I've finally gotten thru the October PUG and have the following comments. This one was exceptionally good.
" Air & Water - Durham " by David Dixon, UK It seems all-sky shots don't garner much attention (as my Red Sky at Dawn) but I like them nevertheless. They contain lots of variation in light and nice textures. Good shot with an ethereal feeling. " Coming... " by Edward Kreis, Latvia Great shot with a lovely balance too it, and certainly a sense of foreboding. I want to say more but can't think of the words. I think the perspective of the lamps leading one off to the horizon is great. " Sun and Fog, Big Sur " by Dick Jones, USA Nice composition. I wish there was a little more detail in the foreground cliff, but I'm sure it was difficult lighting. Impressive. " Diamond " by Steve Larson, USA That's beautiful Steve. Wins the "Abstraction Award" for the month. " Hell's Engine " by Paul Stenquist, USA I don't know what you did to accomplish this, but I love it. I can see that there's an engine and the flames. What are the white globes? " Dune du Pilat " by Jaume Lahuerta, Spain Jaume, what a beautiful shot and composition. It's hard to find the words. " Manchac Pushboat " by Kevin Thornsberry, USA Great sky, nice silhouette. Quite beautiful. " Water Power " by John Coyle, Australia Yep - this image conveys RAW POWER. Good job. " Ions... " by Michel Adam, Canada It's amazing. Good use of the wide-angle. Cool, cool, cool. Chances for aurora tonight, but it's started clouding up here. " Volcano " by Mark Dalal, USA OK Mark. I haven't been paying much attention to the other comments. I like it. What the heck is it? I've got some guesses but don't want to look stupider than normal. Nice effect on your signature., BTW. " Water Colours " by Hans-Bernhard Beykirch, Germany Very nice abstract. " Something Fishy " by Leon Altoff, Australia Quite comical and interesting. It reminds me of the aquarium in Clearwater, Florida where the stingrays cruise by the edge of the tank and raise a fintip out of the water and wave at you to get your attention or be petted. " White Sands After Rain " by Ann Sanfedele, USA I like it Ann. It has a serene quality about it. I also like that it's not what it appears to be. Good catch. " Delaware Water Gap Fall Foliage Reflections " by Richard Seaman, New Zealand/USA My favorite of the month. It took my breath away when I first saw it, and still does!
