March PUG IS UP (My comments)

Some brief PUG comments from me...

I  thought it was an outstanding gallery, but my time is limited so some 
brief  comments on the ones that jumped out at me...

Trees and Hills -- Harald  Rust   

No surprise I liked this one, I usually love Harald's  stuff. And he wisely 
never seems to post on PDML. :-) Too busy shooting, I  guess. Lovely layering 
and layering not just of textures, but also tones and  shapes.

Vase - Peter McIntosh

I very rarely shoot very ordinary  things. But this is great, the reflection 
makes it an intriguing abstract. Makes  me rethink shooting ordinary things.

Beauty Sleep - Hank  Terhell

This made me chuckle. What an unusual shot and angle. And, BTW,  just what 
are those things? Rabbits?

X - Gianfranco Irlanda

Great  low shot, what an eye to spot that that rail could tie the whole pic 
together  and make a good vanishing line. A different take on street 
photography.  :-)

Boats on Ganges - Suvro Datta 

I like the composition, but  basically I just like the dreaminess of this 
one. Silhouettes and soft light,  looks like early morning or something. I can 
almost hear the water  lapping.

Waiting for Summer - Paul Stenquist

Well, it's Grace, so  she's cute. :-) But she does also look wistful and the 
reflection on the window  does hint of things to come. 

Glorious Strangers - Ann Sanfedele  

Great juxtaposition of graffiti. And trust that you, Ann, would spot the  
sign that pulls all those graffiti into an overall  theme.


Later, Marnie aka Doe
