New Old Digital Challenge - Discussion Thread

Thanks Lindsay, now if only this had been DPOTY.

I'll PM later today (if I remember).
 
New challenge thread posted for the theme of "Party!" - get searching those archives folks!
 
Congratulations Toni and Paul - @ancient_mariner and @Donnie for a tie in the latest theme. As Toni has had previous winners etc, I'll pass it to Paul/Donnie to select our next challenge the - please PM me with your ideas
 
Congrats Paul, I eagerly await your choice.
 
I have the next theme from Paul - I'll post the thread in a couple of days when time permits
 
Sorry for the delay folks, I've been too preoccupied with the other challenges and trying to do some togging myself! New challenge thread coming very shortly
 
What do you think?

I have just managed to recover about 10,000 files from an old crashed hard drive, I only got the raw .NEF files. I am not a big post processor as you all know. but often they just need a click before posting.
 
I could always post the unedited RAW file I suppose, usually good enough. :)
 
If you load the NEF into software you can just export a jpg from it without editing. You'll find a raw file (whatever proprietorial format - new, or the Olly/Canon etc equivalents) won't actually render on screen.
 
It looks like Stan @rpn was the outright winner in the latest New Old Digi challenge, well done, it was a great image.
Now you need to suggest a theme for the next round please - no rush, just PM me when you think of something
 
:clap:stunning photo @rpn - I think I remember when you first posted it a few years ago too!

Yep, well deserved, I have to admit as soon as I saw it posted I did think it would be a damn difficult one to beat!
 
Thanks Lindsay @lindsay and everyone else taking part in this Challenge. That shot was taken back in Novemeber 2018 and according to Google it was Storm Diana, named by other Europe countries. IIRC it wasn't wet or raining that day so I was able to get quite close, along with many other photographers, to the harbour entrance breakwater pier.
 
Well done @John_L for the great character shot to win the latest New Old Digital; over to you to suggest the next theme please - PM me with your thoughts as and when
 
I have a confession - I had completely lost track of this challenge because I have been wading through the final stages of sorting out my late brother's estate.

So, a surprise bit of nice news this morning and grateful thanks to those who voted for my image.

Lindsay - I will put my thinking head on (as per Worzel Gummidge) and get back to you as soon as I can - but please be patient!
 
Well done Tim - a lovely image.
 
Tim has provided a new theme, which I've just posted. More of a tech theme than subject-related, which might elicit an interesting variety of content.
 
Thanks, @lindsay. What I had in mind with 'negative space' is images with unoccupied areas that are just as important as the subject itself. Less is more in a way. It's a style I like, but I'm not sure I have many good examples myself.
