I think you can discard the two photos before the last. The last one is a keeper in my eyes. It is an interesting artistic question, of how many, and which pictures to include in a gallery. And the answer would change for the audience, for example photographers, or motorheads. I'm curious which shots other people would include in my bestest collection, whether it's only one, or all 16. Indeed. I used to be very selective when working with the shoots from Galia's class. I am unofficial official photog of the class if you know what I mean. But then people started complaining that I give them too few pictures and I had to become less selective. It seems that I reached the balance in this specific case as they appear to be happy now. Well, even here it is a tough question as I realize that among the photographers on this list there are not one and not two motorheads as you put it.

Re: geso best of the bugs
Larry, without disrespect, but perchance you can trim it further, to, say, 8 images? I am not trying to attack you, I rather challenge you to be as brief as you possibly can. That's an interesting exercise, I think.

I just loved the Bugatti that looked like it had been painted with a stick. There were several there that looked like they had been honest racecars, and had not been restored to garage queen status. I had a net.friend who I haven't heard from in a while, Roland Dudley, who drove around in a beater 289 Cobra. I saw him drive by on hwy 9 once and knew it was him because there aren't too many cobras on the road that have had the paint stripped off, but are being driven around despite the owner not having gotten around to repainting them. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
