Nice one, I think the reflections really make the shot work

 

[Darkslinger]

Great shot Alan! Exactly the type of thing I look for when I'm on a walkabout in the city.

 

[Allan.H]

Interesting image with the reflections, really nice.

That different - I like it. Can she breathe in there?

Mannequin in a ladies clothes shop window caught my eye.

 

[Boots]

As a shot, I like it - nice bit of light on the brim.

For the theme...

 

[Allan.H]

Different and all the better for it

 

[SimonH]

Nice one Alan. Like that take.

 

[Nostromo]

Thinking outside of the box. A good interpretation.

Good idea, not easy to get volunteers this week

 

[Darkslinger]

Great idea Alan, looks like the blank looks I used to get when I'd ask my daughters what they were up to when they were headed out...

Quiet Moments by Alan Webb, on Flickr

Church of St Mary, Tarrant Crawford. Grade 1 listed and under the remit of The Churches Conservation Trust. This organ hasn't worked for about 20 years, hence the quiet moment, just left in the corner of the church under some tired and moth eaten baize. The church is better known for the medieval wall paintings, sadly deteriorating on the damp walls.

Medieval Frescoes by Alan Webb, on Flickr
A slightly hurried handheld shot of the wall paintings in the church. Interesting history around here.

 

[-Oy-]

Nice shots Alan

 

[nog]

Good idea, its a shame about the wall paintings

 

[Nostromo]

A good close up of the keys

 

[Darkslinger]

Great shot Alan, love the backstory.

 

[Allan.H]

Interesting church thank god the organs quiet

Cultural Elements Mono by Alan Webb, on Flickr

Pub Culture !

 

[AlanDorset]

Not normally a Mono type of photographer, but though that it worked well here.


Cultural Elements by Alan Webb, on Flickr

This was in theory an appropriate topic as we are "Dorset Town of Culture 2026"

[SimonH]

Agree Alan - the mono suits it perfectly

 

[Darkslinger]

That's a good one Simon, it works well in b&w.

 

[NickD]

It works with or without colour for me, there's so much going on.

 

[Nostromo]

I like the B&W
Pub culture, what could be more British.

Nostalgia by Alan Webb, on Flickr

Group B rally era, golden nostalgia.
Just completed this build of a Tamiya RC model, learnt a few things and might have to do another one !

 

[nog]

Like the pub shot and good to see it busy, colour for me

Group B or the crazy era

 

[SimonH]

Tidy. Works well, and nice to have but it rather than buying off the shelf!

 

[Boots]

That shot works well - you have injected a nice bit of animation to it.

Other than that big stalk of grass I love it. I remember shooting these whizzing about a Welsh woodland.

Things you don’t see until you’re in front of the screen, as always. Ran out of time to have a second go at the photo
