The TP52 - 2026 Darkslinger's 52 for 26

[NickD]

I like the subtle movement in your chosen shot, and the rust tones in the big W look lovely.

The first car shot really appeals to me too.

Cultural elements
That's a very colourful set of images.

Nostalgia
Another good set, there's something about old cars, they're not particularly comfortable, they're a bit unrefined, they're not that great to drive, but we all remember them with love.

 

[Darkslinger]

Another great set Bill!

I think your chosen shot is very evocative for the theme, it reminds me of pictures I would see of the future-worlds in the newspapers and comics of my youth.

Thanks Paul, a lot of good memories tied up with that sign.

Good set Bill, like the big W and the 3rd shot with the steering wheel for me

Thanks Keith, got lucky with the old car show.

As other said Bill, another top set.

Thank you Simon

Great set, the final “W” would be my pick, carried a bit more character

Thanks Alan, yeah a lot of texture there.

I do like the first shot of the car its a great angle.

Thanks you Allan, the first image that I took that day. It was parked on the street rather than as part of the cars show.

I like the subtle movement in your chosen shot, and the rust tones in the big W look lovely.

The first car shot really appeals to me too.

Thanks Nick.

Thanks Dominic, for me it's the smell. When you sit in them, old cars just smell different, not bad, just different.

Week 35 Snapperlicious

I wanted to find someplace different to shoot for this challenge. A friend told me about this place just off the side of the road that had a trail the ran under the Alex Fraser bridge so I thought that I'd check it out. More of a scouting trip then a serious shoot. I did bring my tripod thinking that I might shoot some long exposures but ended up not using it.

As you start down the trail towards the water, there is a small bridge that give an overview of a pulp mill to the left


Then there is the bridge itself. I walked to the right side to capture some of the morning light



On the right side of the bridge, down the river there was a little cottage/shack that caught my eye


On my walk back to the trailhead, I thought that I'd try to get some more "artsy" shots of parts of the bridge. These are just a couple of them

 

[wornish]

Your chosen image is excellent. I also like the other"artsy" shots of the bridge. Looks like you have found a good location.

 

[Nostromo]

I think you've chosen the right image, but I would say that they're all pretty good.

 

[NickD]

Your chosen shot works great. It's obvious what it is, but there's an abstract feel to it.

 

[Kell]

Some great angles on the set of car shots.

I like how you created your chosen shot, but I think I prefer the rust of the bigger W.

For snappers - I really like the graphic nature of the lamppost under the bridge.

 

[SimonH]

Great set as per, Bill. Love the bridge shot.

 

[AlanDorset]

I am partial to a good architecture shot, and really like your “artsy” pics.

 

[nog]

Good set Bill, think you picked the right shot. Nice looking bit of architecture against the sky

 

[Allan.H]

All good as always, lamppost under the bridge is a belter though.
