Images, one can say: &quot;this image is <i>essential</i>, it somehow represents the <i>essence</i> of black &amp; white photography-art. <b>RULES are simple, but indispensable:</b> 1. If you join the group, you decide not to post and run, but to <b>comment and award <i>two</i> other images</b> from the pool - as you like others to do with yours. 2. You need no invitation to join the group, but <b>ONLY awarded photos</b> will stay in the pool. This means: <i><b>to have a photo in the pool, your photo must be awarded on first 3 pages by another member with the black and white - the essence-award !</b></i> Images reaching page 4 without any award will be deleted. 3. only b&amp;w photos, no porn, no violent sceneries in any way. Use the following code to <b>comment</b> on two other photos in the pool: <b><i>Simply copy and paste this code in the comment box (To copy: highlight the code the hold Ctrl key and C key. To paste it in the comment box: hold the Ctrl key and the V key):</i></b> --------------------------------------------------------------- &lt;b&gt;Your excellent photo shows the &lt;i&gt;essence&lt;/i&gt; of black and white!
