Hey I'd like to join your group.
GREECE is where the Olympics originated!
Where nude athletic photographers used to shoot nude women.

I was one years old when my parents brought me to the US from Budapest Hungary.
They always ate a lot of Greecy food.

I'll shoot anything from Alpha to Omega, I won't always be a Mystery man.
At the Calgary-GTG/WWorkshop I recently shot a model ( JacquelineV ) with Greek Columns for a background

Then justamistere as an aspiring Greek poet, you are in!
07/11/2008 12:34:18 PM · #34
Lol, I'm totally confused now. At least we have a full team though! You forgot Iraklis. I have been in contact with him and he is definitely still part of the team. Don't know about his brother kolasi though. I'm still at work. Have to check my email when I get home.

So as I understand it, Team Greece is now:

Lykofos - Captian - Greek
Iraklis - Greek
ambaker- watched My Big Fat Wedding
Zigomar- Has seen Greece on TV
Jammur - Has eaten Greek Food
metatate - his name is a musuem which holds Greek Art work
rhommel - who will never be forgotten (if he reminds me)

No sorry he is not in the team anymore. I contacted him several times and heard nothing back, so asumed he was out, rather like the other 5 team members that flaked.

You have a full team now, BearMusic has joined the band and Ihave to say, that you have a very very strong team now, an exceptinal team if I may say so.

Good luck to you all , I am proud to have you play with us on the Olympics II

TEAM GREECE This is your Team.

Good Luck and Best Wishes for the Games

:(

Iraklis actually just posted in this thread early this morning as well, confirming his presence / fact that he made an entry. Seems wrong to remove him from the team.

oh crap I suppose I should tell you know!!!

Right!, enter really bloody good photographs into the Open challenges, same as last time Bear.
07/11/2008 12:52:45 PM · #40
I am sorry, I didnt see that post, and I have emailed several times to ask him if he will be on board and hadn't heard back. He wil have to be the substitute for you team. I do apoligize Ira.

But after all the work that has gone into seeding this team, I can not change it now

Are the current open challenges in play? I got a 6ish score in "weathered"...

yes, why not, If you have entered this week, then you top 5 scores will count. that way you are on an even keel with the rest of the games. If you have not got 5 entrys in, then I am afraid you will get 0. But I do know that there are at least 3 of you that have entrys and I do know that they are beating the rest of the teams all ready

To the Team Captain,

It is your job to insipre your fellow team mates for the next 8 weeks. If someone is brave enough to make up team shirts that will help with your score board standing out. As team captain, it is your job to rally 5 entrys a week. Team members, it is your job to send your team captain your private emails so that he can communicate with you all. You may pass along tips and ideas and ideas on how and what could be better in photographs. This way you will all learn from each other and the lines of talk are open.

I am off to attack the gin bottle some more after this day!

Alrighty then....

Geia sou!! (pronounced like "yasou" - means Hello) Welcome aboard to the Team Greece!! The former ghost ship now has a full crew!

If everyone can either post it up here or PM me with your email addresses, I will compile the email list and send out a group email so that we all have each others email addresses. That way we can discuss in private via email any challenge ideas, get input on how we can improve our submissions / get help choosing between the photos we took for the challenge, etc. I can also look into securing a private team forum from somewhere if everyone thinks that will be easier for team communication than email.

Lot of very talented photographers in here, looking forward to this competition!

I'll also see if I can figure out the team shirts thing when I get home from work. I have a good idea for them.

Okay a poet I'll be as I go shooting from sea to sea.
I ain't no fool I'll shoot pictures to make them drool.
The earth is round the sky is blue my aim is a ribbon or two.
Wings of birds fast they flutter are no match to my fast shutter.
Once all will see I'm not such a mystery just a Mister E.

A picture is worth a thousand words and a thousand words is worth a picture.

Julie did you say aspiring or perspiring to be a Greek Poet?

Efkaristo!
(no idea how to spell)

Well, I'm off to a great start supporting the team.
My "weathered" is bombing and I am stymied by Recipes.
While I make a mean moussaka, its not very photogenic.

After checking my score, they must really be having a bad day...

Greek Team Jersey design is finished. That took longer than expected to finish! What do you guys think?

It's a classic historical greek phrase, accompanied by a spartan helmet & spear. If you have never heard the phrase, here is the explanation: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molon_labe

I'll make up one of those team banners with everyone's shirt/name on it tomorrow. Anyone want a particular number?

J, if you go over to the Joker team, they have stolen everybodies links and put them on one page, it was very helpful to have them on one page like that. I don't think that they realized what a helpful bunch they would be.

Also, BearMusic, is an amazing cook, so i am sure between the links and him you will find something to shoot
