The PhotoForum members' gallery/exhibit space
was updated August 10, 2013. Authors with work
now on display at:

include:
Jim Snarski - Liftoff
The problem with this shot is that the bee
arrives and departs the same way, so nothing in
the image actually speaks to the bee departing
except the title. I'm pondered this problem a
good deal when in this situation, both while
admiring the amazing way bees move, and when
trying to figure out how to express whether
they're coming or going with a still photograph.
The nice thing about the image is how crisp so many necessary parts of it are.
Christopher Strevens - Garden
Somebody needs to weed. And somebody needs to
figure out how to deal with blown-out skies.
Marilyn Dalrymple - Joan
There's something so conventional about the bg
canvas and pose that the image just went right by
me. It seems like a person like this with her
reported accomplishments should be shot in some
way which reveals more.
Yoram Gelman - VIP Gallery
Those potato chips are just my type! Those
chairs are the most uncomfortable mass produced
chairs in the trade currently. Such a sterile
VIP gallery. The presentation in b&w sort of
reinforces that.
Emily L. Ferguson - meticulous
It's a lobster trap. I loved the knots, so carefully and meticulously tied.
Bob Sull - It's OK, I'm ONE today!
Babies are wierd, and feeding them all that
Crisco and artificial color should be against the
law. The photo might have a less problematic arm
in it if it were vertical.
Randy Little - Farmers Market Haidian district, Beijing
People at Farmers' Market - colorful cliche image
but just a grab shot. I don't see that you put
much effort into this at all.
Art Faul - Obverse view of a print by Dürer
Paper was expensive then. Crop off the black and
put a small amount of light behind the print to
make it clearer that he used both sides. Nothing
in particular about the image reveals that to me.
Hmm. I sound grumpy today. Sorry if people feel
I've been a little hard on them, but there were a
lot of lost opportunities in this week's gallery
to me.
