This catching up thing hasn't quite gone as I'd hoped, as my TZ8 seems to have gone astray over the last couple of days, and it's definitely not where I left it. Anyway, here is my cliche of week 3 sigh. Fear will come, as will sweet! Chris

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I quite like it, but I'm still new to this, so please forgive the sun. I'm sure I will get better (P.S. what can I do to overcome the sun issue?) I'm going to start my big catch up this week. I have photos, just need to edit one, and upload them.

Right then, time to try and play catch up!! Here we go with week 1, direction. Probably quite cliche, but I like it. I'm going to run a week (or 2) behind until I have more time, then I'll try and catch up! Chris

Thanks for the comments :). I agree, I like #3 the most, then probably #1 after that. It's a shame that I cut the paw off, but the photo looked messy with the radiator cluttering up the bottom.

A quick three grabbed yesterday. Cats are lazy. 1 2 3 C+C welcomed :) Chris

Hi all, thanks for the support :D. I'm having to hold off this week, having a disaster with uni work. But seeing as I haven't posted yet, I'm guessing (hoping) I can still do the 52, just finishing a week later than everyone else :P. Chris

I'll give this a go. First time I've tried anything like it! Final year of uni...I must be mad! I'm hoping this will help me learn how to use my camera a bit better! I'll initially give myself 6 jokers, mainly to cover the summer months as I may be away so unable to post an image. Let's see...

Go on then, I'm in, see how far I get!

Thanks for fixing that Martyn. I agree with you both, it's the one I prefer too. The third was more of an experiment...

Thanks both of you! :) I'm still getting the hang of this photography thing... Thank you. I see what you mean about it catching the eye, though in my opinion the sun is a bit overwhelming...maybe it's just me. As for the clouds, I think they're wonderful. very strange, and the first time...

A few photos I've grabbed recently while driving around the moors of Durham and Northumberland. #1 #2 #3 I know the sun is sort of taking over in #1, and I feel that a crop of the road would possibly be a huge improvement. C+C welcomed :) Chris

I paid a quick visit to the village of Blanchland, in Northumberland today, and got a few shots while I was there. It really is a nice little quaint village. #1 #2 #3 I think I may have overdone #3 a little... C+C welcomed :) Chris

Comments taken on board, thanks to both of you! I might see if I can have a play with a 35mm in Jessops... Any thoughts on the filters? Would the cokin P-series suit me? Chris

Hi all, and Merry Christmas :) With the day now over, I have money burning a hole in my pocket, and I think I fancy some new gear for my camera. I have about £200 to spend, but I just don't know what to get. I've so far looked at the cokin P series and Z-pro series filters (the P series...

Thank you Dinsdale. I'm at Northumbria Uni. Doing Transportation design. It's good fun!
