Cool, it's good to have some places like that to go to regularly, really nice catching different seasonsJust bought annual passes for YWP so it might pop up once or twice.

Take a deep breath, grab a whiskey and go lie down in a darkened room, it'll soon pass honestlyThat's gone on the wrong thread, it should be on the 2016 discussion thread, its no good I'm all mixed up
Welcome to the forum and the 52 of 2017 JamesSign me up!
Its good fun, and "makes" you make an effortI've never done anything like this before, but would like to dip my toe in
That's what I'm hoping I spend too long reading about photography and talking about photography and not actually enough time taking photographs!Its good fun, and "makes" you make an effort
Not sure what level you are at, but if you need help or advice, there is plenty of very experienced photographers taking part,spend too long reading about photography and talking about photography and not actually enough time taking photographs!
I've been taking photos for a few years and belong to a camera club, so I'm not a beginner, but still learning all the time.Not sure what level you are at, but if you need help or advice, there is plenty of very experienced photographers taking part,

There is a word you need to learn that word is "Shoe horn"and possibly outside of genres I would normally choose.
Ah... that sounds along the lines of the camera club mix and match which is a bit like snap - trying to match a photo to one that's been projected.... sometimes it's a little tenuous! Should be funThere is a word you need to learn that word is "Shoe horn"
If you can't fit the theme, take a sideways look at it

Welcome back Chris, life unfortunately does this, getting in the way of our free time and hobby !!! will be good to see you back in the 52 in 2017If acceptable I would like to give it another go next year. I had to leave the forum for a while due to commitments.
Truley missed the weekly challenges though and the comments and commenting all great fun and inspiring.
I'll try and post weekly or just pop by to say hello.
Christmas wishes to one and all, happy clicking and here's to a happy 2017
Chris
Absolutely Chris, and just jump in as when you can tooIf acceptable I would like to give it another go next year. I had to leave the forum for a while due to commitments.
The more the merrierHi folks if it is ok with you all, then I`d like to try this.
Up to you, you can just link from your own flicker account if you want to.So do I join the 52/2017 Flickr and upload that way.
No problem, just ask away if you are still not sureThanks, I will try not to screw it up, but have to learn
Hi David.Am I right in thinking, now I have set up my Thread, that is where I post all my shots in when the theme is picked to start ?
To the people who are just starting with the 52's, I'll tell you what I did long ago and told no one. I became member back in 2007 not hardly knowing anything about photography but loved getting out and taking photos. I started the 52's it must have been around 2010, I think before that I support a local birding forum. Anyway in 2010 I began the 52's and really was very interested and the theme was First Light and I went to a local wood and took a photo of a tree bud just opening, I loved it and the comments were very positive. Then of course along came a comment from someone, can't remember who and it doesn't matter but I took the comment which was picking up on the photo how it could be improved and I unfortunatly didn't see it like that and I walked away from the forum for 10years, did other things but it always bothered that I didn't try to do what the person suggested and wasted 10 years of learning.
So, from my experience don't take a comment to heart, if someone suggests to alter a part of your photo, try it and see how you like it and if you don't perhaps just say thanks but I like it the way I've done it.
I came across lots of lovely people on different forums but something kept drawing me back to this one and here I am, no regrets.
Don't worry, we've all been new to posting in the forum, and we have the scaly one who can be poked into fixing mistakes.Thanks Tim, I will try so hope I don`t make to many mistakes.
As Shirley says, you will get comments on your images.
We are generally a friendly bunch here in the 52, but we will point out where *we* think something could be done differently.
Please, please take them in the spirit that they are intended, we're not picking holes (regardless of how tactless we might be), but simply trying to suggest different approaches.
I know I've benefited immensely from the suggestions posted in my thread over the past couple of years.
Full time job that Timand we have the scaly one who can be poked into fixing mistakes.
It was Friday, but traditionally this year it has been Thursday afternoon. with the occasional Friday.Think I have missed it but what day do the theme for the week get posted?
