Re: June PUG is up

[Ken Waller]

Thanks for the comment Brian.
While there are many images in the June Pug to admire, I think your's show a 
very creative eye for spotting your image.

Thanks, Darren. It took me quite a while to see the possibilities in that 
photo.
I came across it in the archive recently while looking for something else 
and
wondered what it might look like if I gave it the Silver Efex treatment 
:-)


I agree - Ken's image is special.

GESO: Fathers' Day Cactus

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Every year at Fathers' Day, my prickly pear cactus burst into bloom, with
lovely yellow flowers.  Fortunately, this year is no exception.

The prickly pears are a nuisance most of the year, with thorns that are
almost impossible impossible to dislodge once they get under one's skin.
They have two great features:  The prolific blooms in June and the fact
that they are one of the few flowering plants that deer will not eat or
trample.

Taken early this morning:

It (the species) invaded the UK in the early 50s.  By 1972 it was where I lived 
halfway up England, at which point I moved 200 miles north.  It took until the 
mid 1990s to reach me and it is ubiquitous now.  I saw them in Edinburgh, 150 
miles north, earlier this year so the spread appears to be slowing.  The damned 
things never shut up.

PESO - confluence of circumstances

Sometimes you are prepping for a shot and something unexpected happens.

PESO 2019 - 039, 040 - GDG

A pair of photos from yesterday's bicycle ride, testing a new ultra-wide lens.

I wrote a bit more about the lens that I posted to the Leica and Rangefinder 
forums, if you're interested to read it.

I agree - Ken's image is special.

Brian
