Like Ann, I had some issues trying to relate to the theme, and I went a bit outside the bounds with my own contribution. Looking at the contributions of others, I was reminded of images I do have with a similar theme, but Still Life is just not embedded in my vocabulary and I hadn’t considered those earlier. So I was very pleased to see how others had interpreted the theme. I always learn something from the way others See through their lens. Stan It's interesting that the usual concept of 'Still Life' involves inanimate objects, which may be still but are certainly not living. Your submission fits the literal meaning of still life. :-) Brian -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: I don't understand...
It's not just older versions of Lightroom - Google's API change affects any older software that uses Google Maps as a map interface. My Zoner Photo Studio 17&18 are similarly affected. Fortunately the map interface in the trial version of Zoner's current offering has been updated to support the new API - so I use that for geotagging.

Re: K50 - Aperture Motor Failure?
I don't have a K-50 but this problem seems to have been reported for not only the K-50 but the K-30 as well. If you Google Pentax Aperture Block failure, there are lots of hits. This particular link suggested a fix - don't know if it always works but might be worth a try: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/58-troubleshooting-beginner-help/342828-pentax-k-500-aperture-block-failure-resolved.html Here's another suggested fix: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4221791 Good luck Brian > On 29 October 2018 at 07:20 Ed Keeney wrote: > > > Seems as if I might have an aperture motor failing on my 4 year old > K50.

I'm neither a boffin or Igor and I don't use my gmail accounts for PDML, but I seem to recall others saying that that they don't see their own posts when using gmail.

PESO - Hanging On
My wife and I recently did a road trip around New South Wales. One of the places we visited was Mungo National Park. part of the UNESCO World Heritage–listed Willandra Lakes Region. It's a wondrous place, not just for the spectacular, eroded landforms - archeological work has established evidence of human occupation here, dating back at least 40,000 years. This small tree, clinging to life, deserved a photo: http://lyons-ryan.org/PESO/slides/_IGP9606-K5-1-PESO.html Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ https://500px.com/supera1000/galleries -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Sonorous just means giving out or capable of giving out a sound, especially a deep, resonant sound, as a thing or place: A photo of the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia would fit & doesn't someone from the list live in Philadelphia? Maybe the inside of a basketball arena.

I don't think that's the problem. The issue is that participation in the PUG has been tending downwards over the past year or two and the majority of themes haven't been too demanding. I just have the strong suspicion that a theme like 'Sonorous interiors' will get little support. Happy to include it but I'd need some serious encouragement from the list to do so.

October PUG is UP!
G'day all, Another smallish gallery this month. Some good stuff there. My favs - Don's 'Big Wheel Keep On Turning' - great colour and the boy next to the loco emphasises the size - and Pete's 'Larry Keeping a Weather Eye' - yes, a cat!, but forming an almost perfect circle. View 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: 'Upon Closer Examination'. Full Submissions Guidelines here: http://pug.komkon.org/general/autosubmit.html You can submit here: http://pug.komkon.org/submit/ Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Every time Prickly Pear is mentioned it brings to mind the devastation that the plant caused to farmland in Australia in the early part of the 20th century. It was introduced here in mid 1800s and at its peak in the late 1920s covered almost 25 million hectares. In one of the most spectacular examples of biological control, it was tamed by millions of larvae of a moth (appropriately named Cactoblastis) which chomped their way through the prickly pest. There is even a memorial to the Cactoblastis moth: http://monumentaustralia.org.au/themes/disaster/plagues/display/91971-cactoblastis-memorial Cheers Brian ++++++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ https://500px.com/supera1000/galleries -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PPG
Yeah, there's obviously a problem. Someone on DP Review mentioned failed uploads a few days ago so, even though it's been several years since I've uploaded anything to PPG - or voted for that matter - I attempted an upload as a test. It failed. I've just tried again and it failed again. Maybe it's a temporary glitch?
