G'day all Travellin':
Marg and I are heading off on Thursday for a trip to Central Australia and Kangaroo Island, so I'll only be on the list intermittently for a while (although internet access seems to be available in even the most remote places). Hopefully I'll come back with some reasonable photos to bore you all with.... Blogin': As we did in our 2009 trip to Western Australia, we'll be maintaining a travel blog and will be updating it whenever possible. If anyone would like to follow along with our travels, here's the link. http://apathyman.wordpress.com/ There's just a placeholder there at present - but you can treat that as a PESO :-)> PUGin' At this stage I anticipate being able to produce the August PUG while we're on the road, but it would be good to get a head start before I leave. So far there are just two (2!!) submissions so, if you're planning to submit - please do! I don't want to have to grovel two months in a row.... For the record, the August theme is 'Monochrome Landscapes" and here's the usual small print: Nominal cut off date for submissions is 30 July (although the submission form will probably be up for a few days after that). Submit here: http://pug.komkon.org/submit/ Submission Guidelines here: http://pug.komkon.org/general/autosubmit.html The main requirements are: * Max. pixel dimensions: 800 x 800 pixels * Max file size: 300k * Third party equipment is acceptable provided either the camera body or lens used is Pentax. Also - as not all browsers are colour space aware, if you embed a colour space in the image, it should be sRGB to ensure the image looks right on line. I usually check the colour space of submitted images but I've been known to forget.
