Opppps, good point
Over - A nice bit of colour coming in that sky, and I really like the warm colour of the bricks and roof tops, nice
Stark works well for me, Richard, with those bold backlit red tones standing out well against the darker surroundings, and I like the colours and tones in your latest image as the sun roses over the horizon.
over the straightened image does look better and I like the colours the sunrise gives the sky
i do like Over.. im not one for sticking to verticals but its your photo.. great capture with the changes in the sky
Over is a great photo, straightened verticals or not... I like the glow on the bricks and the nice colours from the sunrise
Week 5 Age...
Went to Stonehenge this weekend past for the Fiance's birthday (she likes old things which is a bonus for me).
Given the suns position I am pretty happy with this.

It certainly does look sharp. I wouldn't like to brush against it while walking past.

Nice sharp contrasty image for AGED
Nice aged bit of rock you have for SHARP.
See what I did there.

Age(ing) - a pleasing shot of stonehenge and very fitting for the theme.
Sharp - another good find for the theme.
Liking your Stonehenge shot, interesting sky.
Sharp is a cracking shot, I like that a lot
Like this one Richard - perfect for theme. I'm amazed that you managed to get the shot with no-one else around the stones
Hi Richard,
Age - Works nicely for me. With the position of the sun, brightening up the shadows on the stones would look un-natural, so this works No hordes of camera totting tourists either
Sharp - You wouldn't want to get caught on that would you... Nicely taken.
I'm envying you your locale...
Both right on theme! I like the stonehenge shot, looks otherworldly!
Stark - I like this the contrast between the light and dark and the bright drink is really good and I like the pattern on the table too
Over - Lovely sunrise and interesting looking houses, maybe could do with the foreground either going really dark to make a silhouette or lifting so you can see a little more detail
Age - Very nice some good dark shadows cast by the stones
Sharp - Sharp in focus too. As my Mum used to say "you could have someones eye out with that"
Sharp
Looks a bit like a dinosaur tooth (fossil).
Flint is definitely sharp.

Guard(ed) - well it works for me, pretty good shot from a mobile phone.
Thick - nice portrait shot, thats well exposed. I do like your comedy take on the theme.
Guard, I like the angle you have taken it at, it works well.
Of all your shots that are well on theme even the Thick fun one. This one of Stonehenge is fantastic imho, great lighting, shadows and colours are just great a shot to be proud of so well done
Guard - good image which implies guarding the tree, angle helps with this.Focus just about makes it all the way down, but I feel it helps the image.
Thick - another image with the theme portrayed nicely.
Guard is a stonker. who'd ever thought of taking a shot like this? An absolute beaut. My favourite for the theme.
Thick ... cracks me up
Hi Richard,
Guard(ed) - Hmm. Like the idea, but perhaps not the execution... Dunno. Maybe a bit cliché, but I think I would have shot from the floor upwards. Mind you, then you would lose the snow. As I said... Hmmmm.
Thick - I like that you've gone for human interest in the image rather than just the thicket.
Age - Fantastic shot of stonehenge
Sharp - does indeed look like a sharp bit of flint, not what you want on an interior great focus too.
Guard - a good find and an unusual PoV
Thick - a fun shot and fits the theme although I couldn't comment on the thicko suggestion.
Guard works well for me, Richard, especially as cold weather like that can be a challenge for our cameras, and the browns of the tree and the guard contrast well against the snow for a simple but striking image.
'Triple Thick' made me chuckle when I read your explanation, and a touch of humour is no bad thing in the 52 It's a fun image and I like the colours and the angle you used.
Abundance - well done on trying a new technique and from the sharp details in the first few rows it was clearly working. The OOF figures further back help to accentuate the distance and the size of the 'crowd' so I think it works very well
Abundance - That's a lot of figures I like that they are off in the distance
Abundance .... sure is! I would like to see the figure in the forefront in focus, or placed somewhere else. Or maybe there is some relevance to him I'm missing.
Abundance
I like it, there's definitely an abundance of little Lego people.
I've got to agree with @d00d, the centre figure could do with not being there, leaving the three in the (new) front row in sharp focus. Bang on for the theme though with plenty of vibrant colour
Could I point you at section two of this "Howto":
https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/tutorials/adding-a-linky-to-your-post-or-page.109/
As currently your links (at least the one for abundant) takes you to the start of your first page. Not really an issue when there are only a couple of pages, but later in the year it will become an irritation which may result in fewer comments.
Abundance - lovely bright colours, image would work much better if the focus was on the front lego mini figures and then fading out as you look towards the back of the shot.
