Subject: [OM] Re: ADITL - Volume 1
Well, Zuiks, since I primed the pump with the msg way below, the response
has been more than overwhelming. I got about 20 more msgs, all positive,
couple sample excerpts below. Names withheld to protect the guilty.

etc, etc. So, to quote one last members' msg "Let the games begin."
So we'll start with the Day in the Life theme. No contest, no judging.
Critiquing encouraged after photos up unless photo'er requests no critique.
And, since there's a yearly solar system event arriving soon, perhap it's in
the stars that we should start there. So how about the first ADITL take
place on the eve of the Summer Solstice, Sunday, June 20. From 00:01 AM to
midnight, local time, on the 20th. Shoot whatever you want, but could be
nice if the subject was related somehow to the end of Spring/Start of
Summer.
After culling your best shot from the bunch (Or,maybe you only shoot 1,
whatever's your style) get it digitized and off to me within, say, 3 weeks
(that'd be Sunday July 11 aka 'World Population Day') and I'll try to get
the page up within a week, 2 at the most.
So, there it is then. Pick up the gauntlet and use up some silver and let's
see what us geezers (you too, Acer) with Olys can do.
George
