Fortnightly competition No. 32 Your Weather
Fortnightly Competitions – Weather This is a superb entry, thank you all for entering. The judging has proved difficult with so many fine images and not a weak one in the whole entry. The easy way to do it would have to make three equal firsts and award everyone else highly commended, but that wo...

But she would have cold hands and wet feet. Nasty stuff snow. Yes, but she needs to experience the numbing discomfort herself though! Having lived a tropical childhood she's only seen snow on TV! I tell a lie, we were snowed in at Amman airport on the way back to Addis once:?:shock:. I kid you n...

Yes, I kept chewing my nails, until I got some promises from the comment thread. :lol: Last days have been full of damned bad luck in my life. So I am a bit out of energy for the competition. I hope you forgive me when my comments are lacking sth or are too much carried away by emotions. I didnt f...

Fortnightly Compet. COMMENTS # 33 - STAIRS
David, I even mentioned, that the stairs may be under the snow. It is enough, if it is somehow understandable that there should be stairs. Even those who live in bungalo leave their beloved place sometimes, dont they ?:roll: I am quite sure, that you are all able to find sth interesting! :) An...

Fortnightly Compet. COMMENTS # 33 - STAIRS
David - we drove back that way when we visited Ludlow and the view of Clee was great as it had a this layer of cloud that followed the contours exactly making a halo round it but once on the hill we were in the dratted cloud and saw nothing. Spooky place Clee Hill. The village is really odd and I...

That's pretty amazing Hefty :) Do you just invent the pattern yourself or they available somewhere? How do you get the folds to fold nicely? I've always liked doing origami and paper craft so I happen to have several pattern books I've acquired over the years - this was from one of those. I can copy...

Crikey - I was so busy reading your comments on the various entries that I nearly forgot to look at the results :!: Many thanks Ralf for selecting my entry as the winner and for setting a challenging competition. I am at work still at the moment but later on, when I am back home, I will choose...

Fortnightly competition #34 - comments LONG EXPOSURE
David you beat me to it, what constitutes a long exposure - over a second or maybe over 5 seconds, that'd be a challange :wink: I did spell out that for the purpose of this competition it is greater than 1 s. We went on holiday several years back to Spain and in the morning, even though there was...

I've just got back from the Scottish highlands after a few days away so I'm looking at these for the first time. Nice work Paul, that's a great manipulation job. I'm sure Warhol would have approved. david

My Mum loved the Trip we borrowed for a little while and was most upset when it had to go back. That was in about 1987. Anything more complicated and she got confused. I still have her replacement which was an all singing all dancing Pentax (not my influence!) P&S but I have never used it. I oug...

Weekly Competition # 136 - "Suffering"
I just entered the one image that depicts the suffering of a whole family including the tiny baby and evokes immeasurable pain whenever I look back through my images - but it was taken on my mobile phone as I wasn't allowed my 'big camera' in the room - is that OK? If not just ignore my entry.

Weekly Competition # 136 - "Suffering"
Pauly's work is brilliant, but rarely hinges on 'suffering' as the central theme... he treats his subjects with dignity and respect which sees their humanity come across, ot just their predicament. I think the theme HAS to be interpreted loosely, creatively. There are several ways of doing this w...
