Dear Art Rock, dear Hennie,
I feel honored and happy to have been awarded the membership of the January Golden Lens Club.
I thank you very much for this New Year present!.
But I would like to thank you for two other things:
- one is the concept of your group, which I discovered through the wise recommendation from Rainer Blankermann a.k.a knips2007(Rainer).
You are addressing what I call the "Awesome syndrome" whereby we know someone appreciates your shot but not why and how. I feel it is a "hit and run" approach which often leaves me frustrated...
- the other one is that I sensed immediately, I mean within just a few hours, that you ARE moderating the group. I appreciate awards but I value more the comments you made about my comments. It makes me think: "With comments that are as unorthodox in style as they are effective"... What is unorthodox in my style? And then I wish to read the other comments made by members on the pictures that I commented. So you gently force me (wrong word, you invite me) to go further and deeper.
I feel really happy for these two reasons.
I hope to contribute in the future, with some pictures and some words.
Best regards
Jean-Michel VOLAT

Thanks smiles4angels. We hand out QCA's for strings of five comments, not isolated ones. JDAC is receiving one for the string including the one you refer to, but members of the admin team like JDAC are not mentioned in the thread (unless all five are exceptional).

Special mention:
What I said yesterday about Andy_57, I could copy paste for batedbreath: always a pleasure to encounter these eloquent well considered comments, be it whilst scanning for the group, or even better on your own shot. Another special mention for the extraordinary high quality of the five comments left after this beautiful autumn shot:

That was quite a scan. Apart from a number of trouble makers, there were 11 QCA's, a few who might have won it had not someone deleted a picture and their fifth comment, and half a dozen that came very close to QCA's. And I am happy to say, no lame comments!
Before I go to the new members of the January Golden Lens Club, the traditional repeat mention when it somes to these two: andy_57 (twice in one scan...) and batedbreath. They get their repeat mention in the thread for the exceptional comments left after:
Andy_57's great duck shot:

batedbreath's marvellous flower:

It's almost like I've never been away. It is a shame I couldn't get the Internet in North Wales over the New Year as some uninspiring weather would have slipped away quite pleasantly by contributing to this group.
Always a pleasure to comment on the great variety of interesting pictures posted up as I know I shall be repaid in kind. Thanks to everyone who makes it happen.
