Yes Dave, no selfies and keep it covered
I`m not sure yet, but it could be a jazz shot as they use their Tools of the trade. I will have a think though

his is no reflection on anyone,
Tool(s)
And you may have to think laterally for this ...
SnapBrilliant! I have just the image for tools that will also encompass the silhouette tech as well.
I have been saying this for the last three years doing the 52, I will try my best to comment on all images but it can be hard and yes it can be done. If I like or don`t really like an image I will say but nicely as we all have to learn from getting critique on our images. If I think your image is fantastic I Will say and why I think it is, if I think it could of been taken in a better way I Will also say that. One member who is having a well earned rest from the 52 was GREAT in his comments as he just told the truth and for me I loved that and thank him too. As has been said don`t take it personally with hard critique as we all want to help each other out in getting better at our photography. So carry on enjoying the 52 and getting and giving critique as even the long term 52 members can get good critique from the new comers
It doesn't matter, there are bound to be a few overlaps as the weeks / year progresses.So I am going to have to have a re think about week 2 as that coincidently comes under week 3's theme which is tools
If it was easy everyone would be doing itwhy is this never easy
@Gritty
Anybody can critique (or as I prefer to call it, feed back) a photo. If you like a photo, then you like it. You need to ask yourself, what is it that draws you too it, what are the elements that are grabbing you. You don't need to know if it follows the "rules". Although the "rules" do have a good history of working.
Just say what you think, listen to (or in this case, read) what others say, see if you can see what they are seeing, see if you agree.
But most importantly enjoy your photography and this fun challenge, that is the 52

One of my work colleagues, he is a complete tool.

Thanks Dave70D, we are all individuals and we all see things through different eyes. You are right, I love photography and I really appreciate your "Critique" on my previous post.I think anyone can give critique on photos even if they don`t know how to use a camera, everyone can see a different angle a shot. Now what I will say about you Heather is, at the end of the day you are a photographer who loves photography, so you can have a vision in your head on a type of image so to me you are good enough to give critique on any of the images
PS: On some of my images I might think that`s a great shot, but then someone might say OH no it`s to dark so with critique take what you like and want from it and leave the rest.

Hi Heather @Gritty. It's worth having a go at critiquing a few images, as it makes you look at them to understand what it is you like or dislike about them, which can them inform your own photography.
If you're worried about upsetting people, 1. Don't be, people shouldn't get upset at honest critique and/or 2. Maybe do the critique on some of the shots of the old hands on here. We've been doing it long enough to know ot take it in the vein it's intended (Look at the comments on my images which have pretty universally been "oh god he's at it again!").
Aww...thanks Dave!!
LC2, thank you so much I guess being new to all this and not wanting to make an idiot of myself I was reluctant too. I will look out for others universal comments on your postings.
Don't get hang-up about it. Heather @Gritty. We all newbie once. When I rekindle this hobby some 9 years ago after a long break away from the old film SLR days I was, like you, join this challenge on day one and I learn a lot since or none at all some would say. It took me a few weeks before I post my first comment as I wasn't too keen or happy to 'judge' others photos with next to none experience or know-how.
What Tim @LC2 said, start with some the old hands.
@Gritty I know where you are coming from. When I first joined a camera club they had critique sessions and I felt completely out of my depth. As others have said, if you like an image just try and think what it is you like about it, or what you think you might change to make you like it more. As you read more critiques, you'll get the hang of it more, but everyone here is very friendly and supportive. It's a great way to extend yourself.
