While I generally like this week’s submissions, I of course like some better than others.

Christopher Strevens - Bicycle

This appears to be a well-composed balanced shot from Chris. MY only real complaint is blur, but that comes with cellphone cameras.

Bob McCulloch - The Gunks-Smileys Tower from the South East

OK, the tower is in the shot, although it is in the distant background. To my uneducated mind, this appears to be a shot of a road.

Michael Hughes - In Memoriam

This happens to be a topic about which I know a lot. RAF Attlebridge went live in 1941, got transferred to the USAAF in 1942, and hosted a number of bomber groups including the 446th (Heavy) which flew B-24 Liberators for 232 missions while losing about 500 fliers. Today it is a large turkey farm and although I would rather have seen a building or two rather than the plaque, the turkeys are closely guarded and I hope Michael did not summarily get tossed out by a certain guy in a blue hat wielding a double barrel shotgun. I love snooping around at RAF bases as they are full of surprises to say nothing of history. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Attlebridge As an addendum, it should be noted that the US & UK built about 700+ airfields from which to bomb Axis airfields. They used every yard of concrete available in Britain from 1941-44 and it has been said that the US has many aircraft carriers, the largest of which is Britain.

  

John Palcewski - Smoke

I guess this could be termed an action shot, and we do not see many any more. I think they were more prevalent with SLR’s rather than iPhones. It adds a nice touch to this gallery.

Randy Little - Arches Utah Court house rock.

While this is a pano, it is much wider than I like to see. Nonetheless, it is well composed and exposed.

Art Faul - The First Camera Tee, 1974

What can I say? I should have printed millions.

Andrew Davidhazy -

I know this is a Davidhazy Mystery, but I think it is a nude. And OK, the parts I usually look for seem to be missing, but... so is it a naked hand or is there something I can’t see.

Randy Little has a series exhibition in Gallery 10 at http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-10/

Last week the counter read 7951 and when this collection was installed the counter read 8165

Enqueued for future installation: none - contributions welcome!

To participate in this activity find instructions at: http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-sub.html

Send your contributions early and anything you can do to prepare the photographs so they do not require additional adjustment would be much appreciated. Especially keeping them near 1000 pix in longest dimension and 200Kb in maximum size. Large images that run off the edges of average monitors are a pain. Larger is not always better!

Please take an extra minute to abide by this request but if you have doubts about how to prepare images just send them anyway and the capable gallery staff will adjust them for exhibition.

Did you know you could have a series exhibition? Learn all about it on the instructions page mentioned above.
