I say the time has come for Conduc to post some from his own image archives, however sparse they might be, so that this thread may come to a climax of levity and mirh.

what a good idea... how about it Dave...?

Yup, after we decompose Conduce's arte, then our work here is done, and we can start to think of other new projects.;) :cool:

He did. I asked for a sample, he gave us a woman who couldn't decide which mail box to put her letter in.

I think what he's saying is he cant be bothered to vote anymore and is passing the 'responsibility' on to us:)

And I always thought it was the 'yoof' of today had no stamina :-)

Damn, I must have missed that one as has everyone else except his doting Heloise ! I suppose then that his arte reliquium has received the most elevated sort of approval...a tacit one.;)

Not bad...a couple of suggestions for the reshoot:
(1) kneel down so as to capture the kids on an eye-to-eye level....your kinda high-up perspective gives the image a P&S touristy feel and also casts a demeaning pathos on the subjects.
(2) Avoid placing that non-consequential tractor/jeep tire inside the frame.
Thank you for sharing.

Excellent !:D And the feller in the background pointing invitationally at the falls, he is an asset to the image as well.

So much riff-raff rapping on their whims ... so, finally (the thread is not just tupperware after all!) amongst the last 100 or so 'comments' (sic) we find a greater flowering of talents. Each shot building and building to a showering climax of talent, tenacity and tension, where humour, pointedness and 'eye' mix and match, fooling each other, frollicking together in a sea of art, crap and daftness.

I applaud many of the sad, drooling losers here. The winner will be thus be crowned in due course, but not yet! S/he has still to be chosen (some say fate makes it preordained, but who knows but the big fella (or lady!) in the sky (or somewhere, everywhere, like in that little kitten, or stone, or Big Mac or rat?)

Any MC must allow his underling Hamsters the room to grow and so MD Jak is hereby appauded and promoted from Dolt to Fool for his 'comments' comment. Any image offered must be commented by the shooter him/her/itself in some small or large way (Sari, that volcano of verbal eh-ness! Please edit and refine rather than spew!)

As to scoring an entry then the power is offered to the public unwashed here present to offer their view: Reject, Accept, Ignore. You are each ready (Marie we know is colour blind but that is her crown of thorns!) Which placement bites hardest and which wraps in a cockoon of sentiment and sensual sweetiness?

Som all must now be clear: the focus of the game, the approach of the 'townsfolk' contained here and the delegated excellence of your resistent and indulgent (yet boundaried quality wise) Meister :-) Seconds away ... grapple my Artists, Idiots, Exhibitionists in your seek of the Interesting :-)

A translation
Paragraph 1: The pics are getting better as the thread goes along, despite the overly weighted emphasis on jibber jabber

2: Thanks for all, even the rejected, for putting in a good effort. The winner has not yet been chosen.

3: MDJAK is now a fool, instead of a Dolt (wonder if this will effect his title? ) Feel free to, in fact he insists that people posting images include text.

4. He seems to be asking the rest of the readers to offer there own views and comments on each new images legitimacy in the thread (turned competition as in paragraph 2 he mentions a winner), accept them, reject them etc.. (as if to say before your comments were not invited? or perhaps to qualify that the judges are in fact vetting your own input as well? This in contradiction of paragraph one which implies that your comments are simply getting in the way of the actual material.)

5> er.. keep 'em coming? :lol:

Nice work, Cyber.
However, I think we are still one hopefully final step from clarity of thought and expression despite your valiant effort.
I'd rather see us start from scratch.....for no amount of translations can turn Danielle Steele into Virginia Woolf.

I grant you that to me as a reader the first one is indigestible while the second one is almost incomprehensible.:lol:
