So 6 photos of mine ready for review on the Pentax gallery
I'm gathering that you guys that are in already are among those voting as to whether I get in the gallery? I never thought I'd be doing this at all so forgive me if this is a topic that has been widely rehashed. also, guess I can't vote for others myself if I don't yet have at least one photo in the Gallery - would seem right. ann -- 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.

No, last I heard, you don't need to have at least one in the gallery in order to vote. If you choose to put up the 6 images on this list, I'll understand. I'll do my best to judge fairly and not let my admiration for you temper my judgment. I'll try, at least.

Pentax Gallery observation - this should be safe from controversy
so I started voting... btw it turned out I'd been in for 4 years... had forgotten I was. Glad that it is anonymous on all fronts... but after spending about 45 minutes doing the voting chore I wondered if the site automatically screened out the voters submissions - since I didnt see mine come up... though I would think that wouldn't happen and there are just s many submissions being made. What I did notice was that out of perhaps 75 images I looked at , only two were taken with film cameras and scanned, and only one was taken with the ist D. I was thinking a lot of photogs got the new K-X or the K-5 or 7 under the tree and were submitting recent stuff in a love fest for the new gear. Anyway, at the moment I'm kind of fascinated. ann -- 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: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Many thanks, Boris! I'm frequently filled with doubts about my photography when I see the work of others. Usually, when someone who isn't a photographer says something nice about my work, I'm thinking about what's not so great about the shot -- Well, it could've been better if I'd done this, and maybe that... This was a really encouraging thing for me. Thanks again! -- Walt On 10/27/2010 9:16 AM, Boris Liberman wrote: Congratulations, Walter...

Re: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Thanks again, Boris. It is nice to have folks like you and the rest on PDML to turn to for guidance and an honest critique. I've had some generally bad and/or uninteresting photos get praise from people simply because they don't want to discourage me. There's no harm in that -- and it is nice to know that some folks just want to be encouraging. But, as with writing, you really need a cold-eyed appraisal of your photography if you ever want to improve it. So, getting good reviews from guys like you is a little more meaningful, and much appreciated. -- Walt On 10/28/2010 10:32 AM, Boris Liberman wrote: On 10/28/2010 4:32 PM, Walter Gilbert wrote: Many thanks, Boris!

Re: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Thank you, Bran! The way I went about it was to send a request for an Artist Code to photogall...@pentax.com. It took a while -- almost a week -- but I finally got one. There'll be a URL in the reply that'll take you to a page where you submit your images. You'll want to be sure to read the FAQ's first, of course: http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/artist?action=artistFaq It's been nearly a month since I submitted my photos, and I just found out today that the first was accepted. The rest (six more) are still in Ready for Review purgatory, and I expect it'll take a while longer yet. You don't receive any kind of notification that they've been accepted. You just have to keep checking in every so-often to see what the status is on your images. Hope this helps!

Re: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Thanks, Dan! I liked the image pretty well, but was surprised at the reception it got from the list, as well as people I showed the print to. I do tend to be a pretty harsh critic of some of my shots -- especially after I set them aside for a few days and look at them again.

Re: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Thank you, Paul! That shot is a big part of the reason I almost never go anywhere without my camera, and carry it over my shoulder even when I just step into a convenience store for a minute or two. I've been in that same location (my favorite watering hole, next door) at the same time nearly every Friday night for years and never noticed the light coming through the glass like that before, and haven't seen it since.

Re: Submission accepted to Pentax Gallery
Many thanks, Brian! I'm pretty sure I won't get too discouraged by the inevitable rejections. A big part of the reason that I post PESO's is simply to make sure I'm being objective. Even when I really, really like a shot, I tend not to trust my judgment. So, I post them here to see what others might see that I don't. And, like the proverbial dawn hanging has a way of focusing the mind, uploading an image and posting the link to PDML has a way of making you keenly aware of every tiny flaw in an image the moment it's too late to cancel the send. And, at least 95% of the time when I get suggestions or criticism on a shot, it's something I agree with -- in many cases noticed myself, but wanted confirmation of it from objective eyeballs. Whatever makes me a better photographer is worth any ego-bruising I might suffer in the process.

Re: Question about the Pentax Gallery
Pentax Gallery is Pentax Camera, but third party lenses are accepted. PUG is either Pentax Camera with Pentax Lens, Pentax Camera with third party lens or third party camera with Pentax Lens. Monthly themes are a guideline, but the image size has to be no more than so many pixels wide by so many pixels high with a file size no bigger than something or other. I'm sure I've seen the values for this written down somewhere, but couldn't find them just now. BW or color doesn't matter, although it seems to me it's easier to convert color to BW than vice versa.

Info request -- Pentax gallery
Hi all, From time to time, I see folks posting links to their images that have been accepted to the Pentax gallery. So, I figured I'd register on the off-chance I take a shot that would be accepted for inclusion. I tried yesterday, requesting the Artist Code so that I could complete the registration process, but haven't gotten a reply. It's been my experience with other similar types of registrations that the process is instant; submit the request, and an email with the requested code shows up in your inbox a few seconds later. But, still, I haven't received anything from the site. Is this normal? Am I going about things incorrectly, or is there some criteria that I have to meet in order to get an Artist Code?
