The CondyPet Parlour of Craic!

[condyk]

The CondyPet Parlour of Craic!

So, my fellow failures ... Tupperware chat continues elsewhere and this is a fresh and fruity (like Ms Claire) proposal to participate in a primary pantheon of photography.

I (or a minion) will offer a small everyday creative task that one and all can indulge in. There are no rules other than My Word, which will always be dealt out fairly. Timings are based on Greenwhich Mean Time which is the only time that counts in this world we call 'POTN Village'.

Past precident of 'perfect and harmless fun' projects such as 'fine feathery friend/food' and 'Interesting: Artist, Idiot, Exhibitionist' teaches us that there are many an upright member unable to follow a simple 'intuitive' instruction, i.e. a direction one 'feels' and pursues, rather than one that is clearly understood and followed like a Lab Rat or a Hampster/Wheel combo might.

The direction this time will thus be presented clearly for the foolish and headstrong. I realise that many are not of autodidact level, but we so want to be inclusive of the daft one's here present too ... for there are many amongst our kind :-)

INSTRUCTION

1. You are given a one word subject 'project' to undertake each evening
2. Within a 24 hour period you shoot shots of any quality and taken anywhere
3. You abandon attachment to approval or rejection: this is KEY!
4. You present your chosen contribution for the craic of this little sub-community :D
5. Projects will overlap across timezones so let it go, don't try and control time :evil:
6. There will be no judging as such ... the winning fool should be obvious each day
7. All may comment and so judge subjectively
8. All those lacking in humour are banned, unless they submit to ribbing easily :evil:
9. Any complaints then you know exactly where to kiss: MC CyberD's ring of office!
10. Project may be fulfilled clothed or bare, tho' shots must always be 'decent'

So, we have project announced each evening GMT, you go shoot, you post ... end of story; then communal craic ;-) YOU UNDERSTAND y'all?

Between 11.00pm today and 11.00pm tomorrow the project subject is SCARY

All about the ship of FOOLS for we sail the sea of creative endeavour together ... as one united in daftery and spotty a*sed tom-foolery/rudery :p

[PetKal]

Yipeeeee, that's grand....thanx Conduc !

[condyk]

I'll start with a strictly 'kick off' shot taken earlier just to get your engines running.

Remember to shoot anytime and anywhere ... then post at least some old SCARY rubbish ;-)

Is Maria gonna be able to find us ? Is she stuck again in that "comfort" thread?:rolleyes:
(BTW, I think Maria may be mad at me because I have given her some honest, constructive an insigtful feedback on her images, as opposed to reflexive "good work, thank you for sharing".:confused: )

[ejwebb]

Whew - you guys keep me busy with the dictionary:

1. Craic

Irish word for fun/enjoyment that has been brought into the English language. usu. when mixed with alcohol and/or music.
'Bhi craic agus ceol againn' : We had fun and music.
Fun doesn't really cut it though. General banter, good times had by all.
Also, a person who is good fun/great company.

It was great craic.
She's great craic when she gets going.
He's great craic when he has a few pints on him.
What's the craic?
How's the craic?
The craic was mighty.

Note: Very tricky to get away with saying this in the US without getting strange looks for police officers.

Not very scary, but very well photographed.;)

Listen, we must enrich the gene pool.......get the youngsters in like Tlee, and Jagsoftware, Sanity Rose......aggies like Busterboy amd Maria (she is in already), intellectuals like Dr. Wee, Dr. Keppler, Dr.Unstoppable, Dr.DavidEB.
Revolutionaries like Bu(ffalo), llightcarvers like Lester and Lord V, PPers like Lorek, bulvans like MDJak, collectors like TPT, Bearsummer and Aerosmith......etc.

I think she has, but note scrawl above ... she has spirited in (Gin I suspect!) under the guise of EJ ... Lord knows what has become of him (or was it her!!) :confused: She has entered his/her body I fear. Who knows where those handbags will end up :shock: now

how does it make you think of that , maybe she reminds you of someone ?

I saw it alright but couldn't make out what it 'said'
even when you said the name here I looked again but couldn't make it out

no doubt my eyes (and brain) are not as sharp as yours

[PetKal]

We might have lost Dr.Jakov. He is the last one stuck inside that Titanic thread......keeps posting lomography to the Hava Nagila tune reverberating endlessly.:cry: :rolleyes: :cry: I think he wants to go under with his thread.

I will play along when it suits me and ignore y'all completely when it doesn't.. scary, it has been noted in my mind. camera is at the ready if anything occurs to me I promise to shoot the heck out of it...

That's funny...no, for some odd reason, I studied Greek when I was in High School. It took me awhile to see it on that girls leg. Thanks for correcting "Lambda"... :)

Ahh, yes, it was a long circuitous route. I had to recconoiteur a bit. Thought I posted it here, then found it elsewhere. I guess 900 round trip miles in two days, not to mention about 50 miles careening the woods on my ATV. My poor kepala is still spinning.

Good to be back. I was hoping that "abandon" thread would die.

me

[MDJAK]

I'm an instant gratification kind of guy.

Ergo, I want to know -- no, I need to know what tomorrow's topic is going to be. I want to get a jump on the competition.

And i want to know NOW.

BTW: Where's Dante been in all this mayhem? He's been strangely absent. I heard he's picketing outside of Calikocat's house and won't quit until he rescinds the trade for his camera.;)

Dr. No

Daunted's soul has been imprisoned in that 1DsMkII......Kalicky has it now.....his soul and the camera. It's a tragedy, really.:cry:

The barb will lacerate your skin and the berries will inject a neurotoxin into the puncture wound.....even birds shun this old rusty barbed wire.:shock: :cry:

[PetKal]

Then, poisoned crawlers will get to work on your paralyzed flesh.

[ejwebb]

Nice additions. The dancers do scare me. And Balam's natural fears are the scariest kind.

Balam, I have a poisoned crawler of my very own (and I know it's oversharpened)...

[PetKal]

Good show, Webb, arachnophobia never fails to grip me, for one.:lol:

[PetKal]

for some odd reason, I studied Greek when I was in High School. :)

That's impressive, dood. Non private (secular) schools in Ontario have not had any real classical studies for decades.....well, never mind that.....even the ubiquitous French instruction has been ineffectual in the extreme.

[T.D.]

Are you scared of those with this extreme view or the implications if true?

Scared that people would stand in the middle of the street shouting through a bullhorn and carrying a sign that you have to believe as they do or you're going to be subjected to eternal damnation.

[T.D.]

I thought I posted in this thread. What the heck happened to it?



You posted one over in my "just ordered the 100-400 lens" thread. I wondered what you were up to! ;-) And here I thought you were just posting in random threads asking whether you are accepted or rejected! :oops::D

[ejwebb]

Scared that people would stand in the middle of the street shouting through a bullhorn and carrying a sign that you have to believe as they do or you're going to be subjected to eternal damnation.

I'm with you but...what if they are right?

Man, this thread is slow today - see what happens when everyone plays nice and noone is being bashed or rejected!! PK, I see you are busy stirring up controversy elsewhere!

PK - did you just go out and take those this morning? "Nice shots" but who's afraid of slugs? Gross, yes, but scary?

[Olli]

Everybody is busy shooting scary things. :confused:

[PetKal]

"Nice shots" but who's afraid of slugs? Gross, yes, but scary?

Webb, it not so much what you see....but the thought of who might have put them there scares the bejezzus outta me.:(

Glad you found us by a special kind of inbred (literally) navigation system for craic. Welcome abourd the liferaft we launched from that sinking, stinking tub of rusty metal.

Man, this thread is slow today - see what happens when everyone plays nice and noone is being bashed or rejected!!

Oh yes, we need spice to keep the ardour up. Have no fear. Release your venon (in an appropriate manner that won't scare small children or 'gentle souls') :rolleyes:

That's a beauty Olli ... yuck!

Glove horror, Pt.2.

I likee the glove horror show ... I have one from way back but didn't take the shot fresh today so not allowed :evil:

My version of scary:

Oh yes ... nice. Was it a fashion shoot? See how all those people are dressed. Must be Paris or London eh?

We might have lost Dr.Jakov. He is the last one stuck inside that Titanic thread......keeps posting lomography to the Hava Nagila tune reverberating endlessly.:cry: I think he wants to go under with his thread.

Here is another entry to this non-competitive competition (please the liberals!) Shows a vision of the future for many guys who like a pie and chips a tad too regular!!!! Looks happy enough tho ;-)

Well, Maureen, I just like shootin' and sharin' as much as I like collectin'.;)
Nothing I can do about some folks who prefer computer work to fieldwork.
On my way to find some scary targets today, I literally stumbled on a dead 'possum. Scared me good.:(

[condyk]

Ok, scare fans ... the time has come to name a Deserving Winner and a barely deserving runner up (an also ran! Another form of loser really.) So, even tho' it's not a competition we are allowed to have winners and have everyone else as losers. Get it?

The also ran ... well done Olli. Well captured everyday horror :D

http://www.laasanen.net/POTN/CRW_3954-01-scary1.jpg

The first winner however (who isn't one) is Petey. Well done pops you captured a deeply disturbing image of contemporary horror, i.e. turning up to a posh young farmer event organised by Marie and realising you'd left an essential accessory on a fence :rolleyes: How people talked about you behind your back :rolleyes: :o

However, the image has been scary and disturbing deeply to me, and I must assure you it was not choreographed. And by no means do I wanna make light of it. Enough said.

Thank you for sharing.

Ok, we're all having a love in and so it's time to select a new topic for our silly little project. Having launched the boat it is time for the Captain to allow one of his underlings to step forward for a turn at the wheel.

So, Uncle Petkal shall be steering the ship with a new topic, as winner (non-winner!) of this competition that isn't. Pick ahead shipmate :-)

You silly woman, you should know by now that Cham Balam does not, and knows not how to, do any major PP.;)

OK, maitre Conduck, whadaya say if this time we take something more cheerful and hope inspiring and less abstract for a change. Something we all have/get....something we usually expect with hopeful anticipation, sometimes they do deliver bills, bad news, tax assessments, etc.....but most people love them.....

OK, you wanna play recalcitrant, that's fine, but in a way you won that one, and it was announced (very reluctantly, I must say:cry: ). You also won a little presentation.....THIS:
(The Queen V is still very special in the hearts of many Canadians). :cool:

Man ... you girls are difficult. Like herding Cats :-)

i'll have you know I was planning on heading to the post office.... :evil: :evil: .. but, if you're gonna kick me out I should just skip the attempt at all.. talk about unfriendly.... (sitting in the corner).. you made the girl cry.... shame on you.... :p :cool: ..

sari

[saravrose]

so, if I were, even though i'm unwelcome and being picked on from two different boys that are much older and bigger than me...and therefore the school yard bullies, If, now if I were to say, have to go to the post office anyway.. and decided, theoretically to take the camera along, would any such photographs be accepted, or declined on the basis of my gender....??. Or, are you still up for giving the girls half a chance...?..

Well you seem to have chosen to take sides based on the commonality of gender as opposed to reason and enlightenment.:cool:

Any girl can post. Look at how Marie is treated. Like a shootin' sister. She is a multi award winning loser, a little like all who participate ... including us. We are an equal opportunity project, just some seem much more equal than others. That is hardly my fault :cry: :cry:

I'm near my pillow talk time now so may sound a bit more fuzzier then usual especially with no smilies to explain all for me

We're all eeeeeeejits lad ... just some think they're not and they must be tamed ;)

Marie, your prize of prizes is here (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showpost.php?p=2285700&postcount=6470)

I suspect it's a variant of 'Idjit,' which is what I was frequently call as a child.

you are both acting wonderfully suddenly. I am overcome, not by those results
no, I am overcome and overwhelmed (and overhere) by all this kindness and just before my 'now I lay me down to sleep .... .................. begging the lord my soul to keep' etc etc


have read all the list . not an easy task for you guys to put together at any time , so thank you
and reading the small print I think what you said further back here was ok and the whole truth after all.
not a slap in the face of a cold fish in sight:eek:
thank you
I never realised you went back there:mad: after you closed the shop for the night Petkins

thanks both
have a lovely ......... whatever

OK, now that having been settled, back to the harsh reality of the underprivileged:
Dr.Jakov seems to have gone LOCO: he is bumping the Titanic Thread :rolleyes: :evil:

[saravrose]

well I have returned.. and I even went to radio shack to return a phone and picked up one of those headset/speaker things.. to talk to my sisters while online... hmm... how do they work? Oh well... Oh, and I did take photos at my post office, even though it's a bit premature because I'm downloading and nothing has passed my initial approve/deny that every picture taker must make for themselves.. would anyone like to see them?..

Okay, as I'm one of those "behind Americans" I just caught up on this thread. You guys are exhausting! ;-)

Good to see ya back Turnerdadze....now is the time to sharpen your wits, polish your lens and have an early start stalking your mailman/woman tomorrow.

The same goes for Sanity Rose.....remember "succint" ?
Good, let you little camera do the shootin & talkin ;)

[MDJAK]

Ok, scare fans ... the time has come to name a Deserving Winner and a barely deserving runner up (an also ran! Another form of loser really.) So, even tho' it's not a competition we are allowed to have winners and have everyone else as losers. Get it?

The also ran ... well done Olli. Well captured everyday horror :D

http://www.laasanen.net/POTN/CRW_3954-01-scary1.jpg

The first winner however (who isn't one) is Petey. Well done pops you captured a deeply disturbing image of contemporary horror, i.e. turning up to a posh young farmer event organised by Marie and realising you'd left an essential accessory on a fence :rolleyes: How people talked about you behind your back :rolleyes: :o

Obviously, the fix was in. One of the two judges won.

As Gomer Pyle said to Sergeant Carter: Sue Prize, Sue Prize, Sue Prize.:evil:

Just back, too, and you guys are exhausting. Now, how to get some postal pictures between now and work in the morning. I may have to find some time in the middle of the day for this one since it will all be over and moved on to the next subject by the time I get free to surf tomorrow night. The old world folks do have an advantage on us in these daily projects...

[PetKal]

:lol:
OK, we have to work on some details here....

(1) we are talking Postal Service, like USPS.
(2) if you wanna do others, it has to be browntrucks.

Be creative, son....be a man ! :evil:
A suggestion:
(1)Have you got a telescoped rifle or a gun ? Oh good.
(2) Go postal.
(3) Take a mirror self portrait while ....err....sending Lola away....like make-believe faked thing, ya know....

Geeezz...how difficult is that ?:rolleyes:

we didn't sign up for a workshop.. we signed up for craic.. and since I've had the dang term explained to me on IM I don't think there should be rules...:p :p ... but, if it is a workshop how the heck did my blown sky pass muster?...:rolleyes:

[PetKal]

but, if it is a workshop how the heck did my blown sky pass muster?...:rolleyes:

Because we always look at the bigger picture here, beyond "good capture, thanks for sharing".
