I agree that this month's PUG is one of the best ever. FWIW, my personal favorites
are:
" Framed In Ice " by Mark Cassino: Very effective shot; one can almost feel the cold
wind! I especially like the
contrasting shapes and colors.
" The Driver Walked Away " by Byron Butler: Great action shot! Definitely NOT a
fluke, however; if you are in the
right place, at the right time, with the right equipment, and the camera set for the
right exposure, how can it be
called luck?
" Panorama from Rauland, Telemark " by Jostein �ksne: Wonderful sense of place, plus
great technique in creating
the panorama.
" Look Closely " by Bob Sullivan: What an eye he has to visualize this shot and then
make it work so well! Great
color and great framing, including just enough of the subject to tell the story
without letting the whole overwhelm
the details.
"Apostle at Ste. Chapelle" by Gerald Cermak: I was there last spring, and I know that
this is a tough subject to
photograph, but he really managed to capture the beauty and the spirit of the place.
" Catapillar On Watch " by Paul McLean: What a great concept, finely executed! The
dissimilarity of the two
principal subjects really play well against each other.
" A trio of Mycena Rosea " by Jan van Wijk: I love the composition, the point of
view, and how the fragilitiy of
the subject is revealed by the lighting.
" Betsy on the Rocks " by Ed Mathews: A haunting, sensual image. I'll look for Betsy
when I return to Maui later
this year!
"Cabbage Trees" by Linda McKie: A surreal vision pervaded by a sense of mystery.
Very effective.
" Bluebird " by Bill Owens: A great portrait with very interesting composition. The
space above the bird's head
conveys a sense of size and vulnerability to me. A really lovely shot.
