Good, bad, ugly photos

From Rosemary Shinohara:

Adn.com/opinion has a photo gallery called "Good, bad, ugly" where we invite readers to post photos that show what they like or dislike about Anchorage.

A posting of a mama moose and two little ones in a cul-de-sac came with a note complaining that members of the editorial board, including me, had put up some of the photos. That's true. We were just trying to help it get started. And we may see something we want to post now and then. But the moose-poster is right, it's for readers. So have at it.

They were good pictures, and

They were good pictures, and there's no reason the editorial board can't post.
You're part of Anchorage too, right?

Some of these folks would complain if they were hung with a new rope.
