Hello all! I am going to make this a sticky post in hopes that I can get all of you who have submitted pictures to the Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) and have had them accepted please post a couple of them here and please link back to your gallery so we can see your work. We have so many incredible photogs on this site I am curious to see what Pentax considers your best work.

Thanks!

Submitted today fro rejection.

I've had a couple of pics waiting since late April. Is it normal for it to take that long? My first lot were done in a few days

dws1117 · 05-18-2008, 07:13 PM

The bottle was rejected. Not surprised. It's nice and I like it, but I'm biased. In reality I probably wouldn't vote for it either.

Many have seen my picture of the molting lizard, would it be one that you would accept or decline?

Or this one.

Don't spare feelings. I want truth. After all there is nothing gained but personal pride.

Frankly I'd enter both. I really don't see anything about either that I would change or could comment as being wrong with either. The only thing some may not like is these both don't follow the rule of 3rd's but for the lizard you can't really change the crop. If the picture holds up you might want to crop some of the top and left side of the butterfly shot. Get the subject out of the center and get rid of some of the highlights on the top edge.

Peter Zack · 05-18-2008, 07:24 PM

Actually lookind at the lizard again you could probably do the same to get rid of some of the blank space. But only if the image has the resolution to keep the sharpness.

Peter Zack · 05-18-2008, 07:26 PM

xyz, Did those 2 get in? That second shot is awesome! An IR I assume?

dws1117 · 05-18-2008, 07:30 PM

I don't like rules.

I do see what you are saying. I think I may be able to get away with the lizard, but probably not the butterfly. I still have the original. Maybe tomorrow I'll play with the crop.

Thank Peter. I appreciate your advice.

I would crop some off the top and left side of the lizard pic. I don't see how anyone wouldn't vote for that one. The butterfly pic is a good one, but also a subject that's pretty common. The lizard in a very unusual pic which is why it caught my eye and technically it's perfect

CagomoC · 06-03-2008, 01:02 AM

I think this could be one of best work, I've only been taking pictures for about 2 months now.

dws1117 · 06-05-2008, 05:42 AM

WOO HOO finally got one accepted! It's taken a while.

My PPG page.

You linked to the recent additions. Here's the link to your page: PENTAX Photo Gallery

I was actually invited when they were in the beta of setting the gallery up. There was one day on Photographyvoice.com that every Photo of the Day winner was taken by a Pentax camera. It got Pentax's attention and they invited all the Pentax users to participate in the Beta. I don't participate there as much as I used to. Their selection process takes forever, and I think it a little biased to all pentax equipment.

My gallery is in the link in my signature.

I can't figure out how to get the link to my photos on Pentax Photo Gallery for some reason. I've tried to copy the link as I do all other links I embed but that one just doesn't seem to work. Is there a trick to it?

When you logon to the artist page (where you upload your photos) there's a link that points directly to your page. It should look something like this:
