Lovely photo deetee!

Terrific captures as usual Durango Dude!
And what on earth did you do deserve this:)! I ask because I'm a veteran at this pastime, but fortunately/unfortunately, I'm still too mulish to conform!

Wonderful images, i20ian! I admit I'm ignorant and I'm not familiar with Nelliyampathy - where is it located?

Same to you Nilanjan! As always, difficult to pick out my favourite!

Sublime images, ajay_satpute! Being a glutton, I must admit you're a man with great taste!:)


Soothing is the word that comes to mind, Durango Dude - both your captures have that effect!

I have to admit that coming to this thread always has that soul-food effect! With folks like you, Durango, Nilanjan, i20ian and so many others - its the perfect remedy for jangled nerves!

Absolutely tickled pink!

Earlier today I got an email from the Royal Photographic Society that based on my panel of 10 photographs I am now being recommended as a Licentiate of The Royal Photographic Society. Still to be approved by the Distinctions Committee and by the Council to be ratified. But that should be a formality.

I have been working on this panel for two years. The RPS has only three distinction levels and the Licentiate is the first one. An L panel needs to show that you are a competent photographer, now how to deal with different lighting conditions, depth of view, shutter speeds etc. But also, the panel as a whole needs to present as a pleasing coherent overview.

These images are from various travel in India, UK, The Netherlands and Venice.

Now i need to start thinking about my next project. Getting my Associate distinction. It’s not so much getting the distinction itself as well as the journey I find interesting. I have said it before, I find getting constructive feedback from people in the know one of the most relevant parts in improving my Photography. And there are some extremely knowledgable people in the RPS. I must admit I don’t always agree with their rules. But that is a consequence of joining a particular club. Either you comply, or you are going to get very frustrated.

I can honestly say that I think my photography has improved considerably over the last two years. Also, I have started printing and mounting my own work and that again makes a huge difference. Looking at a printed A4/A3 image in a nice mount is so much different than looking at it on a screen!!

Below my show called hanging plan. This is the way my images for displayed for the 5 RPS Assessors. The individual images look rather dull as this is all highly compressed!
