I'd like to get back to Norfolk - honeymooned there in 1969.  I doubt

It is also an international place, not just a playground for the

I have long described Facebook as a perfect example of what happens when

Also, like other "free as in beer" platforms, if you aren't paying for

So engineers are about as good at video as they are at documentation?

A key moment "The code is the documentation, if you don't understand it 
you shouldn't be looking at it."


Which has nothing to do with actual engineering, except the person 
saying it had once called my code two clever by half.


It has nothing to do with the subject except that I think that company

Re: Intl. Photo Day 2016

[P.J. Alling]

We used to have open galleries once or twice a year, IIRC.  That would 
make it easier since you could put up any old shot lying around, at 
least once or twice a year...

I actually thought about every month being an open gallery - thinking 
more people would submit without a theme... but I do like the themes 
myself, actually.


Selecting one month as an open gallery sounds good to me, 
personally.   The synchronicity theme we did before, I believe, was a 
day in September.


A day late in September or early October would be my vote - Fall here, 
and spring in the Antipodes.  I thought it was our synchroniciy day 
was what morphed into World photo day.. and is effectively an open 
gallery in a way..  but perhapsmaking it a week instead of a day..  
just throwing things out.

Re your other suggestion (in an earlier post) about an Open Gallery
section each month.  We did that for a couple of years after I took over
PUGmiester duties but we rarely got more than one or two submissions,
which is why I replaced it with an Open Gallery as one of the monthly
themes. It's a bit more work to include an Open Gallery each month - not
overwhelming but I wonder if it's worth it for a couple of submissions.

The Open Gallery month morphed into the World Photo Day theme for the
past two years.  Maybe we should just go back to the general Open
Gallery month in 2017.

Re: PESO - torso study #1

[Bruce Walker]

Yeah, I pondered that for a while but decided it worked as this is a
subset of a torso. Torso being the trunk of the body minus the head
and limbs.

I couldn't come up with a synonym for derriere that didn't sound
crass, so torso it is.

Thanks for looking and commenting, Godfrey!

Re: PESO - torso study #1

[Bruce Walker]

Two words regarding the black spot: Cindy Crawford. :)

I did hide all sorts of other stuff that bothered my esthetic senses
(like dark lines in the hose), but I am very selective about the
"flaws" that I remove in a shot, and both of those I intentionally
left. The seam because I like where it fell, and the black spot partly
because it's a birthmark, so part of her identity. But more
importantly I am now seeing how small idiosyncrasies often make a
shot.

Thank you for your comments, Jack!

It helps give ideas, it helps set standards. it is interesting to see others’

Re: PESO - Convict Barracks Ruins

[Alan C]

There are some families in SA descended from convicts who managed to escape 
overboard & swim ashore when the ships passed by. Probably several didn't 
make it! Nevertheless, those who did could easily evade the overstretched 
authorities in the wild days of the Cape Colony & enjoy their new found 
freedom. One Phalaborwa family claim their G-G-Grandfather (O'Connor) found 
his way to a sheep farm in Dordrecht where he initially worked as a farmhand 
but eventually married the farmer's daughter.
