Who is the most underrated photographer on DPC? Who's photos take up all the space on your favorites list, yet have no ribbon to their honor? It is about time that those people were recognised!

pitsaman has two ribbons but they are kinda old now. Think that counts...

faidoi one of the most involved individuals here...

Paige has one of the most incredible portfolios I've seen here.

Ami Yuy uses the same camera that I started out with. She also has a good eye and raw talent.

grigrigirl has three ribbons all yellow and an awesome portfolio also.

Well that's a start...

TC, i definitely agree with your choices...

Ditto. I just got a call that makes me think that my work will call me in so I wanted to get some posted...

You may be right; he does have a fairly high average vote rating. However, his lack of ribbons is an atrocity that must be remedied right away. :)

Aw shucks. Thanks. Haven't really had too much time to really submit a lot lately, but just renewed my membership and plan to enter some this summer. Ribbons aren't really my goal here, but one would be nice in the future.

I was so busy going through your extensive list that I didn't even notice the compliment! Thank you. You also would fit in well on my list, an oversight that has been corrected! [edit: LOL I went to add you to my favorites and you're already there :-O ]

I completely agree there! You have STRONG portfolio and your work is astounding (not to mention inspiring). Not only that, you are really involved, and on top of that, you are just a real cool guy. Need any more justification?

I think there are a lot of members that are under 20 that have a terrific style. hsteg and tranquil and kondor come to mind. (sorry not sure how to do the link thing)
I can't believe how good they are.
Thanks heida

Yeah, hsteg is quite a stud. He could run circles around me (photographicaly) and he is even four years younger than myself, and I am young as it is. He is definetely a rising star and I think could be somre REAL competition here before too terribly long.
