Hi Darren,
I though about cloning out that out-of-focus stuff in the background, but didn't want the pic would look like shot in the studio, so I decided to leave it there.
Opinions, of course.

Thanks, Larry. After I submitted that, I did a monochrome conversion
that (IMHO) is even better:

The image above was invited to Flickr EXPLORE from my photostream
(only my 2nd image to be given such an honor).

I also think that Dario's portrait is the cream of the crop, although
the slight inclusion of whatever in the lower left is a bit
distracting to me. I also think it is funny that we had TWO
submissions of long-haired girls on swingsets. What are the chances?
(I like both of them).

Thank you, Brian. Much appreciated!

My picks from the gallery ...

Dario's portrait is excellent, and I agree with Bob's Birth of Venus parallels.
I love Hank's shot. I guess I have a soft spot for puppies on a horse. :-)
Rob's Fun Guys is both fascinating and yucky.
Larry takes the double entendre prize.

Brian, thank you once again for your efforts.

G'day all

After a slow start, a rush of submissions resulted in one of the largest
recent galleries.

Like last month, Bruce has my favourite with "Anemone pulsatilla" but I like Dario's 'Lisa'and Paul's 'Halo, too. Not quite sure what to make of Larry
W's 'but Shapley'....

Certainly a gallery with a wide range of interpretations on the theme.

As usual, you'll find the gallery here:

http://pug.komkon.org/

(you may need to refresh your browser if you see the previous Gallery
there).

Note: The automated submission process usually works well but it's not
infallible.  So, if you made a submission and you don't see it in the
gallery, let me know.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Next up for June is 'Open Gallery' - post whatever you like!!

Submit here:
