Week 33 - Clean (cut)
I explored an idea I have shot before, well a couple of shots to be honest and combined the idea here to give my interpretation of the theme "Clean (cut)"

Week 33 - Clean by Iain Blake, on Flickr

For reference these are the two shots where I combined the idea from.

Fork & Knife by Iain Blake, on Flickr

and

Week 26 - Yum (mmmm chips) by Iain Blake, on Flickr

That is a really clever picture, I wish I had the imagination to think of those sort pictures. Love it!

Thanks Simon, I have collected the props over the years, so I just have to try and come up with a different spin on things.

Brilliant combination. The sheer amount of triangles you've formed in the shot is fab. You've taken two "ok" images and turned them into something special. Great effort.

 

[HelenC]

Great idea and really well composed and thought through.

 

[superpippo]

Yes, a good combination of the other two, making a very intersting and humorous shot.
The lighting is a big improvement on the other two IMO

Week 34 - Glass(es)
I have returned to a particular favourite of mine in bending wire.
This is a self portrait which I created, used one of the card photo mounts to frame the head, lit with a daylight balanced led light.

Brilliant. The contrast works so well.

 

[FlyPhot]

Really like this, great idesa and well executed all round. Well done.

Fab take on the theme - you look wired

Thanks Ian, I might try and get something else for the theme, I will see how it goes I've been pressed for time these past few weeks.

Clean - good take on the theme, I think you chose the right one for the main page. Great idea and the colours work really well, with the white plate a real contrast to the brown tones. Very clever!

 

[seaodyssey]

That's clever, I can see it is you.

Judging by your avatar that's a great self portrait. Nice one!

Clean
A good imaginative shot. I like the difference in the texture of the wood and the white ceramic plate.

Glass
Another good bit of wire bending.
