The TP52 - 2026 Darkslinger's 52 for 26

[SimonH]

Nice selection Bill. Always on point!

Good set Bill, and picked the best shot imo. Did she/they ask for a copy?

 

[NickD]

Your chosen shot fits the bill, the lights could be stars too!

 

[Darkslinger]

Nice set of shots - I particularly like the geometries in the last one!

This is a art installation on the edge of the plaza behind the Vancouver Art Gallery. I can't tell you how many times I've shot it or used it as a backdrop for something. Always a go-to location when I'm downtown.

Also - love the set of images for daily life - some great shots there.

Thanks Phil!

 

[Darkslinger]

Fab set Bill and you selected the right one

Thanks Dave

[FONT=times new roman][SIZE=4]Wonderful shots there Bill [/SIZE][/FONT]

Thanks Wayne, not sure what happened with your comment there...

A great set Bill

Thank you Paul

Nice selection Bill. Always on point!

Thanks Simon

Good set Bill, and picked the best shot imo. Did she/they ask for a copy?

Thanks Keith, to be honest I didn't even think of asking...usually when I shot a scene, I'm looking at how some static element interacts with the light, and people are just added interest...

Thanks Nick!

Week 14 Snappy, Snapperness

I wasn't able to get out to the city this week so I thought that I'd shoot some random plant life from my walks with our dog

 

[-Oy-]

Love this fab set. No1 for me ta

Good set Bill, especially like the last shot - contrast against the fence and the flower heading for the light

Thanks Dave, I almost used that one as my choice to post.

Thanks Keith, the perennial clematis that drapes over my backyard fence.

So many Nice shots there Bill, great compositions there. Your selected "a study in green" is rather special.

 

[Boots]

A great set, as ever Bill, but a distinctly different feel to these. Super work!

 

[SimonH]

Good set Bill #1 for me but all good.

Thanks Paul, yeah, I thought that I'd do something a little different

Thanks Simon, the fern caught my eye as I was walking my dog.

Week 15 Morning Ritual

So I thought that I'd take some shots of the things that I use as part of my morning rituals, with an eye to the abstract.

My electric razor



The yoga mat (not to do yoga, just some stretching)



Toothbrush...of course...



One of my V60 filter holders, it's actually dark green plastic (looks like a vortex to me



My other V60 filter holder, white porcelain



The brown filter that I use, backlit

 

[-Oy-]

Interesting set Bill

 

[Boots]

Great set, and I love your "entrance to the wormhole"!

 

[SimonH]

Cracking set Bill. Love the razor

 

[NickD]

I like the abstract feel of your chosen shot. It's a strong image.

 

[nog]

Great set, and idea, Bill. Another vote for the vortex here

 

[Barney]

Cracking Images as always Bill

 

[Kell]

Good sert of images and I really like the abstract nature of your chosen shot.

 

[philthejuggler]

Really interesting abstract image there - the V60 filter holder is my favourite.

 

[AlanDorset]

Great set and good interpretation for the theme

LOL, it turned out much different then I thought it would.

Week 16 Monuments

So, I wasn't too engaged with this theme (too restrictive) but there is a monument near our Seabus terminal called the Angel of Victory and since I was meeting someone nearby I thought that I do a little photographic study of it.

This is a three shot HDR with the focus on the hand of the soldier, I mostly like it except for the little bit of fringing on the face and shoulder



From a little bit further back



And from the front

 

[Kell]

I think it’s been a tough challenge to try and take a pic of something which isn’t just a monument.

So for me, the challenge was ‘how do I shoot it differently?’

I think your chosen shot absolutely answers that and I like both the processing and POV.

The inclusion of the building makes it look like there’s more of a story there too.

 

[Allan.H]

The black and white image is excellent great angle

 

[-Oy-]

I like em all

 

[NickD]

The angle works really nicely!
