Yes Order #2 for me as well - mainly for the different coloured houses in the bg. Nice and sharp and good DoF. Blimey I wouldn't fancy going out in LA177 but a lovely characterful boat and bang on theme.
That was my first choice if I am honest, the other was just something that caught my eyeReally do like the #2 Chris, as imo the BG really helps to enhance the Order sign
I'm staring at your Harbour orders image, thinking I know that place, then noticed the sign said Tenby.
Many many years ago around about. 1963 I used to go to school in Tenby. A convent that was opposite the arches into the town centre,
cannot remember the correct name.
Thanks for the memory.
Thanks Mandy, I wonder how far I'll get this yearwow what a cracking set of images on your catch up, and good to see your still with us.
Thanks Carl, if only I could sort that bloody skyLike the POV's of all three but the one that engages me more is the middle one with the fg interest & texture provided by the rocks and the contrast it gives between man-made & natural structures.
Nice shots Chris, my pick is the last two like the pov on them more
I prefer the first, I love the symmetry of the image
Good luck with sticking at it this year Chris and well done with the catch up, the first pier for me for the topic but I love the composition on the second one.
Yay! I'm so glad someone went for that particular shoehorn...i just couldn't find any holes to shoot The conversion works so well here and I love the texture in the stone.
Nice crop on order and I like the vibrant colours on your boat shot.
The first shot for structure is a cracker - real attention to detail in the symmetry
Structure - a nice set of images to choose from, they all work for me. I cant think which one I prefer, I want to say the first one for composition, but then I also want to say the second image despite the flat looking sky.
I like whole ... on theme or not.
And that red boat in the mud.
And, well, I'm voting for Structure #3 ... just love the focus on the FG barnacles.
Another vote for structure #3!
I like all of them, but the middle one is the pick of the bunch. Juts really like the compo and colours in it.
Thanks Andy, me too, but unfortunately I didn't have any filters and the sky was already blowing out. However I'e now picked up a P Series kit to see how I get on. Up to now I have 1,2,3 stop grads, 2 stop ND & a CPL, I think I may need to get a stronger ND though tooOn theme. Decent detail. I do like these with long exposures of the water.
Cheers.
Hi Chris,
Looks like I need to do a bit of a comment catchup on your catchup
Glad you've decided to participate as you've captured ome good images there
So, in no particular order...
Comfort - Nice warm tones there. Though cluttered, you have pushed the bg oof to emphasise the subject
Hairy - A fine looking dog you have there, and a good, slightly unusual, portrait. Getting detail in blacks can be hard and you've done it well.
Mineral - Mini Stalactites? I'm intrigued to know where that was taken, it kind of looks like within a tunnel.
Smooth - All the right composition elements there Chris. It's the sort of picture you could imagine hanging in a seaside tea room.
Whole - Nowt wrong with a shoe-horn every now and then Quite muted B&W processing. I *may* have pushed the contrast a bit, dunno.
Order - I prefer the seconds one, purely on the basis of the myriad colours
Song Lyrics - Back to week 0 too eh? Fair play. Tenby I assume? I like the vibrancy of the red against the sky.
Structure - Of the lot, I think this is my favourite. Good subject matter, great symmetry, detail in the shadows and judging by the sky, you've done all of this on a flat day (ah - just read you comments, yes it was). I love the detail in #3, but #1 just edges it.
Thanks Nick, it was the underside of the old Offshore Lifeboat ramp in Tenby. I'd seen it earlier in the week and when the theme came up, I did a little jump for joy as I'd been wanting an excuse to get some pics. From then it was a case of waiting for the tide.Hi Chris. Well done for catching up. I started at the beginnning and I'm stll behind! I like the first of your 'structure' photos - it empahsises the structure of the, erm, structure and the I love the obvious high tide level.
mineral - love how you captured the moisture and slippiness of the stalectites, feels all wet and damp
smooth - not a shoehorn for me, those stones look pretty smooth to me nicely captured against a vibrant oceanic sky
whole - sliiight shoehorn but this image is my favourite from yours that i'm commenting on tonight. if you'd cropped the left most door to be on its own, i'd have thought this coffee shoe was run by hobbits
order - #1 for me. simplistic. less is more. works really well, especially the angle #2 is a nice pic but that sign is a bit harsh, i'm not sure it makes for a conventionally "good" photo. very nice background though!
sitting on the dock of the bay - nice pic, very sharp, with nice constrasting red colours against greys and blues of the beachy background
structure - #3 definitely my fave, has such great depth and those barnacle things are fasinating to look at spread all over the beams
well done all round!
Thanks Stevedefinitely acheived the extra drama from editing, maybe just a bit to dark around the rear of the bike on my screen but otherwise I like it.
