It's absolutely stunning. But it represents 19 years, not just one season in Death Valley (no matter how rare) so it's got incredible variety. posted by: grateful1 (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (12:48 pm) The last link of the photographer site, is absolutely gouregous. I had to save the site i love it so much. posted by: Atronoch (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (12:58 pm) Wow... thats really pretty, it almost looks like that here but that way cooler posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (4:19 pm) Reply to: grateful1 Amazing isn't it? Did you read his description of how he started? Tiera Del Fuego. 19 years of dedication. Really puts things into perspective.... posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (4:19 pm) Reply to: Atronoch It's only cooler cause YOU'RE there! posted by: FinalyFree (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (7:01 pm) Beautiful pictures, great link too. Thanks :) posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (7:15 pm) Reply to: FinalyFree Thanks. Lindy made me think of the desert bloom in Death Valley and I looked it up. Then I stumbled on Richard Dickey's site. Unfortunate name, supremely talented and fortunate photographer!! posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.27.05 (7:50 pm) Reply to: altricial I was soooooo trying to hold my tongue about his name. Please, please, PLEASE tell me he does NOT go by Dick or Dickey. looooooool. I can't stand it! I recently played host to a National Security guy who's name is Dickie and I swear, I had the worst time keeping a straight face every time I said his name. And to make matters worse, his bio stated that he was a champion of amatuer competitive decoy duck carving tournaments... huh??? Okay, off topic, sorry. The pictures on the site are so exquisite that I am having a really hard time believing them to be photographs. He claims they are not color enhanced, but... my God! Just out of curiosity... I reminded you of the desert bloom in death valley... how? posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (2:29 am) Reply to: lindy He seems to go by Richard, bless his heart. The pictures are astonishing, true. But the most astonishing part is he dedicated his life to it and took every one. An Ansel Adams of his time and place. You must not have read your SS comments. I was particularly proud of that one. Do you use your bookmarks page? The comparison is valid. posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (8:10 am) Reply to: altricial heh heh... ummm.... *heads off to see Solaced... posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (8:30 am) Reply to: altricial And with good cause. Seriously, that was one of the most eloquent and vivid comments I have ever read from you. I am all flattered now. :) *gush gush gush... posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (8:49 am) Reply to: lindy You had me until "from you". ;oD posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (10:23 am) Reply to: altricial Ach Mensch! Was sol das?! Hab ich etwas nett gesagt und...... arrrrrg! heh. 'from you' I got an arsenal sitting behind me in reference to that... heh. posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (10:47 am) Reply to: lindy Oh humans! Which sol that?! I somewhat nicely said and....arrrrrg! As usual, my babel fish is only mildly useful.... posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.28.05 (2:19 pm) Reply to: altricial loooooooooooooooooooool hahahaha! ALT! I SOOOOOOOO KNEW you were going to do that, but I didn't think you'd actually *post* it. LOL 'Oh man! What *is this?! I say something nice and.... arrrrrrg!' looool posted by: altricial (reply) post date: 03.29.05 (7:47 am) Reply to: lindy I like "I 'somewhat' nicely said..." better. I think the original compliment was one of the nicest I've ever received from you. grinning mischieviously, ~Alt posted by: lindy (reply) post date: 03.29.05 (10:19 am) Reply to: altricial *waggles finger at dear friend.... posted by: Atronoch (reply) post date: 03.30.05 (1:18 pm) Reply to: altricial nah Death Valley would be way sweeter than Montana if it looked that way all the time. |
