January 2007 PUG is open

[John Forbes]

Not a bad collection.

Just to mention a few:

I especially liked Bob Gesselin's "Quiet Time", which strongly suggested  
the small, private world of the child.

Thrainn Vigfusson's "Winter horses" seemed rather dark and dreary on my  
monitor, which was a pity because I liked it otherwise.

Mark Cassino's excellent "On Patrol" might IMO have worked just as well  
without the patrolman (and with a different title).  It's the strong forms  
that make the picture.

Filip Nicolaï's "Sluis" is a lovely, timeless, picture, evoking the  
sepulchral quiet of a Sunday afternoon in the country with not a breath of  
wind.

Harald Rust's "Endless Sea and Sky" breathes new life into a frequently  
photographed subject.

Joe Tainter's "Chiesina di San Pietro" has a great three-dimensional  
quality, thanks to the ruined wall in the left foreground.

But I also enjoyed all those I haven't mentioned.

John

PS: With thanks as ever to Adelheid.
