Yeah, I had some personal "doo-doo" accepted last year. I really can't complain and maybe I should feel a wee bit guilty for submitting some especially smelly stuff that got accepted. Seems to me the standards for acceptance have been lowered and I've been taking advantage of it. Submit a few more, Frank. Hopefully I'm wrong and the voters have matured somewhat since you left. My sense is that your image posts deserve and receive more glowing comments from PDML members than most Seriously, thanks for your generous comments, Frank! Jack

This was before I started shooting the odd critter or flower; these were all street photos, all technically far from perfect but I thought they all had merit. After six rejects I decided to stop wasting my time. Haven't submitted since. Your photo certainly is worthy of inclusion. I guess when you throw things open to a public vote, this sort of crap happens. Which reminds me: didn't a pile of doo-doo get voted in last year? Maybe you're better off getting voted off the island, Jack. ;-) Cheers, frank "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: Jack Davis <jdavi...@yahoo.com> Sent: June 4, 2012 6/4/12 To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <pdml@pdml.net> Subject: PESO: Struggling Pine Shot near the crest of a high pass through which you enter the eastern gate to Yellowstone NP. A few years ago a person bought a framed print of this from a retail display at a local photo shop. A few days later she was back declaring it "positively spiritual" and bought a second copy for a friend. It was just "declined" by PPG . Comments?
