RE: Feb PUG
"In the rain" gets my vote as well. A quiet beauty permeates much of Gianfranco's work. This, coupled with a lack of pretension on the part of the photographer, yeilds an emotional impact that you just don't see in a lot of shooting. I also confess that I found annsan's picture most striking - the underexposure works to its advantage, and I almost believed they were real horses in there.

RE: Feb PUG
Never having seen this picture "Fun at the Fountain" of Jerome Reyes before, this is my top favourite amongst many good shots of this month. The expression, the position of her arms and legs, as well as the movement of the kids in the background all make this an unforgettable (and not standard) picture in my opinion. My next favourite is "In the rain" from Gianfranco Irlanda. And so on...

Re: FEB PUG - Quick Look
Cotty said: "What a fabulous gallery. All are of a very high standard. The ones that jump out and slap me in the face are: Wet n Wild, FairyGirl." Thanks Cotty! "Red Leaves, Dag Thrane" Me too, I LOVE this shot - highly saturated but still with great detail, just gorgeous! Love the composition with just one curled edge adding that small touch of green to the image for some great contrast. "A Watery Post, Ken Waller" Same again, Cotty. I love this shot too Ken. It is beautifully sharp, and almost appears symmetrical in nature. This is the type of shot that I probably would never have thought to do myself... " Fountain, Bruce Dayton" A beautiful example of night photography, with a twist due to the movement of the fountain in the foreground. "In The Rain, Gianfranco" Hands down, my absolute favourite...! I also liked (in no particular order): " Vasa, by Joseph Tainter" Really great shot Joseph! One suggestion though - the blue "column" in the middle (a reflection of sorts?), I find slightly distracting - I would probably PS it out if it were me... Other than that, a lrvly shot with a very interesting perspective... " Hot Water, by Cotty" Another interesting shot with an interesting perspective. Good to see that you have a clean stove (cooker) - my hotplates never look like that! lol. " Wet Bee, by Mark Cassino" Goes without saying really, this is a very impressive shot! I want to make special mention of "Two Rivers", by Erin Dayton. Thankyou so much for submitting a shot of your fantastic "discovery". I too would have been very excited to find this out! It is lovely to see some young people submitting to the PUG (and especially GIRLS! lol). Just one thing Bruce, maybe you could give Erin a lesson or two about horizons? *grins*. Thankyou again Erin, I hope that my little boy enjoys photography as much as you do! I will make some more comments later, but I've had a rough night and I'm going to go back to bed for a bit! tan. " Fun at the Fountain, by Jerome Reyes" So very cute! Shots that *I'd* wish I had taken: "Everyday Miracle, Simon King" Simply STUNNING Simon. A moment that just cannot be repeated and you have captured it perfectly. Look at the expression on his little face! The light's really add atmosphere! I would post some similar shots of my daughter being born, but lets just say, well, I didn't have a ceasar and they may not be everyone's cup of tea! They are in black and white too though, and the medical lighting offered a similar "atmosphere" to them as yours. I just LOVE this shot Simon, and I would have been so proud to be the photographer of it (as well as the nervous daddy!!). Thank you for sharing such a precious moment with us... "Stone Town, Zanzibar, 1998, Bob Walkden" Again, I am in agreement with Cotty here - this is a beautiful shot. Feels classic in its nature, and although sunset silhouettes are quite commonly shot, this one is indeed special. There is such grace in the diver and the clouds were perfectly placed to give off just the right amount of colour and light from the sunset. Going to be a little cheeky now, and note though, that the horizon is SLIGHTLY off - possibly by 1degree? Sorry, don't mean to criticise, it is just something that I always tend to notice... " Moss, by Jostein Øksne" - lovely and most interesting shot!

Re: Feb PUG is smokin'
There are many, many technical issues with Netscape 6.0, especially in the area of JavaScript. The commercial website I produce and those done by many others have "No 6.0" policies in effect, meaning that we'll support any revision prior to 6.0 but not later. Stick with 4.7x. In fact, Netscape has continued to release updates to 4.7. t On 2/1/02 4:47 PM, Ann Sanfedele wrote: > I submitted to the last 4 PUGS getting there in Netscape > 4.6.
