Re: The 2021 PUG - Themes & High Res

2020-10-27 Thread Igor PDML-StR



Brian,

I would suggest a slight modification of some of the suggested topics.
(I think this way, it might open the theme for broader interpretations, 
thus inviting some out-of-the-box contributions.)


Close up -> Up close and personal
Food -> Calories for Intake
Eggs -> Eggstatic or Eggcentric
Snow -> "Snow what?" or "Is that snow?"
(I've decided against Every Snow Often, I suppose snow, I told you
snow, but feel free to use any of these.)


I don't remember if we had this theme, but if we hadn't, we should (given 
the habits of the PDML):

   Puns

Additionally, I suggest a theme that allows broad interpretation:
   Cogito ergo sum.
(The phrase by René Descartes, meaning "I think, therefore I am", but 
everybody probably know that.)

I hope this one will inspire some fun photos.

While I was writing all of this, I saw some comments from others.
I sort of agree that "Eggs" might be a difficult theme for some.
Seeing that some people do not like Farm, and others do not like Garden, 
I'd suggest combining the two into "Farm and [or?] Garden".

(Farm-O-Gardon ;-) )

Cheers,

Igor

All look OK, but I had to look up on the internet the meaning of 
Derelict:  Abandoned I understand it is.

For me Food, Eggs and Garden appear the least attractive.

Least favorites  - FOOD and EGGS,

In a non covid era I would like -on the beach- but for those of us who 
know the Nevil Shute book not to mention the quote that inspired his
