weekly firewireguy 52 / 2024 Week 18 - Straight

Nowt in there for sure! Nice take on the theme :)
 
Nothing better then an empty washing machine! The ironing then becomes a problem.:oops: :$
 
Snappers choice fits the vibrant theme, goes off to rest eyes :)
Empty works and no reflections (y) or have you cropped them out

It's the drying space we really struggle with. I don't know how other people manage. We have 4 airers and also tumble a lot. Means there's no room to breath in the house.

This was just a 50mm lens with the flashgun on the camera pointing straight forward. A small crop to make it more central, but no bad reflections. Had to play with the aperture to get tje brightness under control.

We use a dehumidifier if we use an airer, pretty sure they are much cheaper to run than the tumble drier as well

I have been looking at one of them, but then I needed 2 new tyres. Certainly by the end of the summer I plan on getting one.
 
The guitar shots are great and perfect for vivid.
Empty is spot on too and something I had also considered if our was ever empty for more than a couple mins...
 
Week 17 - Structure

I don't know what these are called, but I call them tree caterpillars and our garden is covered in them.

Ooh, like that! Nice lighting, sensitive treatment.

Thanks. It's amazing what some black paper and some ceiling bounce flash can do.

I took some more that were a bit brighter and had the whites all the way to the right, as it were, but I preferred this muted version.
 
Ooh that's a bit good that is :)
 
A different take on the theme. Love the softness your lighting portrays.

Thank you!

Nicely set up. And certainly fits the theme for the type of structure which nature provides.

Thanks. Had to avoid harsh lighting as I didn't think that'd work at all.

Nice set up, no idea what they are called either.

Thank you. Caterpillar droppings? Nobody knows.
 
Week 18 - Straight

I had a couple of contenders for this week, but I've gone for the photo with the most geometric straight lines in it (and dinosaurs)

Some nice straights there :)
 
All good contenders... I like the dinosaur who looks like he's about to amble into the centre of the shot!
