I agree 100%. If I have 2 or 3 good enough pics I'll submit them and let the editors decide which one fits better with the rest. If I 'need' that one picture appears in the book, I'll only submit this one.
I still haven't received the book but, for your comments it seems that our first self quality check (before submitting) has worked quite well....

If one doesn't want others to choose what goes in, only submit one. >For myself, I'll likely submit three, if for no other reason than that I'm really bad at deciding which of my photos may be better or worse than others. I also appreciate that my ~what~ my photos are shown next to is important, and that if I submit something that works particularly well in a theme or paired with something else, it will only enhance my work to be so displayed. Since I have no way of knowing what others have submitted, I'll leave those curatorial decisions to the editors. It seems to me that submitting three photos makes their job easier (in a way) and also means that whichever of mine is chosen will look better as well. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
