Unfortunately I've spent more time blocking perverts, thieves and malicious idiots than I've spent looking at the wonderful images most of you are sharing. So for those of you who have nothing better to do with your time than fit into one of those three categories, may I draw your attention to the warning in my profile.

(I do not quite...agree with the Dalai Lama on that point, which is a matter of philosophical debate - the shot is above any debate)

Sorry about the weirdos, its all too common on Flickr I'm afraid, I think they should stop allowing free accounts, think that would go along way to getting rid of these idiots.
Great shot btw

what a gorgeous portrait this is. such fantastic light, and i love the natural expression you have captured on her face. beautiful in all regards.
and yes, there is no shortage of freak shows on flickr, as anywhere else in the world. i've had to block more people that i'd care to count, but am still grateful for this forum. hopefully you will not be pestered by these people any further!!

I love the treatment you've applied here ~ the tones are perfect. What a lovely portrait, and a sweet, very thoughtful looking smile.

Such a lovely smile. Ella is a very pretty young woman and obviously very creative and talented from the work I have seen. I love the hint of color in this treatment. So lovely.

This is such a pretty, affectionate portrait!
Sorry to hear you've been having weirdo trouble, i think i've lucked out in pretty much dodging all that so far. Stick with it though, the kind and lovely people outweigh the nutters :-)
