Sheesh, put the bloo**y phones away
I'd not have got the connection without the comments, but it's up there now.
Cheers.
Agree would never have got large from it but I am prepared to believe you it does say a lot about the world we live in
Thanks guy, I've had London's Largest ..... in mind all week and decided upon Lake, intending to get the people across the other side, which I did. Then this boat came along, and it was like icing on the cake.Oh lets have a day on the largest lake, and spend all our time on the phone Nice shot though.
Cheers ... it might be the lamp making it look wonky. And yep it's the Serpentine Hyde Park taken from the Lido cafe/bar.If it's not on facebook it didn't happen... Well caught, nice DoF. It looks a tiny bit wonky, but it isn't, so it's probably just my eyes. Hyde Park?
Nice idea d00d, although it isn't immediately obvious for the theme.
Hope those girls took time to actually enjoy the boat trip!
Thanks Emma ... gad you like it, I had to stand on a table to get that pov. !Very well observed and captured David - composition and dof are spot on I think.
Thanks Dave .... hope the ghosting works ...Nice shot looking down on the folks,on theme too
Great shot and spot on for the theme. The shaded location just seems to emphasise the sense of slipping into quiet deterioration. Has a sad melancholy sort of feel to it. Well found
Broken, well spotted and taken shot David, goes well with the BG and pov
Head on or head on? Thanks MarkYep, thats Broken....
Id have been tempted to crop tighter and maybe shoot more head on if it was possible ?
Very eerie David - I love the worn detail in her tattered skirts.
Nice find for broken, graveyards seem to be full of inspiration.
... nice words, good description, thanks JohnGreat shot and spot on for the theme. The shaded location just seems to emphasise the sense of slipping into quiet deterioration. Has a sad melancholy sort of feel to it. Well found
.... and susieI think John says it perfectly ....well spotted d00d.
Yep I see what you mean Allan. There's room for a head on but little else.Nice find could do with a little more headroom as it where, I keep imagining it with a head and that it would be too tight in the frame, if you see what I mean
thanks brrrnd re compo, I did flip it which improved it.Good find, good composition. I rather like the lack of headroom...
Thank you ... yes, a shame, I can't imagine what happened there.Well done, broken indeed. Shame such a nice statue, the headless statue
... good to hear from you TimHi David,
Large - I guessed Serpentine, what do I win? Good excuse for a bit of street and good bit of social commentary.
Architecture - Good take on the theme. Out of interest, did you do any significantly longer exposures to blur the people and escalator treads?
Broken - You'd think someone might have fixed it
I feel it could do with different lighting conditions to help it pop from the background though.
Thanks for your encouraging words Andrea.Hi David, I haven't been around for a few weeks so just catching up with your additions since my last visit. Both images for Vivid are perfect for the theme, with clever processing on the shed image and good leading lines towards those bright chairs. I also really like Architecture with all the different lines and angles of solid metal and brick, with the slightly ghosted motion of the people passing through the scene, and the broken angel is a good spot and the aged stone contrasts perfectly with the fresh green leaves behind.
