Congratulations to all who entered :thumbs:. Final scores will be posted up very shortly. I entered this month, but I refrained from voting, as I was in an unfair position of seeing who's entry was whose.

:woot:
Kind Regards
Marcel

Hey Grendel I must say your spring was great, how'd you get the orange?

Thanks Renee :)

I photographed it against a white background with a 2 (ish) second exposure. I moved a red light (red film over a Maglight torch) over the spring to try and contain the shadow and get a strong red lighting effect. Then in Photoshop CS3 I used the cross process preset curve to turn the red lighting on white into orange on red. I had great fun doing this one! Glad you like it :)

Congrats on winning, must admit i didn't pick any of the top three this month, personally didn't like the photoshopping around the sheep, the shadow and white plastic tag in the daffodils, I nearly nearly picked 1st place but would have preferred some or all of the flowers in focus as well as or instead of the trees. my 2p. Hey what do i know anyway lol, well done to all anyway, was a tough theme.

Mohain
08-06-2007, 16:31
i agree the plastic is distracting. I'm not I know what you mean about the photoshopping around the sheep ***?

ppp
08-06-2007, 16:43
The green background looks shopped in, there seems to be a cutout almost round the sheep i didn't like

hehe - well as normal I ended up using my back-up shot. Which was taken as a random shot without much thought :( I didnt even shoot it in RAW and the edge of the leaves were all burnt and stuff :( So that shot has had a fair bit of work on it - but couldnt clone out the white tag thing!

Im still working on updating the year table.

My new MS Office CD has been scratched, so at the moment I'm running an older (incompatible) version of Office. Grrrrrrr.

Congrats guys. I would have voted, but couldn't figure out how :thinking:

You need to just pm your top 3 votes in order of preference to whoever is running the round, in this case Marcel.
Would be nice if more peeps voted, looks like only 26? people voted this month :(

Well done to everyone that entered :thumbs::thumbs:

Grendel

Would be nice if more peeps voted

:agree:

Yeah it's a shame there only seems to be a minority who take the time to vote on the comps. Sometimes it can take a lot of thought and effort to submit an entry :|

Ewan
