I've been lurking on the forum for a little while now and thought it was time I started to join in!!

So here starts my 52 for 2010... please be gentle but I am here to learn so comments & criticism are most welcome.

Week 1 - Curved

Hi Alan and welcome :thumbs:. A good first entry and I like the angle and the shallow DOF (could be shallower for my tastes). Looks a tad warm to me, but that may have been intentional :)
 
Hi Alan, glad you joined in. You will get plenty of C&C but I prefer to say critique than criticism as it's more positive. Not the first guitar for this theme, there must be a lot of muscians on here.

Nice angle, good start to your 52.

:thumbs:
 
Wow beautiful guitar, hope it plays as good as it looks
 
Love it, have a friend that has the same guitar and always wanted to photograph it. Serious work of art and you have got it captured really well.
 
Love it, the angle and colour are great, and it's well lit. I think the main curve has a tendency to almost be missed, thanks to the grain pattern of the wood, but there are a lot of curves in there none the less. :thumbs:
 
Thanks to all for you kind words.

Here's my photo for weeks two, I did take it last weekend but haven't had the time to get it off the camera, resize and upload until now.

I had a few ideas but in the end went for something epic...

I'm a little unsure whether the candle's highlights are too blown or not but hopefully the shallow depth of field will compensate for that.
 
I am loving the warmth in both these shots, the guitar is just about the right angle for me, any more and the pickups would look odd, any less and it would be too in-your-face.

Homer eh? I love it. I like the simpleness, the timelessness with the candle, the warmth, the feeling I should be reading the Odysseus somewhere warm and cosy... excellent :D

Love the simplicity and mood of your poetry shot. :)
 
Excellent shot for Poetry, very simple, strong and the colours suit nicely. I don't think the candle is a problem
 
Some gorgeous tones in that guitar shot for week 1. I'm less keen on week 2's shot, but with the guitar workign so well I'd like to see you continue this project... :)
