I'm guilty of it; this very week, I did not think either shot was strong enough, and I ended up posting a two-fer. Jeffery posted multiple shots, even Kyle is into series. Kyle's question does beg an answer, "When is it an idiom and when is it a rut?" I know I have high weeks and truly low weeks, but I do promise that no matter what I post, it is the best I have in hand on Monday morning. A couple weeks ago, I posted that dreadful shack shot, but it was the best I had. Two days later, I had George and his Dragon costume. I posted it just as a gallery entry, though it was clearly the finest thing I'd shot since Christmas. It was my "real Photo A Week", but I had missed my self-imposed deadline of Monday. I shoot lots of stuff, but some of it never makes the page, and some never gets posted. A couple of examples of shots that didn't make photo of the week, even though they made me feel good to shoot them. http://www.sonc.com/shopping.htm http://www.sonc.com/ilsashops.htm and finally, my lovely wife Kathy bakes all our bread, every week, even though she's a busy Mom of two boys, and a Public Health Nurse, and has to put up with me. http://www.sonc.com/bread.htm Anyhow, enough of the these ramblings, I just want to urge you (and me) to become a little choosier about the stuff we show. Maybe an alternate each time, then, if you have another you like, post it at another day of the week. BUT, that said, if you truly have a series of shots that work together, by all means, post them as a series. It'll make the PAW more enjoyable, I promise.
