I think that the first I heard of PPG was on the DPR Pentax SLR forum with people either bemoaning photos that had been rejected, or celebrating photos that had been accepted. The consensus seemed to be that voting on PPG was done by simpletons with a strong preference for cliche, and vivid colors. Or something like that.
I was finally able to submit some more photos, after which I decided to do some voting. If the voting on PPG is done by simpletons who love cliche, then it's because they are the only people whose brains wouldn't turn to soggy gruel by looking at the entries. In half an hour I looked at more flower pictures on PPG than I have in two years of reading PDML. And if it's not a flower, dear God, it's a building. A large, majestic building, perfectly centered in the frame, or a wide angle view of a magnificent interior, replete with a baroque domed ceiling. Almost every one of those pictures is technically perfect, taken with few flaws and less imagination. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- 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.
