    Sorry for the slow replies, didn't realise I had comments! Cheers David for the kind comments. Totally get what you mean about room to breathe it was all shot on a windowsill with an inch being taken up by the blinds. I'm a fan of the re-take although a few things I may revisit if I get bored...

    weekly DK's 52 of 2016 - Week 52 'Celebrate" added and COMPLETED

    I like your old, nice contrast of colours and interesting player. All your metal pictures are just fantastic and great at retaining colour. My favourite is "thing". Really sticks out of the dunes and is a nice sharp landscape image. A lot of work going in making this latest scene! Really...

    weekly Wallyboys 52 for 2016, CELEBRATION ADDED

    Nice pictures Walter, all having clear links to the themes. I agree I like the red background for metal. I like the elephant picture, nice smooth background and sharp image! Good luck finishing, Oscar

    weekly PSPDan's 52 for 2016 - Week 17 "Rough" added!

    I like your first one, with nice clear links to the theme whilst still being something more than just metal. I liked the captive and saw it as some kind of zoo exhibit if you get me. Nice start, good luck finishing, Oscar

    Yeah I agree, I like the original. I also like this one. I think this has become such a tangent I've forgotten what I wanted to achieve and lost the vision :banghead:. I'll approach this tomorrow with a rested mind. Oscar

    weekly Em's 52 for 2016 - Celebration added

    Your old photo has a really nice depth of field and clearly links to the theme. Your second one stands out for sure, a well lit little creature. Great choice for subject. A nice playful and well thought out subject again for week 3, clear links to the theme and you've captured the colours...

    Awesome depth of field, really makes the diamonds (presuming?) stand out. Really nice start to your 52s. Good luck finishing, Oscar

    weekly AvidPessimist's 52 - 2016

    After some shots with two larger sources of lighting I realised I was shooting for the wrong bottle. Had it been a new champagne bottle then maybe that is what would have fitted it nicely but I was shooting a tatty 52 year old bottle. This image was made with the swedish lights clamped to a...
