Nice gallery, liked them all (and I mean that, heh). I especially liked Thunderstorm, Badlands by Matthew Hunt (great sky and nice flat land below). And The Ice-Cold Bud's for You by Ken Waller (that does look like a hand reaching out, sort of an ET hand). And Spring Cold Rain by Paul

Thanks, Marnie. I agree...this kind of image doesn't usually work for me either. I have a bunch more that I took that day and this was the only one that I thought had any potential. The rest just looked like OOF pix. -p On 4/11/2013 10:09 AM, eactiv...@aol.com wrote: And Spring Cold

Thanks for everyone's favourable comments! I used to live in Waterloo when I was a student...or the 'Loo, as we called it... ;-) (For the uninitiated, Kitchener-Waterloo - or KY as some of my friends used to refer to the place - are two cities kind of stuck together.) At 10:35 PM +

Yeah, the response has been pretty muted lately. But that in no way diminishes my respect for the maintainer (thanks, Brian!) and the many talented contributors. On Wed, Apr 10, 2013 at 6:35 PM, knarftheria...@gmail.com knarftheria...@gmail.com wrote: I remember when the monthly release of PUG

With so many other pictures being presented here, the PUG has gotten lost. This is a sad situation because the quality of the monthly offerings is a cut above the everyday PESO's and GESO's. I would hate to lose it. Regards, Bob S. On Wed, Apr 10, 2013 at 6:40 PM, Bruce Walker

Thanks to those that mentioned mine. I'm partial to storms so I like Matthew's also. Nice looking updraft base! The one that really took me by surprise though was Paul Sorenson's Cold Spring Rain. The through the wet windshield gives it a real painterly feel. A good gallery all. On Wed, Apr 10,

Thanks for those positive comments, Darren. I had to go back about 7 years in my archives to find it. I had to do some errands that day and on a whim grabbed the camera to take with me. Turned out to be serendipity... -p On 4/10/2013 8:27 PM, Darren Addy wrote: Thanks to those that
