Hi Duckie!!

Whereabouts in NZ are you? One of my friends has emmigrated there a couple of years ago, lives in Tuakau.

I'd love to go there.

You certainly are considered a committed member!

Second image for me. Subtler and more moody.
I'd have that on my wall.

Sorry if I'm being dense here but how can moving the weekly competition from the Gallery to the Forum solve the recent problems we've had? The difficulties we've just experienced have had little to do with the location of the competition

I think the point is that if people don't participate in the forum then they are unlikely to be aware of the competitions in there. Those that do participate might see the competition and think hey that's fun but they are already committed to the forum and are part of the community. Having the competition as a part of the gallery which is used and abused by all sorts of people makes it very visible to casual visitors and non Pentax users and hence they enter with no real commitment to our community.

Maybe that's unfair but it seems possible.

I've stayed out of this, but I'm inclined to agree Mike.

Theres also the Goth Weekend at Whitby on the 30th Oct-1st Nov.

EDIT; PS I'm easy and will fit in with everyone else's choice.

I hope to get there one year, but not this year unfortunately. Bet there will be lots of photos waiting to be taken there.

Hopefully you'll have better luck there.

I remember some of my first posts on here.
After having them disected and all of the errors pointed out, ( sometimes quite bluntly ) I nearly gave up. But, after following the advice, I started taking better pictures( sometimes ).
Still not up the standards of most on here, but hey..it's just for fun

The reason you should have walked past is that the wall has no direct lighting at all which would firstly light it and secondly draw out the texture. Or of course wait for a dramatic sky and make a silhouette.

Mike

Would returning at a different time of day help with the lighting?
It's one thing to consider :winks:
