I love to listen to the harp when played well, but have yet to see a harpist really relaxing when playing. they take concentration and effort, two traits hardly associated with relaxation. Reply »

i know the harpist personally, he is the most relaxed & calm person I ever met-he has been playing all of his life, it just comes naturally for him. Reply »

i feel the term relaxation does not necessarily mean absence of all activity...a person doing something that he/she truly loves doing is i guess the best form of relaxation....if lying down and falling asleep were the only means of relaxation available many of us would have just been snoozing rather than taking photographs!! what say?

Was this an image you had online and resized? Just wondering because it looks a little pixelated in high res. But definitely an on theme entry. GL! Reply »

LOL THIS IS SO ME!!! Reply »

Looks like she's taking a break from the havic of getting ready and the awwww from the cig is sooo relaxing! (I plan to quit after the honeymoon but I know the feeling of this picture oh so well!) Reply »

I think only smokers can relate! T hank's for the comment! This is so ME TOO!!!! Reply »

Smokers don't look quite as relaxed when they're hooked up to their oxygen for the first time.

A bit of noise Reply »

Its called film! Reply »

There are lots of shots taken on film that don't show grain. There are crystal clear shots taken on film. Sometimes grain adds to a shot, but certainly not always Reply »

I happen to like it,especially for portraits!! Reply »

I'm normally the noise Nazi .... however I like this one! Reply »

I agree the noise is fine good luck Author and it is nice to see that someone still uses film.
Makes me want to break out my canon eos 650 again> Reply »

Great angle on this one. Your bnw's are awesome! :0 Reply »

nice Reply »

VERY NICE!!! Love the slow water effect. Reply »

I think it's a nice shot. I like the fact that she's smaller and a little more subtle Reply »

Thanks at first I was thinking of ways to crop, to make her appear larger, but If I lost any of that water effect it would have defeated the "relaxation" effect. Reply »

This shot is awesome! Wow! (and yet no noise ) GL! Reply »
