>From Websters On-Line: One entry found for juxtaposition. Main Entry: jux?ta?po?si?tion Pronunciation: "j&k-st&-p&-'zi-sh&n Function: noun Etymology: Latin juxta near + English position -- more at JOUST Date: 1654 : the act or an instance of placing two or more things side by side; also : the state of being so placed - jux?ta?po?si?tion?al /-'zish-n&l, -'zi-sh&-n&l/ adjective So the answer to the PUG is that it is a photograph with two or more things side by side. You should stretch the theme to it's limit. It makes for an interesting gallery.... I've submitted something. Should be interesting to see how other people interpret the Gallery (Thanks Bill!).
