A YAPPIE sucker is given to a commentor for either a particular comment or a history of great comments. The Out of Focusers of the Suck League are proud to announce the awarding of the YAPPIE sucker to Louis.

"I'd also like to nominate Louis for a YAPPIE. He has a long history of providing some very constructive comments to users, mostly at random though also when requested. He's participated in a couple of the 30 day projects and shared a wealth of information on lighting/composition/editing and such, as well as providing encouragement. He's recently stopped by the Minimal Editing 7-day project and provided comments and advice. And on one of my "just in my portfolio" shots, he offered the following, which is pretty much dead-on:

In some thread you recently said something about your history of scientific training (sorry for the paraphrasing, or if I blundered completely). Many of your photos hint at that for me, with the regularlity of patterns offset by something inherently random and unique, like the trunk and branches against the wall here, or the interesting shapes at bottom framed by the brown swath from which the natural shapes ascend. Also your formal cropping choices bring this home for me, here, as well as in your recent free study entry. There's a real beauty hinted at in your understanding of patterns both regular and natural."
