Sandy Vongries Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Lets get stuck in the past with NW. Actually, a motivating comment. I still dig on occasion, but try to post mostly from recent work, or even shoot to meet the topic just prior to posting. Adds to the fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 N/WN is about folks sharing photos which is great, however, if you would like to make a comment about a photo...well, you cannot. W/NW allows you to do so. Just seems more flexible to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 if you would like to make a comment about a photo...well, you cannot. Not an issue, for shots I really like, or have a question about that interests me, I'll start a Private Conversation. Only shortfall, is that others who might be interested are not included. If it is really an a need, be easy enough to run a parallel Conversation with the same title as the No Words. No big thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Vongries Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Allen, now I understand - you suffered excessive exposure to Barney. Like second hand smoke, I was only exposed through my children, and that rarely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 "I was only exposed through my children, and that rarely. "Sandy. Sandy, you are in denial. Open up embrace...Barney loves you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 We actually had Barney targets at the shooting range at the height of his popularity. You could always tell who had children -- they bought and used them with enthusiasm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Herbert Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Come on...a few words on a W/NW what is the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Common on...a few words on a W/NW what is the problem. Actually wouldn't much bother me, but it might go the direction of Philosophy :D with pages of murky prose. At the moment, the rule & practice is No Words, which even now some of us transgress.

Allen Herbert Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 "but it might go the direction of Philosophy :D with pages of murky prose" Sandy. Methinks maybe just at best you might get the odd comment...if someone can be bothered...mostly they cannot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Herbert Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) Philosophy folk have their own language of talk.... it takes a bit of discerning for the average Joe. However,, if you read between the lines, its not that difficult to escape from the muddle of prose and the play with words, if you look for their essence of thought. Sort of like a tax request cloaked in innuendos. Edited August 27, 2017 by Allen Herbert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidTriplett Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 At the moment, the rule & practice is No Words, which even now some of us transgress. The forum description used to allow for some minor verbiage, whether to note the equipment used, or for similar, very brief messages. I see the current instructions no longer include this caveat. Too bad. Nobody's dinged me for a few minor words now and again, so I'll continue doing so in a thoughtful and discreet manner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidTriplett Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Barney makes a good target. But, for me, I would thoroughly enjoy zeroing in on Inspector Gadget's nose. Just thinking about this gets that stupid jingle going in my head, and brings back all the familiar anxiety of endless, pitiless, pointless, repetitive... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJT Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) David, please allow me to clarify that when one submits a photograph to the NWF a concise sentence or two regarding the submitted photograph, the technique or equipment used, or the subject is certainly permitted. What is not permitted are comments and discussions on the submissions. When the new PhotoNet software came on-line the posting guidelines were no longer visible; this has unfortunately created much confusion. I have tried to explain what is permitted and what is not to preserve the spirit of the NWF in a sticky thread at the top of the forum. I hope this helps. Regards.

dcstep Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 NW is a challenge to me. I like to see if I can find something in my archive that fits every thread on the first page. Rarely happens, but it's fun to try and it gets me thinking about new things that I should shoot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaellinder Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 There are almost no words that convey the pleasure I receive from participating in this forum. Very punny, Jon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
