I am not a bit offended by the "a** & m****" words. I always wanted to submit mine but never have the courange to. This time, because of your repeated posts, I sent in mine last week.. Hope my images do not adversely affect the quality of the Year Book". Fond Regards, Hi Joe, Thanks for sending them along. >> Hope my images do not adversely affect the quality of the Year Book".<< Sure they will! They'll make it better! :-) Nothing adverse whatsoever! Look the book isn't about submitting brilliant images, that isn't what the LUG is about. Sure some days we see incredibly brilliant photography! Then there are days? Oh my God! ;-) The book is a place for the crew to add a couple of shots for the fun of it and to have a picture or two printed in a book! It's for the fun of doing it and seeing your very own pictures in a book along with a bunch of other guys and gals! It's all about fun, not some esoteric serious stuff! Thanks again for your timely submission. Cheers, ted ________________________________ From: Ted Grant <tedgrant@shaw.ca> To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> Sent: Monday, December 29, 2008 6:40:35 AM Subject: RE: [Leica] LUG Yearbook: Now We Are 90! >> Ted- I may be uncommitted- but not yet a moron. Stasys <<< Stasys mon ami, "I realize that!" But what we have here are people who have never been published anywhere in their lives and it's an opportunity for something special in their photographic life. And trust me having pictures published anywhere at any time truly is a monumental achievement feeling for any photographer, professional or amateur!" Besides if one doesn't intend on submitting, then please disregard my hard ass comment about morons, as it isn't intended for the folks who "ARE NOT GOING TO COMMIT IN ANY EVENT!" It's primarily for the "oh it's a bit too much for me, I don't have time for it. my pictures aren't good enough, etc. etc. excuses!!!!!! ALL PICTURES ARE GOOD ENOUGH AS WE ARE A FAMILY OF PICTURE TAKERS!" And that's the big leveler! We are all plain old fashion have fun picture shooters! Nobody here is making millions of dollars a year shooting for any magazine or organization. No offence intended for anyone really, it's merely a motivational move your ass kind of thing! The other side is... "IT WORKS!" :-) Cheers, ted _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
