Wasn't sure how to explain without sounding like an idiot...

Best way to explain it is I felt funny posting my work on a forum I own. If I were a visitor, and I saw the admin(s) filling the queue with their own work, I would think they were fishing for yes-men.

That said, I know none of you fellers (and you, dear Dana.) are yes-men/women. I feel like I risk offending with my comments here, sorta wish I had resisted the impulse to post in the first-place, but hey, if I had that kinda control over my impulsivity and hyperactivity...

I will leave this post up for a day, then remove it. If I offended any of you by deleting the threads in which you offered criticism, I humbly apologize.

Likely story. I think you're a wus.   :mrgreen:

ps I liked the color, motion, and  feel of the shots.

I think the lady in pink series worked well with all three pics together.  It showed how contagious Salsa can be.

Craig,

I think Bill Gibson is on the right track.  You should post one photo a week with the heading "All right. ... Tell me what you really think".  javascript:emoticon(':oops:')
javascript:emoticon(':oops:')

You seem to the kind of guy who can take it and besides, I liked your photos.  javascript:emoticon(':D')
javascript:emoticon(':D')

I don't see why you should be any less self indulgent than the rest of us.   Also, people need something to hone their knives on.  I've been meaning to post something here to give people a crack at me, but I haven't shot anything new that is worthwhile for about a month.

I agree, Craig - no need to exclude yourself, especially since this isn't a contest or anything like that.  You're as entitled as anyone to get constructive feedback on your photos!
