LC2's Cosplay & Railway Shoehorns for 2019 - Week XLVIII - (Cos)Play(ing)
- Thread starter LC2
- Start date
I was going to do similar as I am on the flight path for the airport i work at, but now there are 2 of these I will ned to thank of something else. Nice shot, could maybe be improved with a little more exposure 
I did (selected it first) a little. I didn't want to push it too far though.
Smooth will come later when I've thought of something fitting
I'm not sure the plane is all that sharp, but then I've never been convinced about the 70-300L on the 80D at the long end, but cba to fiddle with the FMA as they rarely get used these days.Ta Dave, it does work against teh sky, but only because I was able to get light shining on the plane itself. It was a case of taking a reasonable number of take-offs and looking through to see what was lit the best.
Hi Tim, I'm on a marathon catch up.
FREE week, the stand out image for me is the Monty Python one, its definitely unusual and eye catching, although I do love the expression on Tinkerbells face!
ENTRANCE I like the fact you've posted two complete opposites, the Tate Modern reminds me more of sixties style ...well that bit does anyway, such a contrast with the detail in the station entrance.
YOUNG these youngsters sure like dressing up don't they, I definitely like the closer crop, it's so much better, its annoying when people get in the way
FOOD I like the added history, a plain simple image works well.
SMOOTH awaiting image
ABOVE Well that's handy sitting in your garden taking a shot for the week, I guessed there would be some planes, we don't see many here. It's a good clear shot, the plain sky sets it off well.

Thanks Carl
I wouldn't go that far, but I do like the light on the plane vs the brooding sky.
Cheers Dominic. The light is what makes it, otherwise it's just a boring shot of a plane
I'm busy doing catch-ups too! if you liked the shots for Free and Young, you should like this week's too
A cracker of a shot Tim!
As others have said, the plane really pops against that moody sky....fab light, great contrasts and nice, subtle processing.
I think it's plenty sharp enough too, with some very nice details (although I can't view it on Flickr....seems to be broken at the moment).

Food - I like it. Do we class these as shoehorns or just thinking outside of the box Works for me
Above - that also works. Bang on theme, and looks really sharp

Week XIV - Smooth (Catch-up)
The passage of many thousand feet have smoothed these tiny pieces of artwork.
These are some of the work of Ben Wilson, whose tiny chewing gum artwork adorns the Wobbly Bridge.

Who did your make-up?
That lipstick needs some work....but I feel that this may be the least of your problems!!!
I'm only kidding Tim, you're braver than me, bravo for showing this image!
It's fun and horrendously entertaining, and your pose/expression?....hilarious!
Your 'smooth' catch up image is top notch!
Very creative, and well taken.
I'm ashamed to admit that I have never walked across the 'wobbly' bridge yet....but if I do I will definitely look out for this....if it's still there!

Well... Sory it's taken a few weeks to get back to the 52, I've been busy editing shots from a few conventions.
Somewhere in the region of 2000 shots to start with, so...
Anyhow...
To be fair, I don't think any other POV was viable. Something for the July meet @Dave70D ?
The wobbly bridge is part of my walk to work, so I guess I've had plenty of chances to look at them, but I bet many / most people miss them as they'd be looking at St Pauls, The Tate Modern, or along the Thames.
'sfunny, I've had that reaction a lot. (The unseen bit). Didn't come out too badly for a selfie on the phone.
I did most of the makeup. It was a first attempt, I'm a bit better at it now. The lipstick isn't actually smudged enough!!!
I've now actually worn that cosplay out in Bristol...
I've not seen Ben doing any more artwork recently, but the bridge is being worked on at the moment, so maybe that's why. The art is still there, albeit slowly wearing away.
Cheers Stan. Not the easiest shots to take on a busy Saturday either.
Re Smooth - I do like to try to bring something new to the party every now and then
I'm working on a Tank Girl cosplay too. Not ready to show off here yet though.
It takes far less confidence to do cosplay than it does to take photos of strangers. I bet you could.
His artwork really does brighten the place up. London's answer to Banksy perhaps?
If any of you are in London on the mornings of the Friday / Saturday of MCM (24-25/5) you might spot me wandering through Waterloo or on the Jubilee / DLR dressed as Harley.

Hi Tim,
Hot - Jeez! I nearly fell on me perch!! Great fun shot and I'm sure it fits the theme (in your head)
Smooth - A cracking triptych. I never knew they were there. An excellent interpretation of the theme.

Well, I can't un-see that.
Creative and well taken though, so well done!
Smooth is cool, not something I've seen before so it's very interesting.

, I like the fact you have left the strong light source from the top right but perhaps a little foreground interest might work.
