I had taken a photo for the Kitsch PUG and was hesitant to submit, since
it's not my normal type of photo.
After looking at it a little more, I decided, what the heck. So here's a
PESO.
Keeping in line with the commonly accepted definition of kitsch:
something that appeals to popular or lowbrow taste and is often of poor
quality
Mind you, I frequent Starbucks several times daily, Walmart weekly, and
McDonald's when life is not worth living.
I give you: "Corporate America".

Herb,
I don't mean this personally, but in my experience, it's definitely the one
who pushes the release that makes the difference, not the equipment
although I've been told a few times that my images were pushing the limits
of my equipment (with Pentax lacking a tilt/shift lens).

i spend a lot of time studying my competition, their techniques, and what
they deliver. i know just how hard it is to make those shots with my
equipment, and i know just how many more shots my shooting acquaintances
make with their non-Pentax equipment that cost about the same as mine. i
also know what those who have more advanced equipment are delivering. i'm
buying some non-Pentax equipment in the next couple of weeks to enable
that. not doing so is becoming more and more foolish. for the time being,
i'm not selling any Pentax equipment except possibly really low end stuff
i barely ever used, just in case the right Pentax body does show up sooner
than later. the soonest i can imagine is sometime next summer to actually
have one in hand. i can't wait that long.
Herb....

It's amazing how many people can't see that when technology makes
something possible, that technology will be used, standards go up, and
you either adopt the technology or find another line of work.
Using their logic, Danica Patrick would have placed just as well in a
1960s era McLaren.
