Hi Allan
Ending - fun image - but not your best I feel. Still it's done - and don't give up - I would miss your humour
and honest pithy assessments.

Hi Allan, sorry if I've not been back for a while.
Sense, lovely puddytat. I like how you've managed to highlight all of the senses, it works well against the dark background.
Ending, made me laugh. I do recall you disliking the themes last year (as we all did, dam juxtaposition) I'm sure some themes that inspire you are just around the corner

Thanks Mandy
Endings everywhere lol, fun photo as Mandy has said with lots of on theme options to see
Ta
Ending of endings
Indeed
I agree with Andy, good one
Thank you
Thanks
Hi Allan
I really like the Sense shot , that look would stop most dogs dead !! I like the lighting , the highlight is on the whiskers which is exactly what you wanted I think) , the blacks are black & the whites white.....purrrfect
My tiny bit of crit is the small lighter areas lower rhs of the frame...can't make out if they are part of the cat or light spill ?
Ending....good fun image
As for wading through treacle...I feel your pain
Thanks Lynne the light patches are probably light spill never noticed till you said
hopefully not

thanks, there is nothing better than suggested wife beating to raise a chuckle
Yep, as said, fun image Allan
lets hope so

This one raised a smile over here. The use of Fin rather than End has been well thought. I also like that the image fades to black at the top giving a sense of intrigue as to the dead body.

Just to echo whats been said above Allan
I like the lighting effect you've chosen here, the figures in the spotlight works well.
I don't mind the negative space on the rhs, the figures being in the positive space creates the balance. Good work

eeek - all the way back to sense for me......
I like the darkness - implies the cats sense of whats around it, even in the dark, through their whiskers which youve caught the light on perfectly... I do think anything else would detract from this, and we must remember that its a moving subject where the difficulty of lighting and composing increases dramataically!
ending.... I've had similar feelings to your regarding this years... hopefully the weather will improve and we can see more outdoor ones as the summer comes. (?).
positive is a nice theme to have though, and the hug from the little salt and pepper pots is really positive. Stand out area for me is the black BG and base, but still leaving them something to stand on. - like it.

Allan - Ending - that is really good. Like the idea and the way that you have composed it and an excellent handling of the three colours. Lighting is super too.

WEEK 10 TIME
time by allanhowe, on Flickr
Have we not had this subject 3 years running now
please put it in the bin.
This is an old sundial which I am currently remounting as the plinth it was on is broken, have cut and routed a piece of oak for it to sit on
so I am now looking for a reclaimed stone plinth.

Hi Allan, Sorry I've not stopped by in a while... Trying to catch up!
Ending - Made me chuckle. Especially reading the description!
Positive - Like the lighting. Red, white and black works well. Only tiny niggle is a what looks like a few scratches on the surface the pots are standing on.
Time - I like this. Composition is different to what we normally see with this subject... Also like that it's B&W.
And yes, we seem to be getting a lot of repeat themes!
