q.g._de_bakker Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Maybe one time zone could be appointed as the time zone this thread is in?<br>If, say, it would be CST, i know i could post a day's image (or not need to worry about noone posting a day's image) until 7 a.m. the next day, someone in Alaska only until 9 p.m. of the day in question. Something like that.<br><br>Great idea, Mike, this thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 <p>Photo.net is used by people from all over the world, and while Central Somewhere Time will work for some people, it will not be of much relevance to others elsewhere in the world. My view is that a preoccupation with timezones relating to this thread would be a distraction which could lead to inconsistencies and headaches, without helping to remove confusion for potential posters who live in remote and oft forgotten parts of the world like Europe, Africa and Asia. Let's not forget, that when it is 'today' where we are standing, it may be tomorrow somewhere else . . . and occasionally, in some parts of the world, it may still be yesterday.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
q.g._de_bakker Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 That's why a time zone would be a great help, Alan.<br>Here, it's already tomorrow, so would i be too late? How long should i wait before posting a last minute image so the day does not go without? One minute before... uhm... midnight? That would be one minute before someone else's midday. Now i have taken the trouble to look up the time difference between my time zone and CST Mike mentioned, i do know how late would be too late. So if we could agree that this thread lives in CST, that would be settled. No inconsistencies, no confusion. Midnight CST is midnight CST anywhere on the world. As opposed to just midnight.

astral Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 <p>Q.G. If you really want a time zone there is a perfectly good, internationally recognised and much used one that has been around since 1960 - UTC . . aka GMT.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
q.g._de_bakker Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Any time zone will do, Alan. As long as we all know which one it is.<br>It would make perfect sense though if that single zone is the one used for the time stamp PNet puts on posts.

Mike Gammill Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks, Q.G. A couple of years back I tried to start a "picture a day" thread for a year in the No Words forum, but it didn't last long. And in that forum I would have only been allowed one photo, which I used on first day of the year. I'm very pleased with the participation we're having here in this thread. I have thoroughly enjoyed the photos as well. Perhaps if there's any uncertainty about the time of posting we could include in our post our local time that we posted our image at. Great work, everyone, and great fun. Looking forward to seeing the next image. @James- HC110 dilution B is my favorite developer for Plus-X. I find that I get box speed, great tones, and fine grain. Still got a good supply of Plus-X under cold storage and plenty of HC110 so I'm set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astral Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 <p>This abandoned church is at Colston Basset in Nottinghamshire (England). Parts of the church date from Anglo-Saxon times, but some of it is Norman and it was variously enlarged and partially demolished over succeeding centuries until the mid 19th Century when it was replaced by a Victorian church situated nearby. The village is better known for its dairy which produces blue or white Stilton cheese, and which (by law) is only produced here and in a few surrounding villages. Minolta Autocord & Reala.
