Thanks, Don

just getting to see your comment now  andyour comment is an example 
ofwhy I don't think we should call something
funny pre-viewing.  I had taken other purely scenic shots from that spot 
but the reason for the one in the PUG was
to me a comment on how severe  but selective the winds were in Tornado 
alley and hoped the response to the photo

would be a chuckle..

Darren , Brian and Rick producedthe ones I likedbest
- question for Darren:   is that a haboob?

My photo was taken not far from where I had seen threatening skies , 
borderline tornadic  butit stayed in the distance and
at the golden hour I had a nice rest stop , though rather pestered by 
skeeters.

Re: October PUGgery now up!!

2015-10-07 Thread Darren Addy
Thanks to all for who mentioned "The Sand Sower". Another enjoyable
gallery and thanks to Brian for his work in assembling.

My favorite of the bunch this month was Pat's "Sailing off Arran". A
beautiful image of a beautiful scene.
I liked Brian's "White-Bellied Sea Eagle" a lot. Only wish it had a
bit more room around it. Super sharp and love the textures in the wood
and the wind bent feathers.
Sticking with the "Eagle" theme,I liked Ken's "Eagle Harbor
Lighthouse" (and remember it as a PESO).

Great gallery as usual, but my two favourites just were Wind Power by Dan
Matyola & The Sand Sower by Darren Addy.

Thanks for the mention Rick, and I'll have another look at how that could be
improved. When I went down there to take that picture, I could hardly stand
up in the wind. It remained windy until the exact moment the tripod was set
up, and I then had to stand and wait for another 30 minutes for the wind to
pick up again.

I'd give Darren's "Sand Sower" the nod as my favorite this month.
Ken's "Lighthouse" is close behind, but lists to the left. Malcolm's
"Thistles" is also close behind, though the shot could use a bit more
contrast.

I love looking at the PUG. Thanks, Brian!
