The first and last are my choices. The flower seems to be illuminated internally!

Fantastic set of shapes and textures. The 1st one and the pebbles and pottery in particular.

I like all of these, they work very well as a set with the exception of number 9 which throws me off a little due to the small in focus area.
EDIT: Probably more accurate to say that the background on the left side is a little too busy.

All the gear with no idea

Back in the 1970s I used to take the scouts camping there. It hadn't been open long for public visits and some of its features have long since gone.
I liked the place so much I produced a film, shot on Super 8, and during the lockdown I converted it to video.

Fascinating to watch John - some things look identical, other quite different. The Vineyard is in a worse state now and I think that greenhouse has gone One part of the island has been given over to the Dorset Wildlife Trust as a nature reserve, the rest of it is managed by the National Trust and the Castle (and a few acres) is leased to the John Lewis Partnership. The soft cliff erosion is more notable each time we visit, with more and more trees slipping down to the beach and the pottery is more and more eroded with rounded edges and smaller pieces all the time.
Thanks for sharing

Nice set, but the last one is my favourite by some margin. Lovely.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

as already said a fine set. 5 for me as i keep going back to see if i can find the dividing line is for the reflected half.
Wow - I hadn't seen it that way Joe but now I look again I see what you mean! There is no reflection in this shot - it is simply a fallen tree stripped of its bark, the "ripple" texture is completely natural, as is the lighting. Here's the original (no editing)...as already said a fine set. 5 for me as i keep going back to see if i can find the dividing line is for the reflected half.

Thanks Kris - that shot nearly didn't make it in as I missed the intended focus point, but as we all know - it isn't just sharpness that makes a photo

A beautiful set of abstracts, LennyB. 4-8 I find especially appealing, and within those, 5, 7 and 8; sand and roots being my pick of the lot - so much to see and/or imagine (have you noticed the bird?).
