Fortnightly Competition # 18 "Movement"
Wow! what a turnout! I kept thinking I had it sussed and then another great shot would appear. I think the winner for me is fairly obvious, but the next few are very close and really, could be any way round. I really struggled to decide. I like to see people making an effort so snap-shots have to ...

COMMENTS - MOVEMENT Fortnightly Competition
I don't want to be rude here, but most of these photographs show movement from a stationary position, and I think that the ones that are panned, and still in focus, are of a much higher level of technical ability (although we are probably not judging technical ability here..) Heidi's shot is almo...

COMMENTS: Fortnightly Competition number #19 "The Sun"
I think we should have done something about him leaving Pentax. It's sad to see him go. I hope that one day he'll be back with us. Wouldn't it be great if he would win this one, would keep him around for at least another fortnight. And his shot has all it takes to win, it's creative and it's carr...

COMMENTS: Fortnightly Competition number #19 "The Sun"
I doubt you'll be regretting it. Still, I don't suppose RR will have time to read everything when he gets back from holiday, so in the unlikely event I do win we might get away with volunteering him :lol:.

Comment's for Weekly Competion SPOTS''n'' DOTS.
Where is the place to add your pictures? I never have any trouble finding the comments threads, but the actual competition threads get bumped to the back by all the comments on current and previous contests!

FORTNIGHTLY COMPETITION #20 - Relaxation or relaxed
Well I do apologise for choosing what must have been a very off putting subject. Perhaps the tension elsewhere in the forum meant no-one felt relaxed! Many thanks to those who braved the challenge and here are my thoughts. I hope my clumsy use of English doesn’t cause any unintentional offence! a...

Weekly Competition 106 Action.
This has been discussed previously and many long-standing members prefer the Fortnightly Competition in the Forum. Suggestions for change always seem to arouse strong feelings so it's a brave person who wants to go there again. Personally I'd rather have the Fortnightly Competition in The Gallery be...

Weekly Competition 106 Action.
I totally agree. If you look back at the old competitions in the forum, lots of pictures are now missing because people have not maintained their images on their hosting services. It's a real shame. The Gallery is much easier.

Weekly Competition # 107 "Dream"
Appolagies John. I did not want your splendid photo removed and nowhere in your set of rules does it say that it has to be from a Pentax. It was just the shock :o You are our well respected, honoured, father of our forum and protector of the brand. While its not my, humble, place to critici...

Hmmm.... glad I took the trouble to enter. Not! Still I guess this must happen sometime. Feedback might have been helpful though.:-( Maybe there is a genuine reason for the delays & lack of feed back but it does disappoint somewhat. For what it is worth, Lilly's entry has my vote. Ca...

Weekly Competition # 107 "Dream"
Lets not get too downbeat about the delay in Rapala's comments. I'm sure there was a very good reason. Its rare for there to be any hold ups (I was guilty of one myself not so long ago) and the weekly competitions work very well 99% of the time. A few months ago someone won with an excellent photo ...

Ps, I am not the superstitious kind of guy, but maybe this is the prelude to the end of a already declining competition format.

Fortnightly competition #21 COMMENTS
There's a scene at the back of my garden that I've shot several times because of the interesting shadows and I was really hoping to capture it again for the comp, but - as seems to be typical - the only two days in the last two weeks when there's been enough sun to cast any shadows I've been away! ...

Fortnightly Competition #22 My Roots, My Place
Well I'm back from my little trip to Paris to see the big Henri Cartier-Bresson exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (and I got told off for taking pictures, but that is another story!) But now to the serious busines in hand. I wondered how many of you would be willing to create a kind of autob...
