On another comment I’ve written on your blog I said that photography is all bout making pictures not rework them on photoshop. I must say that it is not entirely truth. Sometimes photoshop could add something to existing picture, something incredible. Properly used effects can make a picture better, but sometimes they just destroy great artistic work of basic picture. That is what I ment.

Ok, sorry about the double post there, it’s confusing when you press ‘post comment’ and your comment just disappears into thin air

@esseme, Thank you Serge for your continuous support. I really appreciate what you did and still doing for both adidap and myself.

I didn’t feel the need to justify I just thought that that anonymous had the courage to put a comment although he didn’t leave his real email but maybe a lot of others are wondering why do I feature that picture and not that one without ever dropping a comment. So I thought it would be better to clarify it.

Thanks again

Antoine,
I don’t understand why you are justifying yourself to this anonymous Jealous commentator that doesn’t have the courage to put his/her right email/name in the comment.

I don’t believe that you insinuated on this Website that everyone gets to choose what gets picked. This is YOUR website and we are welcome to join it and play by YOUR rules.
I think what you did – explain yourself and your voting process to this idiot – is very noble and nice from your part. I do not think it was necessary though.

I take photograph to have fun and learn, and ADIDAP and others have taught me a lot. Just going through your photo selection every round gets me to think more about how to shoot this and that and inspire me to do better.
in addition, the exposure to other very talented photographers is a great way to get more connected and improve.

So, don’t justify yourself. If they don’t like ADIDAP they can go somewhere else.
Don’t change and keep doing what you’re doing.
Cheers
Serge

I for one have found your choices to be refreshing. Unlike Flickr explore, which up until recent was only attainable if you were a scantily clad women doing revealing self-portraits, I find your choices to be emotional and fresh. I have benefited by being chosen several times, although none of mine have been chosen with a majority of votes. I find your choices refreshing because they encourage me to think beyond the “bubble-gum” eye-candy stuff so often presented as art on Flickr. Your choices inspire me to see the world in new and creative ways….and I’m a better photographer because of it.
Jack
