Right, let me get this back on track!
Week 17 - Heat
I struggled for this one. It was a bit of an opportunist shot taken at the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, I spotted the hoses underneath the carriage, and in the absence of anything else thought it at least hit the theme. I had intended to have a proper go at landscape stuff with filters while we were over there, but spent the whole holiday as sick as a dog, so barely took the camera out... maybe next year eh?

Week 18 - Figures
My first ever Lego shot. Know the boy is of that age I knew I'd end up resorting to his toys sooner or later. It wasn't down to laziness or being stuck (honest), but it was the first thing that occurred to me when I read the theme. I turned it into a bit of a DOF experiment, but in the end opted for a gentle fall off.

Week 19 - Household.
Again my first thought upon reading the theme, Royal Household Cavalry, but restricted to shooting at lunchtime everything came out a bit flat so I messed about with the processing, settling on a film like look (to me) to try and give it an old holiday snap feel. I went down there a couple of times, and ultimately opted for this chap partly due to the classic facial hair he's attempting (he's only young, bless him), and partly due to the 'eyes right' thing he's got going on... Kinda reminds me of Windsor Davies'.
