Denver Beat

IMAGE CAPTION - Another shot taken on street when visiting Denver, this one taking me back to the 50s or 60s--well the "beatnik" era. I love this shot and am wondering what is wrong with it, if that is the case, because it did not garner an acceptance in the PSA PJ exhibit. I thought this would be my best shot. Oh well, maybe it was and I will never know the why nots (no acceptances). Two bongo players, one on the left showing he is off in la-la land with his playing. Fellow in middle contributing some money--and he is either a friend acting as a shill or one of their own and sincerely giving them money. Simple store window offers reflections of the passersby. Hands of both drummers in motion. The litter of their making the place their own on the ground. I think it tells an interesting story. So: what is the problem???

Carol Rogus FPSA - Biography - I bought my first SLR (Pentax) in 1972, progressed to Canon 20 years later, and Canon digital as of February 2006. Joined my first camera club in 1992, PSA in 1993, and have been engaged in the amateur photography whirlwind ever since with clubs, councils, chapters, and PSA. Served as VP and President of my New York City club, Cosmopolitan Chapter Chair, Region Director, PSA Public Relations VP for three terms, originator and chair of the 2004 Cosmopolitan Chapter PT Exhibition, and most recently 2006 PSA PT Exhibition Chair. A native New Yorker, I moved permanently to Southeast Florida in July 2005, a great idea whose time had come! Traded my view of downtown Manhattan (as you may know, including the World Trade Center and 9/11) for white ibis periodically breakfasting on my lawn. I now serve on the boards of both the Everglades Chapter and my camera club. Having traveled extensively since 1963 covering much of Europe, Asia, and northern Africa in addition to the United States, I found Photo Travel a natural. I have been generating and presenting cultural slide shows since 1996 in addition to judging club and council competitions and PSA exhibitions. I was quickly hooked when a PJ devotee convinced me to try this subject as well. With the move to Florida, I am now embracing wildlife, mostly wading birds—yet another joy. Absolutely LOVE digital work with Elements 4.
