Small: Great capture of the Swan and Cygnets they are so cute and fluffy.
Snappers Choice: Cropped version for me it has more of a dramatic fell to it.

Week 26. Mother Nature.
This Lion is carved onto the side of the famous United Reform Church which is part of the English Heritage Site of Saltaire in West Yorkshire. Mother Nature has given him a spot of her own kind of Acne!

Lovely picture, nothing else I can add really, I like it
Baby Swans - can't miss
Looks like Dad
Love the shot (the crop is the stronger version imo).
Action, expression, determination. The image tells a story
Apologies for the late catch up. But once again, thank you all so much. I value all your opinion and critique vast amounts.

Hi David
Nicely spotted and linked to the theme. Interesting placement of the lions head in the Image. I like the texture.

Difficult lighting conditions there.
Would it have been possible to do one of:
1. wait for more light on him
2. use lights to illuminate him on the right
3. use a reflector to give him more light on the right
Hits the theme well, but the lighting needs working on imo.

Really unusual - and not in a bad way. I like the way that the head seems to be lurking in the shade - and nicely linked to the theme
Thank you all. It was a bit of a shoehorn on the subject if I'm being honest.

Thank you. It is processed like that to be honest. I was aiming for a "With the Beatles" half and half shadow effect but couldn't get it so I was happy with it. This was my favourite attempt. I actually edited the moss out at first but then thought I could use it for Mother Nature on here went with the moss zits.

Ah fair enough,I had to google that to understand the effect you were after. Difficult without complete control of the lighting I feel.

Would some additional PP helped achieve the "With the Beatles" effect? My first thoughts would be the gradient filter in LR which you could drag from the right across to the left until happy and play with the various exposure tools?

Week 27. Signs
As I have been struggling for inspiration I submit a newly edited archive this week. Taken on the platform of on Haworth Station, part of the Keighley Worth Valley Railway last year. I suppose it's a bit of a shoehorn too as the intended subject was the passenger and the signs a nice extra.

No, it's not a shoehorn to me either. Nice processing although for me i'm a bit unsure about the 'softness' in the grass and foreground as it looks a bit to 'smooth' if you know what I mean (but that's personal taste and doesn't detract from a great image with a story to tell).

Week 28. Secure. (or not as the case may be)
No Secure devices please!
The misery guts' on Central Pier at Blackpool making very clear that they don't approve of romantic gestures.

Don't mind at all. The Pier does have a curve at the end. You can see it better on the below pic taken just after. There's a rogue padlock there too if you look closely.
