Thanks Negan, I actually played with a panorama of the North Shore (slightly different view) that turned out well. I see what you're saying about the clouds (I changed the colour temperature a little as well):Hey Bill.
#1. I feel that it would work better in a 16x10 or 16x9 crop to lose the cloud at the top. it's not adding much if anything, and losing it would focus your view on the foreground and the mountains.
I love the verticals in #4, but I think personally I may have gone with #6 as it works well in a contrasty B&W way.
Very good outcomes from the camera you were using, can I be able to know what type of a camera you were using and the type of lens you were using to get this outcomes
No problem Serame, I use an Olympus OM-D E-M1 MKIII with an Olympus 12-100mm f4.0 pro lens.Very good outcomes from the camera you were using, can I be able to know what type of a camera you were using and the type of lens you were using to get this outcomes
Wow this extended is very niceIt was a drizzly, wet day in downtown Vancouver but my trusty Oly is weather sealed and the light was great...
The first shot is looking from downtown Vancouver over to North Vancouver with the mountains and low lying clouds.View attachment 316624View attachment 316630View attachment 316631View attachment 316627View attachment 316628View attachment 316629

The clouds at the top cropping tool must take place at least 16 by 10 and also the color of the umbrellas foreground forms a good combination with the sheep at the backThanks Negan, I actually played with a panorama of the North Shore (slightly different view) that turned out well.

Thanks Serame, I try to see the shapes and sometimes try to place them in context and sometimes try to make them more abstract.Thanks so much, I have realised to some of you your pictures you were so creative whereby you used lines and shapes and textures to produce very nice images and that also is a motivation to me thinking out of the box while going out for a shoot .
Is it important to use a tripod ?
Thanks Serame.Wow this extended is very nice
Thanks Bebop, I had a little trouble deciding on what to post but I liked the drama of the clouds in the background and the pops of colour. I was also fortunate enough to have a couple of gentlemen "posing" to add interest.So many pics and I have too much to say ha ha! Briefly.... love the red of the brollies, liking the yellow and blue balancing in the welly pic. Two very nice B&W architecture pics - probably my faves.
LOL, thanks Martin, no shortage of rain on the "wet-coast" of Canada!Ah rain. I remember when we used to have that in the UK. Nice atmospheric shot of the cloudy mountains.

Approaching the view using monochrome was also a good idea or B/W.
Thanks Pete, #4 is of an art installation that I keep going back to because it has such good lines. #6 was a quick, random shot as I crossed Granville Street and noticed the sheen off the wet roadway.I like #4 and #6 the best, but glad I'm not in Vancouver.
Pete
Thanks Helen!I rather like #4 for the nice curvy composition but I can see why you chose the shot you did.
Thanks Dominic!Out and about
Really like #4, love the different shapes, the curves, the straight edges, the pillars etc.
Thanks Paul!Very nice, I like that!
LOL, not suspended, just on a glossy leather portfolio.I really like the limited colour palette. I'm not sure how you magically suspended it, but it all works well for me. Nicely lit too.
Thanks Martin.Excellently exposed. A simple but effective image.
Thanks Dave, this is my set of step-up rings for my lens filters.I have an old lends hood from a MF film camera somewhere that looks likle that. Nice choice.
Thanks Dominic.Shapes
That's got a look of real quality.
Thanks Dave, M4/3's rule!Some cracking shots you have put in, the red brollies just make the shot pop so like it.
Shapes plain simple bang on and effective.
Thanks Bebop, I drink tea as well (both loose leaf and bagged).Ha ha! It's a way of life for some, but it's all a bit alien to me. Is the Aero Press where the water goes? We're tea drinkers and still use leaf tea.
There's lots to look at and I'm guessing you've incorporated everything used in the process. Fun cup there too. A few tricky highlights/reflections, but I'm not sure what you can do about that.
Thanks Roxanne, one of the best and most forgiving ways to brew a single cup.Ahhh I know this coffee process well! Very clever idea!
Thanks Stan.That's a clever take on the theme. The digital world we live in now is all 1s and 0s.
Thanks Dave, I admit it, I'm pretty far down that rabbit holeAnd I thought I was a posh coffee dude with me Dolce Gusto Nesspresso machine
A nicely shot shot!
Thanks Hadron, good to hear from another "Presshead"! I'm currently enjoying a coffee from the UK roaster, Round Hill Roastery. Really like it a lot.Brilliant, another Aeropress aficionado here Really clever idea for the theme. I like how the green of the drinking receptacle injects a nice shot of colour. Top job
LOL, thanks Tim! I didn't even notice the reflection.First thing in the morning it's as much as I can do to find a cup, spoon, milk and some instant coffee.
Couldn't be doing with that faff !
Cool image though. I do like the reflection of the green cup in the display. It adds a second dash of colour.
Thanks Dominic. I totally get it. It's just not for some people.Numbers
I have no idea how any of that works. Coffee is not my thing, I'll eat coffee ice-cream and coffee cake, but I don't like the drink, weird, I know.
It's a good composition and good for the numbers theme.
Thanks Martin, not sure what your timestamp is showing. Probably the time difference between the UK and the west coast of Canada. I think that you're 8 hours ahead?It's an odd thing to keep for sure but you have found a use for it. I keep odd pieces of wood and metal and very occasionally some of them come in useful. Good use of DoF.
I note, by the timestamp of your post, you get up very early ,
Thanks Dave.Nice colourful toy shot, poor thing needs help.
Thanks Bebop, I don't think it can be saved. It's missing pieces.That works really well. It looks like there has been an air disaster - poor old Minnie!
You kept it thinking you might glue it all together perhaps?
Thanks Simon (it's actually Mickey, not Minnie...)Just needs a rescue from Micky, I really like how the the picture been framed
Thanks Dominic.Toy
I'm sure you subconsciously kept it, knowing that one day it'll come in handy for one of these themes.
Poor little Mini, although she still seems to be smiling. I like the background being so far away and the dof.
Not that long a drop, just that the plastic pieces were brittle.This one provoked a grin. Must have been a long drop. Right on theme and tech.
Thanks Joan.That was funny. Poor Minnie has lost her prop!
