Just to add to that, the PUG can also be a vehicle to see what various
types images Pentax gear can produce - coupled with the creativity of
the photographer.

How about a month that is totally open, even to non-Pentax photos. I am
sure many of us have photos taken in our younger years with non SLR
equipment that we're proud of.

Hi Adelheid;
I, for one, like the alternating theme/open format. The theme months often
make me shoot something I normally wouldn't shoot, which would stretch, and
hopefully improve, my photography. Some theme ideas: animals, motion,
environment, opposites, humor or funny, urban or rural, children
I would think that every month having a "theme" as
well as an "open" category would be an improvement
over the current setup. That way good shots would
not have to wait months for submission.

Much too tame. We need:
X-Rated
Assasins I have known
Car Wreck Victims
Cadavers
Now _thar's_ 4 months of themes that'll perk up
interest from outsiders.

Personally I think there are already far too many themed galleries.
I wasn't a great fan of the 'Synchronicity' concept when it was first
introduced, and by now it's an idea that is more than a little overworked.

Every gallery open.
That means I can submit to any gallery
without having to run out and waste a roll
just for the Pug. I waste enough rolls as it
is.
