Well spotted, Ian and I need one too. Too many irresponsible dog owners around my area.
I own a dog and always pick up after her as should every dog owner, so I could also do with one of them so well spotted and a good fun shot.
Such a shame that things like this are needed...
Works for the theme, but not an image I particularly like :/ for what it says about society.
Bit of a crap shot but I like it
Interesting object well captured
Hopefully that sign 'de-turd' (deterred) any wrong-doers!
Blimey....sorry about that!!
Great shot, lots of detail, very nice colours and good use of DoF to accentuate the....message!!
Nicely done Ian.
Nice object there, well taken, with nice colour and dof.
Something a bit different! Well spotted, the colours are magnificent
And so they should OBJECT!! Well spotted, a good idea for the theme.
I object too. Nice spot!
I wish there was a cat version of this sign so that I could put it in my garden veg patches. Although then I'd have to teach next door's cat to read it.
Well spotted and taken. Meets the theme well and I like the image.
Such a shame that irresponsible dog owners create the need for this, but it's a good find and your use of shallow DOF helps it to stand out well from its setting
Object
Well seen. It's a little bit central, but has good colours.
Nice take on the theme Ian well spotted
I like that, lovely reflection.
Great image for wet Ian, love the lighting and also a great reflection.
What a great image, love the warm colours and the reflection.
I agree nice reflection
What a fantastic image!
The reflections are perfect, and the deep, rich colours are tremendous!
The composition is excellent, and I love the starburst effect from the stopped down aperture....always looks cool on night shots!
Great work Ian!
Nice reflection and balance of exposure there
Object, great subject (we need a few of those round our way!)
Wet, fantastic, really like this one, great reflection and colours
Looks like a great place Ian, and you've done a top job of capturing it. That reflections is awesome!
Very nice exposure to capture that nice soft reflection. Spot on
WET - Great shot with the reflection. Well done on that one.
Object is certainly a perfect for the theme ... its one thing I think we all definitely Object to.
Wet is a super image the reflection is fabulous, composition is spot on too.
Great picture, stunning colours
Colours are really good and the BG is good I would lose the glass I do do this type of shot now and again and would have supported them in something else and maybe included more of the stem made the image portrait as it were. Its a good effort though and it’s always good I think to get out of your comfort zone now and again
Love the colours, amazing. The set up and the lighting is awesome too.
I agree with Allan about the glass - otherwise it's a fine shot!
Free week
Good colours, I like the one tulip with the missing petals. The background is really quite nice and had good light on it.
You could have just laid the tulips down on a background the same as the one you have used and then shot straight down. This makes composition a bit easier, as you can mess around, trying different things.
Great shot and as been said, it is good to get out of our comfort zone.
Not in your comfort zone you say?...well don't fight it Ian, you clearly have a knack....it's a cracker!
The colours are excellent, and while I can see what the others mean about the glass, it's still a first class, well composed and detailed still life image.
Very nicely done Ian!
Think you are selling yourself short there, love the image. Great detail and colours. Keep going I like it !
Wet - Lovely details and a great reflection
Free - Great lighting and colours, textures and detail I would agree about losing the glass though as it is a little distracting. Still a cracking image.
Cheers Jim
I'll walk the 2 miles back and try and straighten the gate up for you mate
I added vignette for effect. Looks more sinister
