Nice photos


I have a few friend who have "work allergies" though and would probably
not want to look

A couple late submissions. Note that others are due as well assuming
they fix their file sizes.

I wasn't going to comment on these, but what the heck. Might as well contribute something.

I couldn't see hanging any of these on a wall. I could possibly visualize Bowser's #2 & #3 being in a magazine. Makes those the best, in my mind.

Congratulations to the rest who were able to rise to the challenge, unlike me.

Funny you should mention that. Both of those images ended up in
corporate annual reports, and the #2 shot did end up in a magazine.

But I really wish I had the time to scope out something new. I sent
three archive shots. Embarassing.

Yes, maybe, but to a stock photographer archive shots are most of his income
(except for an occasional assignment).
I think it is just as challenging to pick an appropriate shot out of one's
archives for the mandate as to go shoot something fresh. The skills are
practically the same, just the timing is different.
Although it *is* nicer to do it fresh - more like fulfilling an assignment,
but to those of us who are somewhat impaired, archive shots is sometimes the
only way we can participate in events like the shootin.

I agree with you, but so often archive shots are specifically
excluded.

Maybe we have the next mandate: A photo for Otter's wall.

All we have to do is figure out what kind of photos that Otter likes.

As to those who think the quality of the photos in SI is slipping,
we've already met and exceeded the mandate of: Better Than Bruce's.



Does reaching that goal give you a sense of satisfaction?
