That should be disqualified for the awful state of the timber..........:naughty:
 
Sheesh I'm impressd - I think I need a new phone. Oh bugger I just got one! :shrug:
 
Totally natural and meets ALL CT's made up rules... :D
:p

Can't argue with that Ven (y)
BTW does this phone of yours actually make calls as well ? :p
 
LOL.

The only saving grace so far is that frac has been total crap it has to be said - makes me look good in comparison. :LOL:
 
Lol, I reckon she’s gonna use them on you if you’re not careful...


Hah... :cautious: ... me... :shrug: ... scared... :naughty: ... :runaway:

I've pretty much failed at this challenge...hang on, that's not right ...I've totally failed at this challenge!


There is still time matey... :thinking: ... or is that just an excuse... :naughty:


LOL.

Huh... :shrug: ... I just don't think you've been trying actually... :rules:






:p
 
I thought about joining in, but what's the point... with a crappy 640x480 camera on the phone... that if I want to get anything vaguely not to crap needs to take a double exposure... Which given the time it takes to do that, about 5 seconds... is hard enough to do on static targets... unless.... hmmm, uncooked rice and glue... you know it might just work :LOL:

Well having got within 3 feet of that juvy Robin and produced the crapI have, I know when I'm licked looking at the comopetition. The biggest problem is the AF rectangle is huuuge, so it's almost impossible to get sharp focus on something as small as a Robin. I need a Swan to land in the garden before 8pm. :D
 
I was chasing my cockerell around the garden the other day - Scrub that - the wretched thing is dead again. Batteries last no time at all

:LOL::LOL::LOL:

:D ... Well for you maybe, at least he manged one! ...so now you've said that ..Now how crap do I look.

:puke: :LOL:

lol Probably right on both counts.

I did try a bit honest, but all the foxes have scared off the birds so I'm ****ed anyway...well thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it. :D
 
LOL.

It would be a huge help if I could be azzed to learn how to use the damn thing properly..........:LOL:
 
Ok then, I'll add a couple of pics, not very good I know :( and easy subjects really, its the best I could do on my 50 year old Nokia :tumbleweed:.
Hope these are in the spirit :beer: (could only find a beer one, no whisky smilies there) of the comp (y)

A duck, pretending to be a Lonely Swan (ooops) :wacky:

:p

I knew that :nuts: I was testing you :).
Gee, if I had a brain I'd be dangerous :LOL:
Thanks for the ID though, it was a senior moment :bonk:
 
OK That's it. Entries are now CLOSED! :rules:

Give me a few minutes to give the entries the consideration they deserve and I'll get the results posted up. :thinking:

You are very welcome... :D ... looks like it will be me coming to the Carib with you now then... :naughty:







:p
 
OK then...

Here's the deal then. I'm finding it impossible to separate Ven and Erdig on this. They've both sumbmitted great shots for a moby - Ven with his Robin on the branch and his young Spuggy, and Erdig with his Blackbird, so I'm awarding joint second place to both of them. :2nd:


The winning shot though is remarkable for its sharpness and it even has a commendable oof bg thing going on. Sorry guys but the winning shot is in a class of it's own and thoroughly deserves it's 1st place.

Duck Pond! :1st:


Please see posts 115 and 116 in this thread and contact Marcel re your prizes!

Thanks everyone for a fun thread! :D
