Loving the round table and the tone you've given it during pp. The ripple shots are very artistic and work well especially with the complimentary colours.
Hi, Mark, #1 is good: well composed and processed.
But, it's #2 for me. Loving the simplicity, and especially the colours which work really well together. It has a real 3D feel to it, almost as if I could fall into the hole.
Cheers.

Hi Mark, another two great shots this week! The triptych is great, as usual your processing is excellent and suits the shot. I like the ripple shot and again its well taken. If I had to choose I would go for the round table!!
Thursday and only 3 comments? It's not as if it's nearly Christmas or anything is it?!
#1 - didn't know that they had dart boards in such august buildings. - then looking at the scale in the middle one, they must have enormous darts. Good use of the tryptych and I like the PP very much. Not quite symmentrical.
#2 is beautiful. Lovely capture of colours and very serene and painterly.
#3 - very creative - great use of the blur at the edge and the ref numbers top and bottom are really good touch
hi mark I also thought of doing a ripple - worse still, if I'd been well I was also going to do the round table lol.
I can see what you meant to do with the ripple but it hasn't quite worked, so I'm going for no.1 - I think you've done a great job with it.
Now I've never been to Winchester but it is on my list - we should meet up there sometime so you can show me where everything is
Hi Mark,
Glow edit - I would hang this on my wall. Love it.
Round - I think both shots are good and on theme but for me, the second shot is the more interesting one.
Hi ya matey
loving that Round table shot , really well put together in the tryptich ,lovely processing
The Ripples....no doubt they are good but not for me...keep trying to work out what they're meant to be or were
Great triptych there, really nice processing and is my choice. The ripples are very good too, nice exposure and composition, it also makes a cool planet.
I like No2 but the vertical lines are a bit off putting
Hi Mark,
Round, I am undecided on your entries
I like the round table, your processing on this and the triptych but not sure as to the subject. Its just that I think with the table being mounted so high on the wall, you were limited with composition and with that in mind it needed some creative processing to make it a little different. Just not sure I'm afraid
The ripples I like too but again not sure its quite there for me.
I think the ripples are the main subject but are a little lost in the colours and reflection from the sky and trees. The vertical lines are a little distracting too. Apologies for sounding harsh, its not my intention. Good work rate though, multiple entries is beyond me at the moment so big for you. Iain
Sounds fair enough Andy
Be sure to view big, especially the second one.

Some would say a photo that needs an explanation has failed, but in this case you need to understand what you're looking at to get the full benefit, even though I think it also works just as a pleasing image
One reason I think the negative works better than the positive, apart from the nice colours, is what the process does to the shadows; even on the part that's turned out "familiar" (the flag), it turns the shadows into highlights and the highlights into shadows, giving it a nicer shape . I can't claim I deliberately used that, but now I've realised I might use it in the future .
Thanks Allan. I'd be disappointed in a way if everyone liked every shot I took because they'd have to be pretty generic for that. I really like it still, and of course most pictures can be reduced to "it's just a.....", but I do understand what you mean
experiment
Very important word. People must experiment to develop. Look a me :nuts:
Mark, you've finished with an absolute cracker. Fun, fun, fun.
Made me smile.
Good show overall and see you next year
