.. TP3 .. The challenge..!! 3nd and final challenge needs pickin .. 8pm thursday

[..MD..]

Right now let me explain.
myself and two other member's will be doing a mini challenge.

The clue is in the title..

There will be 3 people. doing 3 challenges. having 3 days to get a shot and then get the forum members to vote on them for 3 days " see what i am doing with the 3's here.."

The 1st challenge will start thursday night.
so that will be fri / sat / sun to get the 1 st shot.

few rules.

only 1 camera allowed . all will be using a 50mm prime.. " imagine a bird in flight shot with a 50mm:nuts: "
a flashgun and a tripod.

and to the winner a A3 print of there choice.. " another 3 "

i will be asking for someone to start this tommorrow night as its only fair if we dont know the challenge till the last min..

i will be one of the 3 the other will let themselfs be known if they want to..

also the victor get the crown of the TP3 winner..

this should be fun and get us all out of our comfort zones..

right i will keep you all imformed and to my competitors :razz:

Morning

Thats me up ready for a practise session! If this were a film, it would now be my montage scene.

- Cheesy music.
- Me, getting my gloves on, tightening my jacket.
- Clasping my bag tightly closed
- I open the front door, as the cold crisp air is attacked by my warm breath
- And as I take my first step onto the path, the camera zooms in as my foot cracks the fresh frost...

Queue the drums...

- Im really working it now, walking hard and fast, up Edinburgh's biggest hill, racing the sun
- Camera is panning around, high above, as I aim for my peak, the music is building
- I get to the top, the music is not only cheesy, its enough to make you want to shoot yourself, twice
- I am at the top, tripod set, and camera ready...
- Fade to black...
