallery LOL...Great shot of your pretty daughter, and many contrasts on the half thousand
It's a wonderful shot of Megan, Jodie—and Mickey!—and a great way to celebrate your 500th. Megan is smiling but wholly natural (something you capture so well from all your portraiture experience); and the b&w brings out her smile & her kind nature in a way that color couldn't top; and the music of the shot is simple & just plain fine portraiture (ie, the sweep from her hair to her arm & into Mickey). And Mickey is placed so nicely & naturally. A very simple but wholly sensitive job. And kudos to Megan to let you post this in front of the world. And kudos to Piet, too, for the beautiful thumbnail—I wanna see it full size!!! You have to know, you still do things with natural light & shadow, natural contrasts, natural blends & atmosphere that distinguish you as one of the subtlest & most sensitive camera artists here. And I've always found your composition to be unerring, your way with action shots to be unreal (I still can't believe some of those theater or sports shots where it looks as if heaven literally stopped time for you, the clarity was so fine), your sense of the 'scene'—ie. knowing which pov captures the essence of the place—to be equally unerring, and I've always found your light to be deep & heartful & beautiful. Those spills of light in the distance, what you do with mists & fogs, your sense of glow inside objects, doors, walls, etc, are just beautiful. I could go on...but this is a great gallery & I'm one of your biggest fans & I hope you post another 2 million. It's great that you posted a picture of one of your beloved children to celebrate this. Congratulations! This was one of my first galleries & it still remains one of my favorites. I wish you many, many more, dear friend!
It's hard to follow Mark, so I won't even try to be literate since it will fall short by comparison. Congratulations Jodie! A great choice for your celebratory post, it's a portrait for you (and her!) to be proud of.
Fabulous! Congratulations.
