weekly Fuji Dave`s Weekly 52 Challenge 2020 WEEK 52 DECORATIONS

I like both but prefer #1 for the theme as well. Looks good in mono - would assume a bit busy in colour.
#2 - someone's got a lot of clearing up to do!

 

[Fuji Dave]

Nicely done Dave. I like the crop and the concentration showing on his face in the first. A nice bit of processing too. The second is great as it shows just how powerful nature is and that we should respect that. I love shots that show something that occurs infrequently like this.

Thank you Pete.

Thank you Helen, they only have until tomorrow to clear it all as it`s the Brighton Half marathon. Don`t think it will be done though in time.

Tow nice shots, Dave. Wow, never thought the sea could be that powerful to shift all that material.

 

[Shugpug]

That second one is eye-opening! Nice B&W street shot as well.

[Nostromo]

That's my kind of bench, sit down and stretch my legs out.

 

[Minx]

Broken - I too like the pier best.
Ability - 2 good shots there, the 2nd certainly shows the affects of the recent storms

Is the street shot pre-focused similar to using a rangefinder type camera? A time lapse shot showing all that shingle on the move would have been interesting to see

Thank you Stuart, the street shot was a straight auto focus shot while at the bus stop. Agree on the time lapse as it would of been great to see.

Snowdrops have long been associated with Winter. This is also an Archive as the rain is in for the next week here still.

I like the raindrops on the snowdrops, but I thought this meant spring was in the air [emoji22] more winter weather then [emoji16]

Is the freezer shot coming later? I still have no inspiration.

I Googled snowdrops, and it seems they can and do come out in a mild winter. The weather here is rain for the next week so sadly had to be a archive shot, as freezer is too cold

 

[FlyPhot]

Nicely done - I'm looking forward to some of that sunlight!

Snowdrops is my insurance shot for this week but taken yesterday

Thank you both, just glad I took that shot at the beginning of this month.

Nicely taken Dave. Bang on theme and not to much of an archive according to the exif.
X100V eh? When does it arrive? (I saw the saga in the fuji thread).

That's nice Dave, looks like natural lighting, and raindrops on snowdrop look good.

 

[HelenC]

Lovely pov on the snowdrops. Most definitely a sign of winter.

 

[mdpF2]

Nice winter shot Dave, you even had some sunshine.

Lovely shot, sharp on the raindrops and petals, they look so delicate and nice with all the green to compliment the shot

Depict a Book is a good theme and also very open too, I have had a read of Dean Koontz books over the years and here is my take on Depict a Book, I wanted it in b&w and floaty as to make it creepy looking too.

Really suits the B&W treatment

 

[rpn]

Just looked up the book and it fits perfectly.

[Bebop]

I don’t know the book but it does look floaty and a little creepy, so mission accomplished! B &W suits it. I am curious as to how colourful it is though.
