Very sad to hear this Mark, I know I have been very guilty of not giving much critique but your excellent contributions will be very much missed.Hi all....
After a lot of deep thought, and this being my third year, I have decided to knock the 52 on the head.
Ive been stupidly busy with work and have not being enjoying the challenge of late. I posted a 4 theme catchup on two occasions and recieved very little n the way of of feedback.
Whilst I accept that I may appear to be logged in due to phone and PC log ins,its not always the case.
It also seems to have become a very serious 100% tit for tat feedback thread, which, altho I can understand to some extent, just isnt possible for me with me or any busy working folk.
Its a shame, because I nejoy the challenge, but for me, the fun has gone out of it this year......
Enjoy the rest of the year guys, but Im sorry to say, Im out..........

In what way?I agree on the comments
OK,
I have a full time job I have family, children, grandchildren but can still find 10 minutes here and there. I understand work, holidays, illness and more importantly apathy can get in the way, but the only way this can be fun is to join in contribute something other than heres my pictures.
In what way?
Well being my first year here, I'm still settling in, and cant comment on previous years, but I try to comment on as much as i can, normally when I post my weeks image, but it gets harder when people dont post for a few weeks and then post 4/5/6 images at once.Last year on the 52 most members would comment on the posts put in, but this year it just seems so few actually do comment.
Exactly. Although I do agree that the 2018 52 is not as active / interactive as per other years.WE are the 52 it can only be as good or fun as we make it,
Aaaaaaaand bring out the fisheye again!!On to week 29 ...
I'll post a theme as soon as I get Round to it
Thank you very much, mines a JD and coke!On to week 29 ...
I'll post a theme as soon as I get Round to it
I know! the days are flying by, it'll soon be Friday at this rate.Flippin' 'eck is it Thursday again?
Nooooooo...I know! the days are flying by, it'll soon be Friday at this rate.
So that makes tomorrow Saturday, It gets worseNooooooo...
but I thought Thurdays WAS the new Friday
I am guilty of post 2 or 3 weeks behind (it tends to be between June and July, because I'm so busy with work), I don't expect anyone to comment on those themes, only on the last one.but it gets harder when people dont post for a few weeks and then post 4/5/6 images at once.
Sleep? What is this thing of which you speak?Saturday? Please let it be Saturday, I need some sleep!
Something I need a good 8 hours of a night, and got around 1/2 that last night, getting up before the dawn in order that I could get my eldest to St Pancras for an early train to EuroDisney with her Dance School.Sleep? What is this thing of which you speak?

So if my comments today are incoherent, you'll understand.
True, trueNo change there then
What did/are you get/getting?Hi all.
After a short break due to my gear, I am getting back to the challenge. My D5100 annoyed me so much I just threw it in the bag and didn't think of taking any photos - battery dying without any indication, various errors etc. Luckily I have funds for new gear, so should start uploading within about 2 weeks or so... got a lot to catch up

I'm sorry to hear you are leaving Susie, but I totally understand where you are coming from,Unfortunately real life just got in the way, and now the school holidays are here I shall no doubt be busy with the grandsons.
Good morning all ...hanging my head in shame, I've just hopped in to say I'm sorry I've dropped out of the challenge. Unfortunately real life just got in the way, and now the school holidays are here I shall no doubt be busy with the grandsons.
I have managed to complete four full years, thank you so much everyone who has commented and encouraged me over that time, you've been amazing ...I just cant find the time lately and the enthusiasm to reciprocate. I literally haven't even put a photo on my computer for months ...I know, its not good but hopefully I can muster up some interest during the summer months.
I wish everyone the best of luck for the rest of the year ...it is a great feeling to actually get to that last week.
So sorry to hear you are leaving us, hope you will be back next year, enjoy the summer and the grandsons. If you do see a huge hairy biker with a Sony taking photos whilst in Newquay, please pop over and say hello, I am not half as unfriendly as I look!

Ah bummer. Been there mate. Forgot my body once (camera body not my body). Had all my lenses but nothing to put them on. I was livid.Sorry to see you drop out suzie, it's been great following your threads. You know where we are if you ever fancy returning.
On a separate note, travelled 2 hours today and got there NO MEMORY CARD! So my round shot will have to wait.
