[SI] I miss...

The ones who have abandoned the Shoot-In certainly include a few who
were capable of making good shots that actually satisfied the brief.
No-one could say that of those who remain.

It defies logic to take a mere snapshot in your local area and then
claim that it represents "Local Culture". But that's the nature of
the SI; the blind leading the blind, and no sign of any improvement,
in fact quite the opposite.

Ah, Tony, me old cock sparrow! We gotta look into getting you laid.

But as always, your comments are nothing if not perspicacious!

And they're not perspicacious...

Could never say it of you.

Coming from someone who takes a mediocre snapshot of a house, submits
it under the brief "Local Culture" and then has to explain the
photograph at great length, several times over, your comment is
nothing less than hilarious!

Your problem is that you never remotely understood the brief, and
after all that turgid explanation, it is clear that you still don't.

Apparently it is not enough for you just to take mediocre snapshots
for the SI, they also have to be irrelevant to the brief. I really
can't wait for the next SI, to see by how much you have misunderstood
*that* brief!

Congratulations to "Sabineellen" for having the courage to expose your
nonsense, and that of the other contributors.

As I said earlier, there were a few competent SI participants who
could produce good shots that were relevant to the brief. They have
now stopped contributing, and it is easy to see why.

TP why don't you "show" us rather than "tell" us by taking part in the current
SI?

Because I work to a brief every single day, and my
idea of fun does not include taking part in a sham.

It would require that he actually make photographs.
