Comments: exhibit of 24 JUL 2010

[YGelmanPhoto <ygelmanphoto@xxxxxxxxx>]

Although all of this week's photos are worthy of various levels of  
"very nice" there are three on which I'm moved to comment specifically.

>                   David Small - Contrasts 	   This photo is a  
> pleasure -- at least for me especially.  Perhaps it's because I  
> myself lately feel like I'm missing things to "see".   I've probably  
> been at the site -- or others like it -- and missed this.  So this  
> image is a call for me to wake up.  Terrific shot.

>                   John Palcewski - Don't Bother Coming Back 	    
> Another instance of noticing something fantastic and shooting it.   
> At first I wondered how the light got that way, but when I figured  
> it out I just sat back with admiration.


>                   Emily Ferguson - late winter sunset 	In my  
> discussions with other photographers, we sometimes consider such  
> images which I'll just call "minimalist" to categorize them without  
> wanting to be offensive.  I just don't understand the attraction,  
> however, that others espouse.  Is it me?  There is structure in the  
> clouds but not in the water -- except for the sliver of red at the  
> shore.  Very unlike what Emily's shown before.  Perhaps others can  
> chime in (even rebuke me) . . . .
