Thanks Rob.I really like the composition of your Bold image Gary, the socks jump out but there is also enough interest to make me explore the image further. Good attempt
Vertical is simple but bang on theme. I can relate reading with relaxing but I don't think your image conveys this due to the posture, technically a great image though.
Hi JohnVertical is simple but bang on theme. I can relate reading with relaxing but I don't think your image conveys this due to the posture, technically a great image though.
Yes I agree Stan. Was a bit of a cheat really uploading this as the relax image, I took this photo/selfie in an attempt to put into practice what I had been taught a few nights previous by Ian ( named on the cover ) hence the sort of intense look.Relax; he seems to struggling to read whats on the paper rather than relax!
Vertical; Spot on and simple (what the Meerkat says!)
Thanks David. You just made me feel greatHi Gary
It says relax, it says you need to relax. I think it's brilliant ... best bit: you can see the glasses but not the eyes. Really is an amusing image.
Vertical is minimalistic to the extreme. The fact that it's a piece of 2x1 and not just a white line, is applaudable.
Thanks SusieHi Gary ...love the Bold socks..... a great idea.
What a smashing shot for Relax ....I really like it ....a very different unique choice for the theme, that crumpled piece of paper jars a little, but I still love it.
Vertical ...another great one ....minimal but effective
Thanks Lorraine ;-)Hi Gary,
Relax - nice on theme shot. I don't know anything about lighting really, so can't offer any crit, but it gave you some practice.
Vertical - a very much on theme and nicely minimalist
Thank youwow really great idea and image for mouth!
CheersMouth- quality idea and thought haha!
Thanks PhilNice one Gary

Thanks Summer. Yes there are four squares of glass you see the bottom rail in the photo and the top edge is a few inches above my head.great shot for mouth, I like creative shots, it looks a tiny bit cramped but that obviously depends on how much glass you have available
Thanks David. Not very good at converting to mono but you have to try now and again.Brilliant
nice looking conversion ... and I like the tightness of it all.
ANother creepy image!!
Fits the theme and gives me the willies
Thanks Andy. Yes makes me feel a bit nauseous, don't really like looking at it now.Mouth, belter, slight crop of the RHS maybe but apart from that it's a great idea....if a little worrying
Cheers.
Thanks Mr Knight.Hey Gary
Watery - An odd combination to why they would be wet, but it works, nicely lit and the watery look is nice and reflective, nice one
Bold - I kind of see what you were trying to do with this, but I think wearing the socks with the work trousers and shiny shoes would have pulled it off to a greater degree, nowt wrong with the lighting for me
Relax - Liking this one a lot, very unusual, liking the two tone background and the contrast lighting on the figure - very nice
Vertical - OOo minimal and again very effective, good black background too
Mouth - That's great, could do with a tiny straighten on the LHG side, other than that a great fun shot
Thanks Peter.Bold - I really like this. It’s so simple but there’s lots in there. For the theme it’s spot on with those socks. Great shot.
Relax - It’s the lighting that makes this shot including the use of a white and black backdrop. Execution is spot on as is the idea
Vertical - This is so minimalistic that you could sell this to a gallery for a fortune.
Mouth - Good thinking for the theme. I have to say I like the middle of the image but would be tempted to crop out the bright object on the RHS.
Hi AllanHi, mouth is very disturbing but I feel it needs a crop off the RHS, nice unusual take though
