Great image Jim.
Love the motion blur in the blade.
Works well for the theme, nicely done.

 

[Manxmaid]

Eek, mind your fingers, Jim! That's a great idea for the theme, original, and well set up. It's worth clicking through to Flickr to see the close-up details of the blade in motion and the sawdust flying.

 

[Deleted member 59779]

fills the brief well. Some good texture in the wood and like others like the sawdust. Does look good on flickr.

Rough Sawn



And yes, I know I should have a blade guard on the saw - I usually do but took it off for this image as I wanted to capture the movement on the blade and the sawdust (I think I have just about managed to capture both).

Nice image and lots of textures. Re guard... yes be careful, I've seen first hand how this goes wrong! good image though

 

[Carl Hall]

Nicely done! The perfect amount of movement in the blades to show their speed, but holding enough detail to see how vicious they look.

 

[IanD]

A nice rough shot Jim. Good idea mate.

 

[DomRim]

Hi Jim, rough is a good image! Like the detail captured of the sawdust and wood texture, as well as the moving saw blade. I agree with Lee, worth looking on flickr to see all the detail.

 

[rpn]

Like the idea and it fits the theme.

 

[Scots_quine]

Despite the fact that H&S would have a fit, it is a lovely shot!

 

[Nostromo]

Rough
Good job, nice composition, maybe a little more movement in the blade would be good.

 

[Ganton Gunner]

Waiting all 4 work well but I do like the (redshank ?)

Rough sawn you need to see my cutting skills if you think that’s rough lol and be careful with them fingers

 

[rick448]

Nicely captured, count the fingers!

 

[LC2]

Captured the movement in the saw very nicely, you can see the shape of the teeth, but there is sufficient movement to see that it is in-fact running and not a staged shot.

 

[gremlin16]

nice take on the theme. the flying sawdust adds a little extra. nicely done.

 

[FlyPhot]

Mystery Object ...

 

[Fuji Dave]

Cool shot for object Jim, like the placing of the card and good BG brickwork.

It's my 50th birthday, so the 'mystery object' seemed to fit quite well.

 

[-Oy-]

Happy Birthday - and a nice pic too

 

[lindsay]

Clever. Well constructed items, although the background maybe could have been simpler?

 

[LC2]

Works nicely for the theme. Nice and bright and cheerful.
One thought would be to have re-positioned the presents slightly so that the wall behind doesn't change, as the change in the wall does pull the eye a bit.

 

[GarethB]

Happy Birthday Jim!!
That box looks camera shaped!!

Very nice image, love the colours and the composition.
Nice work Jim!

 

[michael23]

Happy birthday Jim!

I like the colour in brick work and I think it is well composed.

 

[gremlin16]

Good story telling for the theme. And plenty of interest in the shot.

 

[BobBCN]

Good idea to use those elements. Have a good one!! And anyone else waiting to see what the prezzies were?

thanks ... It was a tray and some Dartington G&T glasses (I also went to watch Exeter Chiefs and out for a slap up steak meal!) but my main prezzie will be had later in the year in the form of a 1 to 1 photography workshop in the Lake District.

 

[Manxmaid]

Belated birthday wishes, Jim This is a good idea, the colours complement each other very well and it's nicely arranged, and definitely makes you wonder what was inside so it's perfect for the 'mystery' part of your title.

 

[Nostromo]

Object
Good idea, I like the composition and colours. A good touch with the envelope.

 

[IanD]

Nice object image Jim. Good staging and it makes you wonder what's inside the boxes (although we now know)

Happy 50th too

My dog's WET nose (also SooC) ...



I was pondering what to do for this theme, the dog was sat in my lap, I looked down and saw her wet nose and thought 'that's it!'.

 

[Fuji Dave]

Well they do say a dogs nose is cold and wet, plus a sooc.

 

[karate-ka]

Nice detail and the focus is spot on.

 

[susiejb]

Jim I love your idea for object, super composition and colours, with the added mystery of what’s inside the parcels.
Wet ... well that’s definitely spot on for the theme, perfect detail and another week very quickly sorted.

 

[CliveH]

Great idea for wet and an unusual composition that works really well.

 

[GarethB]

Very creative, and on point for the theme!
Spot on focus - lots of detail, and you nailed the exposure too.
Excellent SOOC image Jim!

 

[-Oy-]

Fab shot - right on the nose

 

[BobBCN]

Very nice indeed. Sign of a healthy dog!!

 

[lindsay]

What they all said. Excellent idea and well executed

 

[Leebert]

Liking the shot for Object. Nicely composed. Regarding the background, maybe a shallower DoF or add a bit of a blur in post? I hope you had great birthday and the 1 to 1 session sounds great!

Wet - That is a great shot! So right for the theme and great for a SooC shot.

 

[rpn]

Sometimes you don't have to think too hard and occasionally the perfect theme image just presents itself in front of you and this is a good example. Nice composition with great details too.

 

[DomRim]

Fits the theme well and is a nice image!
