After seeing Glyn's entry I'm concerned that some eggs might be harmed during filming for this competition.

It sounds like a good idea Adrian. However with my basic PP skills I don't think it's one I would dare enter very often.
As the for original voting competition here: Wasn't that Stefan's brainwave. Now he seems to have vanished from our midst. Something or someone upset him and he huffed off. Does anyone know what that was all about?

I like the lake shot best but the unlike Cabstar I think the fence is cropped too closely near the top of the image. It needs more space to bleed away into the hazy distance of water.

You certainly get some great blue skies in Oz. I like the mono conversion in the last one Gary but I wonder if a bit less exposure in levels would add punch.

I have no wish to eggsagerate but Aiki's subject is attracting more comments than any other PUF competition I can recall and I'm a pretty hard boiled veteran at these.

Love the first one, in particular, David. Looks like an old monk!
Its appropriate you think it looks like an old monk Andrew because my avatar is an old monk.
Most people see a Madonna and Child. One of my camera club friends said it didn't work because the Madonna would be holding the baby on her left side, next to her beating heart. So here it is flipped to see if it works any better as an image.

Here's a trio of totally unrelated pictures from my collection, just for variety.
Rust and old paint

Tanfield Railway, Co. Durham where there is a collection of rusting industrial hulks alongside lovingly restored working steam enignes.


Towers at twilight

La Defense commercial centre in Paris which I find visually exciting.

Glen Torridon
[IMG]http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy273/Davidtrout2/GlenTorridon.jpg[/IMG]
The wild and beautiful North West of Scotland.

The first two reflect two of my key interests, modern architecture and old railway relics while the third shows my love of the Scottish Highlands, although I don't consider myself to be a landscape photographer.
C+C welcome.
