There's nothing in the guidelines that says submissions have to be good... Anyway - if it's taken with a Pentax it has to be good by definition. Doesn't it?

Re: July Extra PUG - Open Gallery - is UP
Thanks, Brian. Excellent stuff. There certainly are many talented photographers in the group. Bob's looking for a mate immediately caught my eye too.

Re: July Extra PUG - Open Gallery - is UP
Really enjoyed this whole gallery, which I think is one of the best I have seen since becoming familiar with the PUG. (I promise I will have entries again. one day soon.) There were really just too many, one could say things about all of them. My fav would have to be Brian Walter's postcard perfect The Struggle, with Dario's How It Was and Rick Wormer's Playing at the edge of the Sand. All just gorgeous. I loved the technical perfection of AnnSan's Soho Shadows (which would also make a lovely cyanotype print, IMHO) along with Bob Sullivan's Looking for a Mate and Patrick Temmerman's Morning Fog. I would also be happy to claim Zos' Random Butterfly and Gerrit Visser's Done Fishing as my own. Special mention goes to Calvary by Matthew Hunt for capturing FOUR crosses (I only saw three on my first viewing, but then I've always been a bit slow). Well done. And whether it was purposeful or not, the placing of Jorge Zaven Kurkdjian's lovely Yerevan immediately after Calvary made me see three crosses in his image, as well.

Re: PUG open
Hi, Lucas. Thanks for the comments. My original intent was to show the uselessness of the U.S. penny. I find them to be a nuisance, as quite a few others do as well. I usually end up with a pocketful of them, the kid behind the counter always gives me dirty looks when I'm counting them out, and my wife bugs me about leaving little piles of them around the house. However, there were a few unintended elements to the photo which you have pointed out. All of which can obviously impart certain opinions of uselessness. As far as composition goes, I basically took the change out of my pocket, removed everything except the pennies, and then slapped them down a piece of paper. I took about ten or twelve photos from different angles and selected this one for the PUG. Thanks again. Much appreciated.

Re: PUG open
On 1/11/05, Adelheid v. K., discombobulated, unleashed: The November PUG is available on my website AND on the komkon server. http://www.kirschten.de/PUG/05nov and http://pug.komkon.org Cheers Adelheid Thanks Addy - your hard work is appreciated many times over. Just had a look through, and a great gallery for sure. Some lovely pics in there. Two that caught my eye for totally different reasons. Anne's 'Bad Rack' - totally captures the 'Useless' theme for me - and adds humour and what a lovely frame! Perfect Anne - you are right on the nose with this, well done! Also, Marnie's poignant photo of her mother, in 'Untitled'. In another guise, this pic would be technically passe, with direct flash straight onto the face. In this instance it seems appropriate, and even preferable. It concentrates the gaze right where it needs to be, and then concentrates the mind on the harsh reality that can grip us all. I find this picture both disturbing and refreshing in equal measures. I find it thoughtful and yet frivolous - evoking a set of emotions that sit uneasily. That it is included in the 'Useless' gallery is both a tribute and a wake-up call. I think this pic is amongst the finest documentary photography that it is possible to make, and for the photographer, probably the hardest. I take my hat off to you Marnie - it's not a fine family snap that your mother would have been proud of in her better days but it is an excellent photograph in its own right, and if you are brave enough, one that you can rightly be proud of. Well done kid. Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=|http://www.cottysnaps.com _

Re: PUG open
Hi all, Time to bite the bullet, and write some comments. I decided to comment on every photo, which turned out not to be the wisest course of action. At some point, 'nice' somehow starts to sound derisive, and repetition sets in. I'd like to point out that is not intended. So: -- Janne: Very nice shot. Trevor: Cool: It looks like they went out with a bang :o) John: Great find, and well captured. The pun is unintended, I hope? Boris: I like the clashing colors and the composition. If they were put there intentionally, it would have been art... Rob: Cool thing. As you say, the size is hard to gauge, even if pointed out. I 'know' the size, but I don't 'see' it, if you know what I mean. Ann: I don't play scabble, and this is one of the reasons why ;-) Fits the theme nicely... Matjaž: That's insane! Thanks for showing. Joseph: I like the depth in the image, and your explanation (though I suspect that was not why you took the pic ;-) Somehow, the castle still rules over it's surroundings... Harald: I like the shape of the barn, and I really love how the colors of this picture pull the background and foreground together, while the trees still seperate them. It gives a 'unified' look without loosing depth. Tom: Wonderfull shot, great colors. I somehow miss the uselessness on this one. Marnie: I 'like' her gaze. It would have told the story without your explanation. That's quite a feat to accomplish. It's a pity about the popup flash though :/ Tony: grin I think _he_ finds the remote quite usefull ;-) Dan: Initially the bow of the ship disturbed me, but without it it would be too much of a postcard. And the fountain repeating the flag is nice (or am I seeing things?). I'm undecided... Martin: Nice picture. I don't agree with the 'momentarily useless', though. It's great fun to be on a ship that falls dry (-that was a literal translation from Dutch, I hope you get my meaning) Bruce: Nice picture. My only criticism would be that you can't see that it's rebuilt and not working in the photo... Kenneth: I really like this one. It makes me think of René Magritte's citizens, which can't be a bad thing. Scott: Hmmm, is small change useless? Money in general? Or even 'liberty'? And who on earth has the audacity to put '1984' and 'liberty' on the same coin? If all of the above is intentional _really_ like the shot. I only wonder if I would have looked so hard if I were not commenting... Dag: Wow, that's minimalism with a capital M. I learned that one should leave out unneccessery elements, but you take that to the extreme. And it still tells several stories... Wow again! Tim: Nice shot. Gianfranco: That is brutal. Well composed, and more shocking than a picture of a real killed animal. The power of the imagination... Pancho: glup Tough to camment after that last remark... I'm a bit undecided on this one: it's neither pleasing nor shocking. It might have been better if the wasp was clearer, but I can imagine that a closup would have been hard to get... As you write, if anything it raises some good questions ;) Raimo: You certainly nicely captured the velvet. I'm not sure about it's uselessness: it isn't in a museum for nothing? Markus: Great composition and colors; a lovely picture, and a story to match! Robert: Nice. To answer the question: I think so :o) Jens: very big grin I've got some like that! I can definitely indentify with the sentiment... Collin: I like it a lot, you capture the atmosphere of the place very well. Lucas: Oh no, I talk to myself too much as it is... Rick: Nice shot. John: Cool! E.R.N. Reed: grin Luben: I've seen this one before, I think. I liked it then, and I still like it now. Very threathening atmosphere. You can almost hear the wind building up. Steve: _Very_ well done (and running trains are not that easy, I tried...)! Paolo: Looks very nice. I'd like to see a bigger version of this one (or did I miss a PESO?). I don't think a picture this small does it justice. For what it's worth, -- Regards, Lucas

Just had a look through, and a great gallery for sure. Some lovely pics in there. Two that caught my eye for totally different reasons. Anne's 'Bad Rack' - totally captures the 'Useless' theme for me - and adds humour and what a lovely frame! Perfect Anne - you are right on the nose with this, well done! Cotty, thanks so much! now lop that e off the end of my name... :) Just remember I'm not a flower and was never a queen (I'm ducking, I'm ducking) Also, Marnie's poignant photo of her mother, in 'Untitled'. Cheers, Cotty Marnie's shot really got to me - in the gut - very strong stuff... ann

Re: PUG open
Thanks to Cotty, Ann, Boris and frank for your comments. Yeah, I am back onlist (sort of). keith, my email address is the same as the one here. Still pretty busy but closer to being really back. I don't like being onlist without looking at other people's photos and making comments now and then. But, as you know, that takes a A LOT of time. But I am closer to feeling like I made some progress on my project that took me off list. Although I will probably still be fairly quiet for another week or so. I won't be finished then, but if I am far enough along with my project, I won't feel too distracted by the list (reading and writing to the list was becoming a great way to procrastinate). So I'd really like to make comments on this month's PUG, other people's pics, give my own feedback... but just don't have the time right now. Maybe in a week or two, belated, but better than nothing I guess. Did have to acknowledge what people said though (Cotty sent me his off-list which reminded me the PUG opened). Thanks! And thanks again. I almost didn't submit it, but glad I did. Well, because, it's not a flattering photo of Mom. She's very vulnerable and all that -- sort of exposed. But I figured maybe someone would get something out of it. She went through several weeks of feeling useless recently, it happens periodically, but she does sing and feel happy now and then too. Just to balance out the picture. :-) So, glad you did get something out of it, because, well, because it felt sort of risky to show it. Note: The Optio has a very small viewfinder and a small LCD and would not be my first choice for doing a portrait, but it let me enter the PUG again. I shot about 20-25 and that one captured best what I was going for. When I saw November's theme it just sort of shouted at me. The photo was actually manipulated to make her face whiter and the background darker, to increase the bad flash effect (which was there already somewhat). I felt it gave it more punch. More reality or something somehow. Evidentially, I was right. :-) Thanks so much for the comments. They mean a lot. Later, Marnie aka Doe
Re: PUG open
Oh, and Boris, your comment too, didn't mean to leave you out. :-) I think it's easier for me to take pictures of people I know. Especially a subject I know so well. Later, Marnie :-)
Unoffical Feb PUG open ??
http://www.kirschten.de/PUG/05feb/ I've not seen any messages about this month's PUG but it appears that the unofficial one is open. Great shots as always. -- Fred Widall, Email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.ist.uwaterloo.ca/~fwwidall --
