A very calm day that, so yes, great reflections as commented by others.
Nice to get the whole of the lock gates in too. maybe a minor point, but it shows a deliberate composition

It all counts Pete
Well thought out

 

[Allan.H]

Nice idea for camera and a nice camera do you still use it? I have quite a few old cameras and use them now and again

 

[LC2]

Paper - Nicely horned in and looks like tasty props
Liking the composition and lighting

Camera - Is that a shot of the phone taking the shot, of of a picture taken previously?

 

[Shugpug]

Nicely thought through - I like that picture of s picture a lot. Very effective new/old camera link!

 

[Nostromo]

Camera
Man, that's a lot of camera's. It's a good clean, clinical shot.

I haven't used it for a long time now. I'm tempted to put a film though soon though.

Thanks Tim and I did bake the props too!
I took the pic of the camera on the phone just before I took the main shot as I wanted a contrast in backgrounds.

Week 50 Abstract

TP52 Week 50 Abstract by Peter C, on Flickr

 

[LC2]

Focus is bang on
I was going to ask why you didn't go with a tripod and 100ISO rather than 250/s and 400ISO, but on checking it close up, I can't see any noise.
I guess that's the difference between a FF A73 and my apsc 80D from what, 3 gens ago?

Thanks Tim.

It was shot on a tripod and using a speedlite through a softbox, so I used a higher ISO to get the aperture I wanted.

 

[Shugpug]

Great detail in that, and very nicely exposed and lit.

 

[Allan.H]

Great use of DoF and nicely focused on the tip of the pencil

Week 51 Showcase
A sunrise from a short stay in Hunmanby Gap, just before the March lockdown.

[LC2]

Nice colours Pete, especially the deep blues of the water contrasting with the orange of the sky.
So what aspect of the shot makes this your stand out for 2020 in your view?

 

[Cobra]

A very tranquil seascape Pete

 

[CliveH]

Great sea view, love the colours, nice that you kept the detail in the sea.
Abstract you have nailed the focus on the pencil tip, I like the very shallow did.

 

[Shugpug]

Lovely and peaceful showcase - I can see why its a favourite.

Thanks Tim. I don't often get to take seascapes and if I could I'd spend the whole year by the sea. So I suppose I chose this because it means something to me.

Thanks Chris. I spent a very happy hour there that morning with the whole beach to myself.

Nothing wrong with that.

 

[Minx]

Another comment catchup from me.
I like the unusual playing pieces in you activity shot it is clean and simple and works well.
I love the yarn poppies good spot and very topical at the time.
the bowl of berries is great shot great colours.
Sharp is a good composition, I might have included the rest of the tomato you had sliced but maybe you ate it.
Your snappers choice is pretty and very vibrant.
Your paper shot is very appetizing I might have to bake some flapjack this afternoon.
Good composition for leaves and I love the colours of your showcase.

Week 52 Decorate

TP52 Week 52 by Peter C, on Flickr

 

[Cobra]

Someone certainly took a lot of trouble to decorate that!
Well spotted and captured Pete

 

[LC2]

That's certainly a wall of light there! Makes it hard to read the sign...
It's cool how you can get perfectly lit + silhouetted objects in the same shot like that.
I wouldn't want their electricity bill though !
