Weekly Competition #61 Bridge(s)
Wow that was an interesting read. Didn't cause as much fuss as the new site did though. It was a light hearted comment and I entered because I was told it might be a good idea. First and last time though. Sorry if I haven't used proper English. Anyway back to admining. :oops: Anyone want to comment ...

Weekly Competition #62 A Touch of Red
David has done well and hopefully will put back his other comments over the course of the next week. One of the perils of posting one long critique is that it can all be lost if anything goes amiss. I know, I've had it happen. Guidelines are provided in the appropraite sticky in this forum sectio...

Weekly Competition #64 Mysterious
I set off on my push bike at 6:15 this morning and reached my destination 40 minutes later just as the light and the atmosphere was just right. Everything was perfect right up until I pressed the shutter... dead battery:x I had removed the grip to save weight for the ride and made the mistake of tr...

Weekly Competition #65 Desktop Backdrop
Just for completeness here are all my comments for this competition for those that like to have all the comments in one place. Result Comments Thank you all very much for your submissions. Within some subjective constraints I think they would all work as backdrops which is a terrific achieve...

Fortnightly competition #1 Vistas
I know technically according to the new competition rules as the judge, I’m not obliged to comment on entries, but I do feel the need to provide some feedback so here goes. In fact on reflection, formulating thoughts about the pictures seems so intrinsic to the process of judging that it makes me th...

And third place goes to Malo1961 for a different take on the subject, and for making me smile! Huhhhhhhhh :?: :lol::lol::lol: Thanks Andrew. To tell you the truth, I almost withdrew my entrie for this round, for several reasons. First: I came to the conclusion a 800 px limitation doesn't do any real...

Fortnightly competition #1 Vistas
I know what you mean about the 'extra's', but at first I wasn't happy about the shape of the pic, so tried to fill in, maybe didn't quite work. My planned 'Vista' was across the roof-tops of Glasgow. I can get access, through work, to the roof of a very tall building in Glasgow, but on b...

Weekly Competition 68 - Childrens Expressions
Parents are asked to sign notes of permission to the school these days. Yes, it can be worse still in some UK schools, I was not allowed to take a camera to photograph my child's School Christmas nativity play! I don't want to hijack the thread...but ...can anyone remember David Hamilton. In the...

Weekly Competition 68 - Childrens Expressions
Hello Haworth! Don't worry, this forum is one of the least 'cliquey' ones I've seen. They even tolerate continental Europeans here, would you believe. Maybe it's just 'bad luck' on kacsoisti's part that he/she won on the first entry. On the second entry he/she would have had a history already....

Weekly Competition 68 - Childrens Expressions
Although I did not enter this time,kids now grown up, I was under the impression that entries were expected from Pentax equipment. After all this is a Pentax User Forum. Would be interesting to know what other camera branded sites rules on this would be. Not taking anything away from the winners com...

Despite being unsure if having two competitions at the same time is a good thing or not I have made some comments on the entries so far just to get the ball rolling. Best wishes, Kris. Argee. Generally love the shot but slightly off put by the burnt out sun. Not sure how one would get around...

Nicely put together by GlynM! Coincidentally, the kit in this shot is exactly the same as what I used to shoot my entry! Many thanks. It is is not perfect but I had some fun putting it together although it did involve a few rude words at Photoshop's magic wand tool. You can see one or two blac...

You can see one or two black spots in the text on the greyed out camera Hi GlynM, I would really have never noticed those unless you had mentioned it. Not used my 35mm at infinity yet so don't know if mine's the same or not, but for the macro stuff I've done I thought it was pretty stunning. ...

Cheers for the comments Anvh.:) Initially I was going to submit one with a much narrower DOF (f3.5) where only the big quartz and the "crown" of pearls were sharp, and the rest was much more fuzzy, but I wimped out and used this less severe one. Maybe I should have gone the whole way to the o...

Not used my 35mm at infinity yet so don't know if mine's the same or not, but for the macro stuff I've done I thought it was pretty stunning. Out of interest, how did you 'tweak' the focus on the K10D? Is there an article / thread you can point me to just in case I find the same problem? It is no...

When you are standing in the chip-shop on a cold, wet, windy, winter's evening and emerge with your hot Mars-Bar wrapped in paper, then bite into it, feeling the super-heated melting chocolate squirt on to your tongue, and the gooey caramel ooze out on to your chin, you know it tastes good, damn goo...
