Thank you so much Kirk, Jim, and Merg for expressing your support for this project. It's a bit late for coffee, but I suppose I could use a slice of protein.

Yes, anywhere in the world! Got 'em David, and I've uploaded them to the gallery page. Thank you!

Thanks Jackie! Hope it's warming up there! I think you'd be impressed with this year's veggie garden. I'll send ya pics when the lettuce takes off. :-)

Thanks for providing a few, Andrew! Beautiful work, btw. :-)

Thanks Drew! Sounds good!

I'm researching the square thumbnail issue, and from what I've read, images in Wordpress have to be uploaded at the time that settings are changed, if they are to be displayed differently than...

When you click on the image, it will enlarge in a lightbox. Those instructions are above the list of photographers. Point well taken -- I'll see what I can do. I'm not sure I can alter the square...

The LF online gallery is published on the ESC4P website. If you'd like to have your images included, drop me a line. Instructions are at the beginning of this thread. If you have any questions,...

Thanks to all the photographers who have sent me images for the ESC4P website. Keep 'em coming!

I was asked whether images made with a digital back are okay to submit for inclusion on the esc4p website. Yes, any image is acceptable as long as it was made with a large format camera. :-)

Thanks Steve and Drew! No, I'm not looking specifically for east-side Sierra material. Subject matter is open. Select your favorites and submit those. Thanks for your interest in helping out! --...

Cool beans! Thank you, Kirk!

Eastern Sierra Center for Photography (ESC4P) could use your help. We're interested in providing an online gallery of large format photographs on the ESC4P website to help educate the public about...

Clearing my mind (and life) of clutter is key - to me anyway. Keep it simple, stay away from drama and negativity, and laugh everyday as much as you can...

Kirk,

The rains start in AZ around 4th of July. If they don't begin then and the rain is really late, they begin in August. I think you made a good decision choosing an August slot. The Arizona...

To me, what was interesting about this question, is it caused me to pause and reflect on how I've grown (as a photographer). There were cameras on my list that I hadn't thought about in years, and...

Forgetting a camera would be like forgetting someone's ... er ... never mind. :o

You just got an album cover -- that hard work should be rewarded, dontchathink?

Congratulations! I'm a tad jealous by the way. ;-)

Vaughn, I like the way it is too. Check it out upside down. Quite nice that way too. :-)

There's much more to "good composition" than just balance. It is so instinctual that there may not be words to describe it.

Sheesh! Cut the OP a break for starting the thread, and those who might wish to contribute to it. There's no harm being done here. But there is the potential for harm when folks communicate in...

I use intuition to compose. It's a feeling thing for me. If I feel it it's right, if I don't I move on.

Cool beans! Thank you, John, and James!

Thanks so much, Jim! :-)

Thank you for the encouragement! It means a lot! :-)

Thank you, Steve! :-)
