Re: January PUG is Up - Welcome to 2012!
Thanks, Brian, but boy, what a great gallery. Very tough to pick a favorite. When I first looked at Brian's helicopter, I thought it was a toy model, but then when I read the caption, I learned I was only wrong. :-) Big congrats everyone! Your photography is great.

Well first of all, Brian, thanks for putting all this together. Great job as always. I agree with your assessments (mine excepted, of course). Joe and Dag's were outstanding examples of the genre, but I have to give a slight nod to Dag's as my fave.

Re: January PUG is Up - Welcome to 2012!
That is a great gallery: a lot of fun, and some very interesting and provocative images. My Personal favorite is Bong's Earth and Sky, even though the title took a while to sink in. It is visually stunning, and quite minimal. I like Frank's entry for the humor; he is always challenging us. Then, of course, is the Open entry, with not one but three lovely cormorants, the Official Birds of the PDML. A diverse and wonderful gallery. Thanks again for all your work in putting it all together for us, Brian.

Re: January PUG is Up - Welcome to 2012!
Definitely a good one. I especially like that there a number of fresh faces represented. I really like Daniele Bernardi's house and Pat Temmerman's watering cans. Although, Pat if you're listening, I think you could have cropped even tighter to remove the traces of background and reduce it to just curves and surface textures.
