good luck with the competition judging then!
So its safe to assume he knows the drill.

Hi Aiki,
interesting thought - I met my new granddaughter for the first time in December 2009 ( she was 18 months old ) and after taking about 100 shots in the first day or so my daughter suggested that the kid would grow up thinking her grandad had a Pentax stuck to the front of his face ...!!
The up side is that she now plays to the camera and is VERY photogenic.

Outstanding image, Kris.
Might have known you owned one of my most coveted lenses. (I've lost even more sympathy with you now!)
Had a great afternoon on the Somerset Levels yesterday...sun even shone!
Best wishes,
A.

Even if this lens is cheaper than the DA* 300 it is a very capable lens. All of my PPG shots were taken with one!

Usually it's the picture that comes closest to the judge's choice of topic, and is also a fine picture that wins. But if the competition were to be judged purely on photographic merit what if Mattox had decided the most competent entry was, say, of the kitten? That was hardly human suffering. Its a fine line and I wonder where it should be drawn?

I find it quite amusing that a few individuals get so uptight about a "Relaxing" HOBBY...
