Well, I have only judged a half dozen competitions, and have only won
perhaps the same number. I suppose that may make me more dangerous than
knowledgable.
Or, it may actually mean I know what I am talking about.

It may depend on whether you like what I have to say or not.

Fer the love of Mike, Marnie, that's exactly the attitude everyone on this

No. Like you say, the PDML isn't a juried exhibition, there is no place for
photocritisicm here.
It should be as happy a place as you want it to be.
