So are you nominating Chris Heather?

Hello,

I totally agree for the choice of Hinman (i too, i'm infected by LBA, and Hinman is a great source of inspiration - just got my FA-31 ;-) ...) and Marc Sabatella (really like his pragmatsm in his posts).

Unluckily, i don't have too much time for reading other posts across the forum, and i must confess that i don't know most of the people listed here ...

Best wishes for an happy new year (and for an FF Pentax body in 2009 ;-) ...).

Grossest Picture - Thomasjmpark and 68wSteve nominated I think maybe this should just be tie... a couple people have commented on both .. Can we do that?

Best Portrait - Codiac2600 nominated, first approval I can second this one... I love looking at Chris's portraits!!

So will this list be posted somewhere?? or will the voted on titles appear under our avatars???? just curious...

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!

There have been a couple more confirmations and the only nominations left were shoo ins so the List is complete.

If anyone else does have new nominations, you have a day and a half, I suggest you find approvers before you post the nomination.

I'm glad this category is being recognized. I really like her work. A relative newcomer making a nearly immediate impact on the site; just terrific skills. Visit her zenfolio from time to time for inspiration.

Is there a category for most PITA purist? There are certainly others who are more loathe than I to post-process....

I am honored with the "services to P&S photography" slot. I think Bramela was a likely candidate here. I am a firm believer that it's the person behind the camera and not the gear that makes a great image.
My oldest son bought me The Ultimate Field Guide to Photography for Christmas. Since I am off work for a while I dove right in to it. I am almost done and have really enjoyed it. There is history in it that I am enjoying. One section is about Robert Clark and his 2005 book of images taken with a camera phone!! on a trip across country. Now that will bring you down to earth in a hurry.
Although I cringe at the thought of traveling anywhere without my k10d or k20d, it is good to keep in mind that it isn't the gear that gets the image.
Anywhoooo...now that I've rambled more than enough...

Again thank you to those who nominated, seconded and confirmed to put me in the services to p&s slot.

Now that this is winding down, like LaRee, I feel honoured to be confirmed for "helpful" and "POTW". Thanks to those that put my name out there and confirmed me.
Lets all have a great 2009!
