  "Arubow4, In all of your photographs I get the sense of deep concentration given towards a classical sense of balance to quietly present your personal goal and understanding of "The Aesthetic" within your chosen medium of photography. A sense of Love, Fun and Humor also bubble through unabashedly. You make it look easy just as a good actor makes you forget that he or she is a star identity. The serious artist's ultimate goal is never reached. The Struggle is a good thing in this case. Otherwise stagnation and a crippling pride would take hold.
  Arubow4's collection of captures all say Avante! - Forward ho!
  One point and a tip I realized from your photographs:
  It is easy for too many digital photographers, now "free" from the burden of the expense of film utilize the shotgun approach to their sessions with their multi-thousand dollar camera kits:
  Take a many dozens of shots and then glean the good ones out of the myriad of various exposures and off-kilter snapshots that need to be cropped to death.
  I am not talking about planned bracketing here, which is fine.
  All of you, ask yourselves: When was the last time you took a photograph as if it were your last frame left on the roll and you were out of film? That is what you do to become better than you were yesterday. Stop, Look and Listen to what arubow4's photographs are saying to you. To me one of his park photographs said, "Peace, harmony, balance, quiet, nature, calm waters and renewal." I am of course short the remaining nine hundred and ninety three words left.
  One more: Excelsior!"
