First PPG acceptance w00t!
Posted by arpaagent, 07-05-2009, 09:00 PM arpaagent is offline
Glad to finally get one in! (a week or two ago actually just haven't announced here yet) I think 1 in 11 is my ratio of accepts to submits now. I'll submit a few more and hopefully get a few more in soon. But this is my first so it gets special recognition!

"Lizard, Basking" in PENTAX Photo Gallery



Thanks!

Very nice. It seems as though the voters on PPG like a good lizard shot. My first one accepted was also a very similar lizzard shedding its skin. Congrats and great shot.

Congrats!! Nice lizard shot also. Like the sharp details and bokeh on this shot.

I'm still waiting......and waiting....and waiting on mine.
