Allan Bell 1,681 Posted April 11, 2014 Sheila I think you are going to have quite a job on your hands selecting the finalists looking at the foregoing. Would it not have been easier on yourself to have had either abstract OR minimalism? They are two different subjects after all. Arn't they? Allan A concerned friend.

Reimar 350 Posted April 11, 2014 Some stunning images here, this will indeed be tough to judge. I like to go through my back catalogue to see what I have - and I do love abstracts. However, one thing I could use more of, is inspiration. If everyone needed to produce new images, that may kick my butt into gear. It would also level the playing field for those with smaller collections. On the down side, people in the sin bin may not be able to play. Just a thought. I've attached my Alamy captions, and used the Alamy images so we're all working from the same image size.

Would it not have been easier on yourself to have had either abstract OR minimalism? They are two different subjects after all. Arn't they? Allan A concerned friend. It's fine Allan. A couple of years back, I was part of the jury of a photo comp based in California and I had to mark a score out of 5, of about 1,000 images. Hopefully it won't come to that on Alamy.

NYCat 1,589 Posted April 29, 2014 Ann, I was curious about this interesting image so I searched for it and it doesn't come up for me. Not under the Alamy number or if I do an Advanced Search and look at your new images. It must be new with that "E". The only other time that happened to me was one of the images on the Search page that turned out to be deliberately kept out of the USA. That can't be the case for your image as you are here and have obviously been able to see it. Paulette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
