You may be right.... I remember the first time we saw this shot. I thought he looked like he was flashing then, and he still does.

not sure what you are not seeing in the association...what I see is man, shape of hat, eyes. the association is simply some element of a photo;theme, a view, a color or opposite. etc. that can be seen in the next. It is for me a creative way of relating/linking one photo to the next. Not sure how to explain it cause there are many many ways to see the next link.

[snapapple]

The green hat is the association. I get it.

But, did you notice we now have birds? Rutt tried to break it up. Yeah, the expression on that lady sure matches Harry's bird expression, but by the time I uploaded my bird shot to my smugmug account, I had to post it anyway. Sorry Rutt. My bird has kind of the same expression anyhow. :thumb

Hey Mike,

He's a native of the Viera Zoo anyhow. They had a small butterfly exhibit awhile ago. I was replying to pathfinder but you got in first. I considered deleting it but figured if you could stretch your shot into a response to PF's shot then I could go that extra mile too. :lol4

Amazingly fun game! Much more fun to watch than a certain game that's been on the tele lately... something about a laundry competition? http://dgrin.com/images/smilies/headscratch.gif

[wholenewlight]

So the game thread is up to 1300 images.

Now, if you spent a mere 15 seconds viewing each picture in the thread, that means you've spent (wasted) 5.42 hours at your computer screen - just playing the association game. :scratch

Now use this formula: 5.42 X {enter your hourly pay here - or what you believe your hourly time to be worth, if unemployed} = $

Wow, I better get to work - I'd have made a considerable dent in my new Nikon D200 down payment if it weren't for this silly game.:rofl

[cabbey]

So is there a hiden contest in this to see who can post the most shots of Andy? or fellow dgrinners?

Oh, and wholenewlight, there are entire pages I've spent less than 15 seconds on... a quick swipe of the mouse wheel to see.. bird, bird, birds, bird, bird, birds, gee will ya look at that... a bird, birds, three women in bikinis.... I swear this thread will put the most millage on my pour mouse wheel faster than anything.

[David_S85]

I'll tell you what I think about this dgrin game.... it is throwing off the calculations for the dgrin posting contest of when Andy will post his 10,000th post.

Now, I know I have calculated his average posts per day and his # of days posting here for #10K to the exact date, minute and second (even local N.Y time), but I'll tell you, this game thing is going to warp my otherwise precise calculations and deviate them by probably a few days off. I hadn't figured on this dgrin game thread at all. Next time I'll be more careful to include this or other variables.

Yes, I know that I can not legally win that contest being a moderator, but it is the principle of the thing afterall.

There. I feel better. OK, I'll go quietly now.

Now that's a great shot Rutt ..... and looks like a good meal to boot :D

[GREAPER]

What a great shot:

http://dehmphoto.smugmug.com/photos/16901931-S.jpg

Thanks Rutt

It is a scan from a B n W neg when I was still shooting film.

I liked the action and the light streaming through the dust. I wish the cowboy in the back didn't have a video camera, it dates the shot.

This was at a rodeo in Cody WY, just outside yellowstone about 4 years ago.

[cabbey]

In other game threads like this, when commenting on the game post (in our case the picture) in the game thread, it's common to at least put the comment number in the discussion thread... or some folks even do a link to it. This makes it easier when folks are catching up later to see the correlation and see which pic of rutts looks good enough to eat for example. (not that it was hard to figure in that case, but some others have taken a while to track down).

Thanks.

That was awhile back, sorry for not reading. Something should flag us, I never would have dreamed someone was "talking" to me.

Those are photos taken at a visit to my daughter's a year ago. I like the photo a lot.

One is my granddaughter, the other is a friend, after ballet lessons. Not great photo, but just something I like about the unusual, un artistic, number of "two", I like the way they are both against the wall..........etc. May be a quirk of the moment for me.

However, I don't know why I posted it when I did. maybe it was "kids", maybe it was out of turn. an accident, you know, but it is so accessible under family, I could have put it back unless some others were posting at the same time.

Yeah, birdman, best thing is to just go with it: colors, or subject, whatever you want to change it to.

Sorry for not noticing, Andy.

ginger (I really would have liked to have posted yesterday, Turkey day here in the states! In fact, took first photos since getting my camera back, maybe "candids/family snaps", but kind of photography. Plus I had photos for the theme from Dixie's visit and couldn't get to them.

So lately I've been unable to keep up with y'all, so I'm scrolling through a few days worth of pics at a time (and really, deeply, colorfully swearing at dgrin's concept of "read" and "unread"). Doing this I've found a rather entertaining game within the game... trying to guess (a) what the poster thought tied their shot to the previous, and (b) how many other ways you can tie them together, or (c) what the relationship between the shooter and the subject was.

For example, between posts 2090 and 2091 there is (a) the obvious facial similarities between Jim Cantore and the pooch... but there is also (b) things which should be outlawed, and (c) I'm guessing producer and host for Storm Stories, and I hope, passerby and dog looking for pity.

Namely for b I'm thinking pronged collars and allowing journalists into disaster zones solely for the purpose of "filing a report." (not to say that's the only reason wxwax and Cantore were there... but generally speaking, what I've heard from folks on the ground in nola that's about all any of the media were doing.)

I happen to admire Jim Cantore. I host on my private servers the chat rooms for Storm2k, a large community of avid hurricane watchers, meteorologist and enthusiast. During the hurricanes that chat room is an intense serious place and most are also tuned in to TWC etc. There are many professionals - military and civilian also.
I associated the intense worry and concern in his face with the same expression of the Vizula dog I took at a dog show. I've wanted to play the game for a long time, but I'm just not fast enough or I don't have good enough pics to post. It's fun and I get many laughs just reading this thread.

who's interested in photo telephone? that is, where from pic to pic there is a strong connection but subtle change:):

or photo story? as in, the pics move along a defined-on-the-fly theme or story (hence the relation)

maybe photo inspiration? meaning, pics connected by a shot they inspired (to take or post, I suppose)

possibly photo random? give em hell and confuse the audience with something seemingly totally unconnected

okay, so maybe this is less of a suggestion list and more of a breakdown of what I see in phassoc (pronounced 'fass ock')... nice pics all but you are warping my mind - and my mind is already thoroughly warped

flapping, crapping, chirping, squawking,
only parrots do the talking
swooping, preying, nesting, mating,
can't find one ever sleeping

from dinosaurs they did evolving
from felines they need be fleeing

Lovely exposure (http://rutt.smugmug.com/photos/39472699-L.jpg), Rutt.

And Mr. Mueller, you have some nice work. (http://mhj.smugmug.com/photos/6070240-M.jpg)

For those of us "attaching" images in the association thread you'll notice (see any of mine) I start my post with "/" some use "..." before attaching and posting. I've never gotten an error message.

I've always wondered, you have a SmugMug acct - how come you "attach?"

[wholenewlight]

What kind of "bird" is this? :D

An anorexic one. :huh Definitely in need of some pineapple pizzas. :D

I guess because I don't want to eat up a lot of space at SM with myriad photos I don't ordinarily want others to see.

I have wondered about you and others who always link. You must keep a truck load of images at SM.

Perhaps I need to organize my site better and use additional "hidden" galleries for storage?

[Andy]

Thanks Kent :bow :bow (http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=210029&postcount=2287) great rescue from all those ducks :rolleyes

Ang - SmugMug=Dgrin=disk storage no matter how you slice it :D

you can do it either way I was just wondering :D

Yes, I have many galleries that are "private" on my SmugMug site.. and you can still link from them.

Is that your primary storage location? Do you still maintain lots of folders full of images on your computer? You have a lot of duplication?

[Angelo]

Hey Sid, your two images, #2299 & 2301 are primo!

Angelo -

Primary: 500Gb HD on my Mac G5
Secondary: External 250Gb HDs, firewire attached (Nightly automated backups)
Tertiary: DVDs burned monthly
Quarternary: My stuff that's on SmugMug

:wave Thanks, Angelo. 2301 is thanks to the pro Andy set-up at Yosemite - he showed us the shot. It made my brain hurt to think about landscapes the way he did - I was shooting far too tight beforehand.

I had been trying to do shots of this event called "Dance Theater" - big dance and multimedia event at a local high school. I was trying to stop the action on stage. I've shot this event for a number of years and had good success. But very dark sets this year! Finally I gave up on stopping the action and tried to capture the feeling of movement.

Thanks!

Since we seem to have moved to fishy images, I have to admit that my #2382 is not a fish you'd find in any ocean.http://www.digitalgrin.com/images/smilies/ne_nau.gif

This guy was hanging from the ceiling of the New York Museum of Natural History. I cut him out from his background and added a blue-green gradient background. I hadn't noticed, when I uploaded the image to Smugmug a few weeks ago, that new background shows bands of color rather than a smooth gradient. I'll have to take a closer look in Photoshop. :scratch

John,Dan,Sid... these BW's are excellent!

Sid..Was this just a high ISO conversion or did you do something else in post? I love it..

Thanks Eric. It was high ISO plus a little PS work. I was using fast glass but there wasn't much light.

Stan, very nice (http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=216018&postcount=2495), I love the symmetry.

Harry, a bird shot (http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=216124&postcount=2500) I can like! Great moment, lovely bokeh and colors.

[wxwax]

Nee, lovely framing (http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=216350&postcount=2512), that horsie has great presence.

[rutt]

Great one, Ben. That's how the Xmas season has me feeling just about now. (And I can tell I'm not the only one.)

Really, great moment, great framing, really really funny moment. Gotta love it.
