Great gallery, everyone. Thoroughly enjoyable. And Cotty, thanks for the detailed comments. Your comments are almost as enjoyable as the photos.

Unsubscribe quick. These guys talk about tea/coffee, beer, bicycles, motorcycles, and cars. And they crack bad puns all the time. (Unless things have changed.) Oh, occasionally, in between these topics and the standard gear talk, they MAY talk about photography, but I wouldn't count on it. HTH, Marnie (aka Doe) In a message dated 4/5/2017 8:13:16 P.M.

As usual you'll find the gallery here: http://pug.komkon.org/ Just had a sit down and spent an hour going through the PUG with the Mrs. Fantastic selection of images, some I recall seeing previously over the years, others never seen before. Really enjoyable and sometimes quite poignant viewing: the images submitted on behalf of those friends who have left us, really was quite touching. Lovely idea. I could just say that the whole gallery was great and you should all be proud and leave it at that.but I simply can't. There are some really standout images that I can't resist mentioning, and some others that merit a word or two, a couple that raised an eyebrow, a few that made me gasp, the odd meh, several award winners and one that inspired anger! In fact I had to explain that the pics weren't just submitted because the photographer thought his or her image was great, but because it was an image that meant something within their time on the PDML. There is history in these images, not just the obvious, but the history of the photographer, their own journeys and experiences. For instance, I chose my image not because it is a good image - it's really only so-so. But it means a huge amount: it was taken with classic Pentax film equipment, the subject is so dear to my heart, and it reminds me of happy days watching my son grow up, warm summer days in the countryside, discovering the PDML, and a zillion other things. So really, they can't be 'rated' as perhaps in a normal PUG. That said, These things are *always* subjective and me and the Mrs disagreed on several pics - she would 'oh wow' herself silly while the same photo rated a mere 'meh' from me. But this is my email so she can go fish. My standouts: A Pug for the PUG by Mike Wacht - because who doesn't like a really good shot of a dawg. Grandfather Mountain by Bill Owens - that classic view that makes my heart skip a beat. RIP Bill. Gospel by Bruno Macedo - Long exposure producing stunning result, just a lovely image. Bruno, if you're lurking and reading this, be proud. I love it. Old Window by Simon Williams - my wife loved this. Meh. Good pic tho. Nephews by Derby Chang - Derbs, this is supreme. Fantastic image, love everything about it. Sheer brilliance mate. Light a cigar. Sunset at Grandfather Mountain by Ted Beilby - Ted I've never seen this before! Touching moment with my lad, made me well up! The River by Brian Walters - Mrs cooed and aaahed. It's misty water FFS, get over it. Nicely done though. A Winter Afternoon by Vladimir Koukal - Vlad old boy, break out the vodka, I likes a bit a symmetry when I can gets it. Lovely stuff! Claudia - My First Photo by Krzysztof - WOW. Striking and made me look a long time. GREAT work mate, must be a photo-god what with one name like Brassai, Ctein, Cotty (har!) Leading Lady by Bruce Walker - yep seen it before, dreamy bokeh, great shot, etc etc, was expecting some nice legs or something. See teacher. My Girls by Paul Stenquist - not seen this one before, lovely playful shot, against the window too but nailed it. Mount Lagorce by Ken Waller - WOW OH WOW. Breathtaking. Fog in Hawk Wood by Malcolm Smith - LOVE THIS MALC - that is sublime. You should be doing serious landscape work. That's a winner mate. Descent by Subash Jeyan - holy mackerel Subers - this is such an amazing photograph, about the BEST pic in the gallery. Love it completely and utterly. Find myself keep having to look at it again. That is fantastic. Can't tell you enough. I'm giving up photography and going to see out my days as a capybara. Happy New Year by Matt Burt - the Mrs and I agreed on this one, stunning colours and atmosphere. Hats off that you worked hard to get it. Le Disque Bleu by Rick Womer - GREAT shot Rick - real strong atmosphere what with the colours and the ghostly figures, real sense of place. Love it. The Gathering by Jay Taylor - There's no great overriding reason why this pic works so well. LOVE the space around the group huddled together on the spot surrounded by all this space. Lovely vibrant colours and a real fun pic. Super! On the Brown Line, Chicago by Christine Aguilamonster - I've said this before and I'll say it again. Robert Frank would have been proud to snap that.

Re: 20th Anniversary PUG is Up!
That's a fine gallery indeed - every image is engaging and it was great to see some photos from former members. Thanks for putting this together (as all those other PUG's as well)!

Re: 20th Anniversary PUG is Up!
Cotty - Really enjoyed reading your review of the 20th Anniversary PUG. Thanks for the kind words about "Pure Joy". The subjects are our grandson and his father, so, like the image you submitted, there was a bit of personal emotion involved in its selection. BTW, the image was cropped down a bit from the top to get rid of extraneous blank sky, otherwise it's the entire frame. :-) -p On 4/3/2017 5:24 PM, Steve Cottrell wrote: On 3/4/17, Brian Walters, discombobulated, unleashed: Well, we ended up with 70 submissions - well done all!

Really enjoyable and sometimes quite poignant viewing: the images submitted on behalf of those friends who have left us, really was quite touching. Lovely idea. I could just say that the whole gallery was great and you should all be proud and leave it at that.but I simply can't. There are some really standout images that I can't resist mentioning, and some others that merit a word or two, a couple that raised an eyebrow, a few that made me gasp, the odd meh, several award winners and one that inspired anger! In fact I had to explain that the pics weren't just submitted because the photographer thought his or her image was great, but because it was an image that meant something within their time on the PDML. There is history in these images, not just the obvious, but the history of the photographer, their own journeys and experiences. For instance, I chose my image not because it is a good image - it's really only so-so. But it means a huge amount: it was taken with classic Pentax film equipment, the subject is so dear to my heart, and it reminds me of happy days watching my son grow up, warm summer days in the countryside, discovering the PDML, and a zillion other things. So really, they can't be 'rated' as perhaps in a normal PUG. That said, These things are *always* subjective and me and the Mrs disagreed on several pics - she would 'oh wow' herself silly while the same photo rated a mere 'meh' from me. But this is my email so she can go fish. My standouts: A Pug for the PUG by Mike Wacht - because who doesn't like a really good shot of a dawg. Grandfather Mountain by Bill Owens - that classic view that makes my heart skip a beat. RIP Bill. Gospel by Bruno Macedo - Long exposure producing stunning result, just a lovely image. Bruno, if you're lurking and reading this, be proud. I love it. Old Window by Simon Williams - my wife loved this. Meh. Good pic tho. Nephews by Derby Chang - Derbs, this is supreme. Fantastic image, love everything about it. Sheer brilliance mate. Light a cigar. Sunset at Grandfather Mountain by Ted Beilby - Ted I've never seen this before! Touching moment with my lad, made me well up! The River by Brian Walters - Mrs cooed and aaahed. It's misty water FFS, get over it. Nicely done though. A Winter Afternoon by Vladimir Koukal - Vlad old boy, break out the vodka, I likes a bit a symmetry when I can gets it. Lovely stuff! Claudia - My First Photo by Krzysztof - WOW. Striking and made me look a long time. GREAT work mate, must be a photo-god what with one name like Brassai, Ctein, Cotty (har!) Leading Lady by Bruce Walker - yep seen it before, dreamy bokeh, great shot, etc etc, was expecting some nice legs or something. See teacher. My Girls by Paul Stenquist - not seen this one before, lovely playful shot, against the window too but nailed it. Mount Lagorce by Ken Waller - WOW OH WOW. Breathtaking. Fog in Hawk Wood by Malcolm Smith - LOVE THIS MALC - that is sublime. You should be doing serious landscape work. That's a winner mate. Descent by Subash Jeyan - holy mackerel Subers - this is such an amazing photograph, about the BEST pic in the gallery. Love it completely and utterly. Find myself keep having to look at it again. That is fantastic. Can't tell you enough. I'm giving up photography and going to see out my days as a capybara. Happy New Year by Matt Burt - the Mrs and I agreed on this one, stunning colours and atmosphere. Hats off that you worked hard to get it. Le Disque Bleu by Rick Womer - GREAT shot Rick - real strong atmosphere what with the colours and the ghostly figures, real sense of place. Love it. The Gathering by Jay Taylor - There's no great overriding reason why this pic works so well. LOVE the space around the group huddled together on the spot surrounded by all this space. Lovely vibrant colours and a real fun pic. Super! On the Brown Line, Chicago by Christine Aguilamonster - I've said this before and I'll say it again. Robert Frank would have been proud to snap that.

Re: 20th Anniversary PUG is Up!
On 3/4/17, Brian Walters, discombobulated, unleashed: >Well, we ended up with 70 submissions - well done all! A fine way to >celebrate 20 years. >As usual you'll find the gallery here: > >http://pug.komkon.org/ Just had a sit down and spent an hour going through the PUG with the Mrs. Fantastic selection of images, some I recall seeing previously over the years, others never seen before. Really enjoyable and sometimes quite poignant viewing: the images submitted on behalf of those friends who have left us, really was quite touching. Lovely idea. I could just say that the whole gallery was great and you should all be proud and leave it at that.but I simply can't. There are some really standout images that I can't resist mentioning, and some others that merit a word or two, a couple that raised an eyebrow, a few that made me gasp, the odd meh, several award winners and one that inspired anger! In fact I had to explain that the pics weren't just submitted because the photographer thought his or her image was great, but because it was an image that meant something within their time on the PDML. There is history in these images, not just the obvious, but the history of the photographer, their own journeys and experiences. For instance, I chose my image not because it is a good image - it's really only so-so. But it means a huge amount: it was taken with classic Pentax film equipment, the subject is so dear to my heart, and it reminds me of happy days watching my son grow up, warm summer days in the countryside, discovering the PDML, and a zillion other things. So really, they can't be 'rated' as perhaps in a normal PUG. That said, These things are *always* subjective and me and the Mrs disagreed on several pics - she would 'oh wow' herself silly while the same photo rated a mere 'meh' from me. But this is my email so she can go fish. My standouts: A Pug for the PUG by Mike Wacht - because who doesn't like a really good shot of a dawg. Grandfather Mountain by Bill Owens - that classic view that makes my heart skip a beat. RIP Bill. Gospel by Bruno Macedo - Long exposure producing stunning result, just a lovely image. Bruno, if you're lurking and reading this, be proud. I love it. Old Window by Simon Williams - my wife loved this. Meh. Good pic tho. Nephews by Derby Chang - Derbs, this is supreme. Fantastic image, love everything about it. Sheer brilliance mate. Light a cigar. Sunset at Grandfather Mountain by Ted Beilby - Ted I've never seen this before! Touching moment with my lad, made me well up! The River by Brian Walters - Mrs cooed and aaahed. It's misty water FFS, get over it. Nicely done though. A Winter Afternoon by Vladimir Koukal - Vlad old boy, break out the vodka, I likes a bit a symmetry when I can gets it. Lovely stuff! Claudia - My First Photo by Krzysztof - WOW. Striking and made me look a long time. GREAT work mate, must be a photo-god what with one name like Brassai, Ctein, Cotty (har!) Leading Lady by Bruce Walker - yep seen it before, dreamy bokeh, great shot, etc etc, was expecting some nice legs or something. See teacher. My Girls by Paul Stenquist - not seen this one before, lovely playful shot, against the window too but nailed it. Mount Lagorce by Ken Waller - WOW OH WOW. Breathtaking. Fog in Hawk Wood by Malcolm Smith - LOVE THIS MALC - that is sublime. You should be doing serious landscape work. That's a winner mate. Descent by Subash Jeyan - holy mackerel Subers - this is such an amazing photograph, about the BEST pic in the gallery. Love it completely and utterly. Find myself keep having to look at it again. That is fantastic. Can't tell you enough. I'm giving up photography and going to see out my days as a capybara. Happy New Year by Matt Burt - the Mrs and I agreed on this one, stunning colours and atmosphere. Hats off that you worked hard to get it. Le Disque Bleu by Rick Womer - GREAT shot Rick - real strong atmosphere what with the colours and the ghostly figures, real sense of place. Love it. The Gathering by Jay Taylor - There's no great overriding reason why this pic works so well. LOVE the space around the group huddled together on the spot surrounded by all this space. Lovely vibrant colours and a real fun pic. Super! On the Brown Line, Chicago by Christine Aguilamonster - I've said this before and I'll say it again. Robert Frank would have been proud to snap that. OUTSTANDING. Top of the pile, just makes me want to go out and take photos. Inspirational Christine. But you knew that!!! Go suck on a bottle, Ellie Pano by Alan Cole - my Mrs was like 'yeah yeah move on' but I'm like 'that's really great composition', really like it Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico by Joseph Tainter - Again, outstanding work, teasing with the crop, but absolutely superb. Meuse Valley After the Snow by Yves Caudano - Whoa mate! Made me dizzy. Astonishing hues. Zoning me out man. Remarkable! Anna in the Cabin, Fontana Dam, NC by Doug Brewer - what can I say? Digit

It's acted fine with my eactivist aol account before. It is what I used for years with PDML. It may have something to do with the fact I haven't used that email account, period, for years.

Re: 20th Anniversary PUG is Up!
My mail does not seem to be showing up on the list, despite my initial test, but after my flip comment to Ann I decided to add this. I liked Shel. I like characters, and Shel was a definite character. He was also a d fine photographer. On the whole, I enjoyed him. Until our last photo outing together when his grumpiness outweighed his enjoyment in doing photography that particular day (his legs were bothering him). It didn't hurt that he unabashedly liked my photos. Called them painterly. So the PUG picture is a tickle in the ribs to Shel (re portraits), and a remembrance. I don't know if he is still alive. Last I heard, quite sometime ago, he had a physical problem with his legs, had given up photography again, and was becoming a "foodie." (I do not remember the physical problem, but it was not unserious.) His leg problem is why in later years he mainly took pictures inside: a chair, a dish of soap, etc. (still good pictures). But before that, and in earlier years he had been a very good street photographer. So I asked him to go to SF with me one time show me how he did street photography. One of our earlier trips (I think we got together, the two of us, 3-4 times). There was a flower vendor. An obvious shot, a person surrounded by all those colorful flowers. So he went up and started talking to her. (He may have first asked if he could take her picture, and she said no. I don't remember.) He talks to her more and is taking her picture all the time, with the camera at his waist (he did not need to look through the viewfinder. I think a few others on this list could/can do that too). Finally, she says, "You're not taking my picture are you?" And he said something like, "No, I wouldn't do that." All the time taking her picture. As we walked away, I said something like, "That seems a bit underhanded." (or sneaky or whatever I said). And he said, "That's how you do street photography." Well, it makes a good story anyway, and it pretty much went just like that (as far as I can recall). He recommended talking to people to establish a connection with them, to relax them, and sometimes they might consent to a photograph, and sometimes they might not.
