That's the trouble when we have the camera - no or few shots of ourselves - I sometimes take a beanbag if I'm on a walk so if there's some suitable scenery I sometimes use the 10 sec delay to get a picture of me and the scenery - my kids often want me to send them a photo of me!!

That's how I got the one for my avatar!
Well hear is a challenge for anybody going to the lakes Pentax meet on the Saturday. Take a better Avatar shot for me, sorry no fees paid.

Well this is the best I could find, I'm usually the one behind the camera!

I find this an interesting but slightly disturbing post, as the least among equals in this group I am wondering if this is the wrong forum for me, being a total photographic beginner who is also severely dyslexic. I find, not having been baptised fully in the language a photographic criticism hard at times to pass more constructive comments than “I really like this shot “ and I also feel that currently my pictures are at least poor bordering on mediocre giving me little right to be critical of others. I have the feeling from the comments above that I am expected to remain as a mute member only allowed to ask questions and to leave the remaining conversations to the site illuminate. However I do agree with the comments regarding text speak and abbreviations this excludes members who are not in the know.

Bunnahabhain is my ideas of heaven, although a glass of Laphroaig on a winters night is really relaxing. P.s. I have neither lenses but you can't have everything.

1,6 and 7 are my favourites. You can’t begin to imagine how envious I am, flying, photography and the best seat at the venue. I'll have to persuade the other half to let me have some more micro light lessons..

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 because of its easy access and user-friendly viewing system. It's not possible to access the competitions in the Forum to see all the past and present entries at a glance the way you can with the weekly competitions in the Gallery. And it's easier to enter a picture in the Gallery without having to use a third party medium to do so as you must do in the Forum.
PS: To get back on topic, I'm pleased to see a healthy start to the current Weekly Competition.

Far be it for me to open old scars, . As a new user I totaly agree with David
