n1kcy’s 52 for 2023 - Weeks 52 Favourite Image of 2023 (cc always welcome)

I do like the way they're posed.

It's like you asked if you could take their picture and they stood there while you did it.

Processing/colouring is nice too with that desaturated look.

 

[vanishedbob]

Two very photogenic sheep, very well captured.

 

[n1kcy]

Good start. Very nice perspective - and they look very friendly. Those close to me don't look so welcoming!

Some can be pretty tough!

I like a sheep, I live in Cornwall, there are a lot of sheep near me and in the winter you have to be careful not to run over them...or the horses, or the cows...all wandering free on the roads. Like this:

I love the sign

Week 2 Incomplete & Tech.
We flew to Lanzarote last Thursday (heading home tomorrow ).

I spent all week trying to find Incomplete & Juxtaposition together and now I have 2 and can’t decide which one I prefer.

 

[n1kcy]

 

[SimonH]

Both nice shots, but I think 2nd one for me.

 

[-Oy-]

Yep me too ^^^

 

[n1kcy]

Both nice shots, but I think 2nd one for me.

The light is certainly nicer in the 2nd one.

 

[n1kcy]

Yep me too ^^^

I think the 2nd one is winning me over too

 

[Peter123]

2nd one for me too.
Good idea for theme.

 

[Baloo]

I like number two best as well, both could do with more sheep in them imho!

 

[n1kcy]

2nd one for me too.

Thanks, Incomplete is actually a brilliant theme, I love the variety everyone has come up with

[Hadron]

2nd for me as well definitely. Great idea for the theme

Thank you

 

[Simonbrown16]

Second one for me too! Works really well for the tech with the completed and incomplete.

Thanks I spent quite awhile trying different compositions. I liked the way the incomplete roof points at the complete house

 

[LC2]

I was thinking Spain or the Canaries. Not too far out then

 

[overbez]

I think its unanimous - number 2 by a mile!

the repeating hollow cubes leading over and down to the finished house, lovely colours and light too. The fact it meets the theme and Juxtapostion too is icing on the cake

Spot on, gold star to you.

Thank you, I did spend quite a while at the site trying to find the best composition.

 

[Darkslinger]

I think that you picked the right image Nicky, Well composed. Must admit that I had to google where Lanzarote was though...

 

[StuartPearson]

Your area - they looks like you have asked them to pose and they obliged.
Incomplete - I get the juxtaposed more from the first image but the second is a better aesthetic image with nice light.

Glad I could help improve your geography

Thanks, I totally agree about the Juxtaposition in the first image.

Week 3 - Artifical.
Artificial food lit with artificial light.

 

[-Oy-]

Very plastic looking froooot - perfik!

 

[wornish]

Lovely image.

 

[overbez]

First thought was, thats a bit bright and reflective!! Which is presumably the look you were going for, to accentuate the artificialness of the fruits.

Good job!

 

[Darkslinger]

Great idea Nicky, I like the bright, offset lighting.

 

[HelenC]

I'm liking the shadow cast in this one. Works perfectly for the theme.

 

[Peter123]

Good idea and you've got the lighting just right to show that these are articial.

P.S. If you follow Cobra's instructions it means we don't have to scroll all the way through this thread to find the current weekly image. OK now but as the weeks add up it will take longer.

"Post the same image on the front page as your own thread, grab the link from the post number in your thread.
that is, right click the number top right and click copy link address.
This is all you need to add to the ( highlighted )word linky or whatever you choose, by clicking the double chain in the reply box
and insert in the top portion..."

Yep, artificial fruit and artificial light to go with it. Shooting for the theme, rather than personal tastes lol.

Great idea Nicky, I like the bright, offset lighting.

Thanks, I've been doing lots of stuff with shadows lately, trying to learn how to control and shape them.

Thanks for the tip, I had no idea, I will try that this week.

Week 4 Transparent

 

[Boots]

Very effective and creative!

 

[overbez]

Nice bright colours, lighting gives the shape of the glass nicely.

 

[-Oy-]

Yep - very well done Nicky!

 

[Kell]

Love that.

 

[ShinySideUp]

Very good, just like Leebert, such a coincidence. I wrote this on his thread too
