Fortnightly competition 93: "Two"

Many thanks to Chris for setting a great subject that was open to some wonderful interpretations. Thanks also for your very prompt excellent reviews and judging. Congratulations to Barrie for the wining shot and everyone else for another set of diverse and well crafted images. It is great to b...

Fortnightly competition 93: "Two"

Well done to the top three and to Chris for his judging. A hard comp to judge in the end but I think I agree with the result. My entry was a retake of a photo I'd taken a couple of days before the competition was announced. Not sure why the fortnightly always attracts far fewer entries than the w...

Fortnightly competition 93: "Two"

Well my money was on "It takes two to tango". Thank you Chris for your time in setting the competition and in judging such close entries. I'm just back from a few days away, so I'm hoping I can set up number 94 tomorrow. Thanks again Chris.

Apologies for absence from competitions

I would just like to put up my apologies for not supporting the recent fortnightly and weekly competitions. It is not that I don't enjoy them. I think they are a great fun and provide a great learning experience for both new and older members. Getting the chance to review such wonderful picture...

Fortnightly competition 94 "Tree"

Thats Tree, as in branch and leaves, not Three, as in the one after Two. I'm just back from the English Lake District and noticed how many magnificent, large specimens, of all sorts of trees they have across there. So I'm looking for anything tree related, could be a single tree, it's bark eve...

Fortnightly competition 94 "Tree"

My thanks to those who took the time and made the effort to enter the competition. Also may I say sorry to those who may be new to the forum and were unaware of the fortnightly competition rules, but to be fair to the others I have had to exclude those entries with no exif data supplied. ***** ...

Fortnightly competition 94 "Tree"

Congrats Darskies, thanks for the judging Barrie, You're probably right, not tree-ish enough, trees are a fabulous method of carbon capture. I think farmers can get subsidies for keeping trees (amongst all the other subsidies they get). Carbon dioxide in the air captured by the tree, carbon red...

Discussion for Fortnightly Competition 95 "Texture"

This business of using tectures has arisen elsewhere and of course goes back as far as perhaps using Paterson's texture screen negatives. In principle, all images on Pentax User should be Pentax images. Adding a Photoshop texture would be OK, but in the context of a competition "Textures" does us...

Fortnightly Competition 96 "Heritage"

Junior showtime Proof that cars tend to look better in their 50s than most human counterparts. John Arnold in action at Brands Hatch on June 30 in his 1959 Elva Formula Junior. Taken in colour, but converted to mono because I like doing that when drivers don open-face helmet and goggles to rac...

Fortnightly Competition 96 "Heritage"

Sorry, result later than planned. Well a great crop of entries in terms of both number of entries and quality given the miserable weather which could have encouraged only the brave to go out to take photographs. A mixed selection of subjects to choose from and decide which one. Please remember ...

Discussion for Fortnightly Competition 96 "Heritage"

Oh sorry, I've browsed through the rules, but haven't found any of these restrictions. Sorry again. Will keep it in mind for the next time. Well you've got plenty of time for an allowable submission in this one still (regular users don't normally get a second chance!) From that link you say y...

Monthly Competition #1 - Night Shots discusion

As happened when the still running 'Heritage' competition (please don't forget it, you have 'till Wednesday!) was announced someone almost immediately posted a picture in which the EXIF data indicated it was taken some time ago. The same thing has happened here with the 'Night' competition, so just ...

Monthly Competition #1 - Night Shots discusion

The same thing has happened here with the 'Night' competition, so just a reminder that the intention is that you have to go out and take the photograph after the competition is announced. Back catalogue entries are no no's! To be fair, it wasn't taken at night either!!! :lol: However, to her cred...

Monthly Competition #1 - Night Shots discusion

We're about halfway through, so time to start planning those night shots! Aye been doing plenty of planning, and when I get back next week and my grubby mits on my camera I bet none of them come out anything like my plans :lol:

Monthly Competition #1 - Night Shots discusion

There didn't seem to be much activity for the first couple of weeks and then lots at the end so perhaps there is enough interest for it to be fortnightly? I suspect that might have been to do with the nature of the subject matter of this particular competition. It was only towards the end of the mon...

Weekly competition 261 Wide angle

EXIF data must be included. - How do I get EXIF data from a P50, when it does not generate any? Geoff, you can enter the exif data (or in your case, camera settings!) manually in the photo information form.I often have to do this even with digital pictures, if I have downloaded from Flickr and the...
