Strad - I can see we desperately need the return of Flibble... He needs to send you some rubbish pills asap!

You're on a roll at the moment, and are leaving everyone else standing horseless. (is that a mixed metaphor...? I'm off for a lie down in a darkened room to nurse my empty CF card...)

The shapes and colors are wonderful, Endre. I could use a month's supply of rubbish pills myself, Suse (my favorite linux distribution) + the return of Flibble. Well done, Endre.

I particularly like the strong but graduated blue and graceful arch of the outer swath.

Thank you so much, Sue, my dear friend! It is so nice to hear from you. How is the elbow? I hope it is all healed. We miss your beautiful entries. Yes, I think we all miss Fibble. I need to write to him to find out how he's doing. I ran out of "Rubbish Pills" a long while ago but the Llamas drop by every now and then for tea.

Please fill your CF card and share with us.

Fond regards,

Endre

Thanks so much, Jim, my friend! It's always wonderful to hear from you. i'm so glad you llike this.

I wish my supply of Rubbish Pills would be replenished but Matron must have clamped down on Fibble's mobility. As I recall, Ms. Fibble dismembered him on occasion so perhaps she wasn't able to put all the parts together again.

Fond regards,

Endre

Please pardon my ignorance but who is Fibble? What are these Rubbish Pills?

Happy shooting,

No reason to apologize, Yakim. How could you possibly know about Fibble? He used to post frequently and always had the most inventive shots (often masterful put-together self-portraits) coupled with a unique descriptive style. He lives in England. He vanished from posting as suddenly as he appeared. Part of the dialogue he started was an entire scenario about sending me "Rubbish Pills" to cause my photos to decline in quality, thereby giving him a better chance at winning. It's all too long to describe here, but references to the Llamas and to Matron (who kept him safely medicated in his padded cell) were also frequent topics of discussion. All of us "old times" miss him, his brilliant photos, and inspired, entertaining commentary. Here's a link to his website: http://www.flickr.com/photos/51313146@N00/ and here is the link to the one of his winning photos. https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/677103

I hope that helps.

All the best,

Endre

A really good photographer indeed but OTOH, if he'd be here, I'd have one more person in the list: "To send Rubbish Pills ASAP" (currently only you, Mike and Bev are in it). I'll immediately start creating ones and send them to you all. Take one each morning and I'll instantly become a better photographer….

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

WOWOWOWOW! (Better late than never, I hope!)

I just stopped in to see what and who, and found it was you.
Beverly is right. Magnificent!

You've done it again, my friend.

It's awesome.
