I like the idea and the watch, which works very well for the shot.
The text on the watch is OOF slightly though.

Mix
When I consider the shots you've done previously in your 52, this one dissapoints me.
It's a mixer on a stone/ marble worktop and that's all it says. Sorry.
Fun
It could just be me, but I cannot make out what it is
I see a battery (I think it's a battery), notice your ref to NSFW and can make out the word 'vibration', add that to the theme of 'fun' and I hope I'm comming to the wrong conclusion!
I prefer the second shot for it's slight colour, but as I cannot make out what the image is I'm struggling to find any interest in it.
Hi, Adie, main issue for me with your mix if the lack of contrast. I'd like to see the darks darker and the lights lighter. There's potential there, perhaps closer up to the mixer head??
#1 vibrate for me. Overall, though, doesn't grab me. Spill the beans...what is it??
Volume, both are well composed and nice dof. Again, though tyhey don't grab me.
Cheers.
Hiya Adie, I too prefer number 1 of your 2 volume photogrpahs.
#1 vibrate for me. Overall, though, doesn't grab me. Spill the beans...what is it??
Adie appears to avoiding the answer!!
Thank you very much.I learnt about this theme while on the 52ers meet and said there would be a few shots of volume dials. These are the first I've got to and I suspect they've set a high bar!
The plug was added when I realised there was just a bit too much dead space in the background, but I wanted somethig that could be identified even OOF.I'm not a fan of the plug in the BG of #2, but other than that they're great.
It's clear there has been a lot of thought about the composition, and the DOF works very well in both, well done, I love them.
Only neg is that you've got me wanting a nifty 50 again after I've just spent my money on a flash!
Hi Adie
Its defo the first volume shot for me. My only crit of the shot however that the whole of the word volume is not in focus.... Im not sure you needed to increase the dof... just move the focus point. But that is a minor crit of what is a great shot that would look fab in any fender type advertising brochure! For me the volume not being in focus completely takes away the photos connection with the theme... slightly!
Great work overall though!

As for getting rid of your nifty fifty :nono:
Hi Adie
great shot & take on the Hard theme
Love the colors & DOF ,the shadows add interest ,really nice work
No probs, fully understand. Glad you're back with us.Hiya Adie,
Firstly I apologise for taking so long to get round to looking at your project, things have been so hectic lately and I've wanted to try to get my shots sorted for the past few weeks before commenting on others .... so here is a quick catch up of your posts:
I'm gonna do a re-shoot. I'm 100% not happy with this shot.Mix: As you say it was a rushed shot, and agree it is not one of your best .... however I think you have done well lighting the subject especially as trying to photograph something shiny like this object is not the easiest to do.
Nope and nope. All i'm going to say is; as kids, we had fun playing with our toys. As adults, can the same not be true? :nuts: (Maybe some people's though process is on the money LOL)Fun: Now I'm trying to figure this one out .... I like both colours, but my preference is to the blue hue. Is it a smoothie maker or some sort of kitchen appliance? (note I do not have same thought process of some here )
Many thanksVolume: Both great shots, but the 1st one gets a from me. I like the angle, lighting and dof on this one.
Thanks again, I did enjoy setting up and shooting this last one.Explode: Wow this is absolutely fantastic ... and has your signature all over it from the idea, lighting, composition ..... just everything about it is brilliant Now the question is ..... should it be the blue wire to be cut I'm sure we will find out if you got the right wire if you are around to post photo for the next theme
Well done, you have done a fantastic job with the past few weeks. I'm sorry if this is brief .... I have loads of catching up to do.
no Mr Bond... i expect you to die...
Adie...you've achieved a brilliant take on the theme WELL DONE!!!!!! lighting and composure good... but AWESOME set... ..only one thing,... where are the sandwiches wrapped in gladwrap??? no genuine bomber would be without lunch... BIG
Now, where is my packed lunch?
Damn, Adie, that's on hell of a take and some effort put in there.
The referrence to James Bond is great.
I tried to work out the word on the dynamite and got yavanox but nothing on Google....go on??
Also, what was your vibrate??
Cheers.
