Thanks Allan - not the first time I've been called odd by any meansHi Elaine, well done for trying something different, unlike myself, both work for me I think I prefer the second one as the first one is a little to odd
Mouth - great ideas and both work for me, but I feel the second works just a little better for me.
2 great ideas in a week that could be so predictable.
Picture 2 for me also as my fav of the 2 and an early contender for my picture of the week
I am with the majority above here. Second image works better. A great interpretation of the theme.
Two nice interpretations this week Elaine, both work for me
Ha ha I can still just about get my foot up to my mouth, but I certainly couldn't manage to take a selfie at the same time, so it was handy to have a model available!I like both of them Elaine, good interpretations of the theme. Last time I was able to get my foot in my mouth was when I was about 6 months old, although I've put it there metaphorically many times
Thanks Susie. I know what you mean - I'm still enjoying the photography, but have to admit that I'm finding the feedback part really daunting with all the extra participants this yearHi Elaine .... great ideas for mouth ...the first one does look a bit odd, but sometimes odd works. Zip is an excellent idea too.
I'm just about keeping up ...not sure if I have last years enthusiasm ....I must try harder
Thanks d00d. Yup - and he even gets to choose between fingers or toesExcellent stuff Elaine I do hope the poor boy is getting his 5 a day
I gave up worrying about the years ago ElaineThanks for the comments. Cobra, from the other replies, it looks as though you and I both should start worrying about how our brains work
Thanks DK. I was so engrossed in cropping it to make sure that the on/off swich at the top was dead centre and the glasses straight, that I didn't notice I'd cropped that bit off the bottom until I'd already done a load of pp cleaning up the bg and by then I couldn't be bothered starting againHaaaaaa that's excellent
Love this, a real good fun image (Shame the base/Mouth is slightly clipped, it doesn't distract from the image though )... but liking the funky colour of the image that the glasses bring
Thanks Bob, looking at the thumbnails made me think of Borat!Like that! Made me think of Woody Allen!
HI Elaine
Vertical....sneaking a juxtaposition in there.....like it , original worked well enough, as per others I did'nt see the poster until it was mentioned , was to busy looking at the writing one chimney
Machine.......I can see why you added the shades but I love the shape of those machines on their own , they have a kind of mini cute robot look that I like
Close -up ....last one for me, little chap seems to enjoy posing for the camera
So....how many holidays do you have each year
I do like 'Machine', and very clever getting the focus on the glasses when it would have been so much easier to focus on the machine behind.
Machine ... cool .... Floyd psychedelia.
Thanks all. I thought it might be a bit too weird, but I'm glad others seem to get itMachine, that's funky and scary in equal measures.
Nice idea.
Cheers.
Thanks Sarah. I did try a few wider shots, but it just seemed to make the lighting even harder to get right than using the macro/close up format and meant I had two backgrounds to deal with - the white plate and what it was sitting onSounds like playing with food wasn't all that much fun in the end . . . but the PP is flawless.
I genuinely can't see the work that's gone into it and you've made it look easy.
I wonder if it may have had more impact if you'd gone wider and included the whole plate in frame for a bit of context though.
