Weekly Competition No.25 - "Christmas!"
Oh dear lord! What has Christmas become?!?!? Some painting with light, and just a touch of Photoshop... Well, I had better put the real Nativity figurines back in place before I burn in Hell for this... or is it too late? :twisted: K10D, DA* 16-50 @ 29mm, f/22, ISO 100, 13s

Weekly Competition No.25 - "Christmas!"
Right, sorry that some of these are a little short and perhaps don't offer the constructive criticism I would normally try to give, but I'm late!!! Here's the judgement for this week's competition: Mongoose: I like this shot, nicely exposed, perhaps could do with the top of the arch included ...

Weekly Competition No.25 - "Christmas!"
Hyram: ..................but I would have preferred to see something in focus. :) Noted :!: Having got my tripod out of the cupboard for the first time in years, I realised that you cannot use an ordinary cable release on a K10D. With the tripod sitting on a squashy carpet, every time I press...

Congratulations for such detailed judging of such a mammoth number of entries! ChrisA: A very good nightshot were you pushed your equipment to the limits. Coposition wise i think you could crop off the lower half of the river to make it a bit stronger. The major comment i have is about the noise...

Could I trouble you (or someone else that sees the picture as noisy) elaborate a little on what you're seeing? ( so that you don't have to trawl back through the entries.) I can see a fair bit of noise in the sky, especially in the lighter parts just above the buildings and particularily on the lef...

Could I trouble you (or someone else that sees the picture as noisy) elaborate a little on what you're seeing? ( so that you don't have to trawl back through the entries.) The picture does look quite noisy on my monitor On this crop of the sky I can many pixels in various shades of green a...

Hi all, I agree, this is a .co.uk website and should be based on UK time . . . even if it is wrong (when compared to the rest of Europe). Yeah, but who has the standard that the rest of the World sets its watch by? :wink: Yay! For GMT 8) Yeah...yeah. And the rest of the world is driving on...

Weekly Competition No.27 'Abstract Plant in MONO'
MONO ABSTRACT PLANT Ikillrocknroll: I do like the dynamic shapes in this, the diagonals, contrasting droplets and DOF …but is a bit heavy in tones and a little soft. John Riley: a very unusual subject and a graphic gritty contrasty image, nicely cropped for impact, a limited tonal range but I ...

Weekly Competition No.27 'Abstract Plant in MONO'
Daniel Bridge: very dark and brooding image, reminds me of something from Star Wars, I like the dark background to this amazing shape but I find the out of focus blob at top distracting. Yes, I did think about photoshopping this out, but it seemed like too much hard work. :wink: It's the stem of t...

Weekly Competition No.27 'Abstract Plant in MONO'
Lilly, I don't want to cause a rumpus but I was wondering if you did the judging over different days. It strikes me that the comments on Clarky's picture are at odds with those of both Daniel's and Malo1961's. In Daniel's and Malo1961's you appear to like the dark background. In Clarky's you don't i...

Thanks for your comments Lilly - I quite agree with not knowing where the point of focus was. For some reason it doesn't seem so noticeable in colour. Congratulations too to Iceblinker on your well deserved win. Steve

Weekly Competition No.28 - "Watching the Watchers"
Sorry for the delay. Here are the results at last: Unlocker: We get to see the watchers at work here, but I don't feel there is enough focus on them to satisfy the theme well enough. Deecy: A great moment of concentration while the other guests look around and chat to each other. The light ...
