Because mine are normally so good straight out of the camera I am using the competition to get some Lightroom practice
Good answer - Mike

In an attempt to encourage more entries, I am planning to place an advert in the current Weekly Competition (if the idea works out o.k.)

The usual place for discussion / repartee etc.

I will stop reading this, when the first entry has been submitted.

A slightly intimidating title but what I mean is any outdoor art (2D or 3D) in the public domain.

So not inside a building and not located in a private back garden that is not accessible to the general public.

This could be a piece of sculpture, a mural carved in brickwork or stone, a decorative portico, a war memorial, The Pyramids (if you happen to live in downtown Cairo), Nelson's Column etc. etc.

I think that there are many subjects to choose from.

Any questions, just post here until the first entry is submitted, thereafter by PM.

Usual Fortnightly Competition rules apply - 800 max on the long side etc. etc.

Please supply EXIF data.

Competition ends on Wednesday 27th May at 6.00pm BST.

Have fun

I have an idea for the next Fortnightly Competition that should be suitable for everyone now that the weather is better and the days longer in the northern hemishere.

I aim to post the next competition by 8.30am tomorrow (14.05.2009).

Wow - many thanks Prieni for my 1st Place and thanks for your usual considered judging.

Having decided to go for the impact of a poster type of image, I was not sure if the posterization effect would be popular

Photographing fruit sounds really simple but I think that in reality it is surprisingly difficult.

I really liked Martin's 'unzipped orange'.

p.s. My orange was freshly cut for the photograph and then eaten shortly afterwards

Jessops must be thinking :_

" we have had these Pentax grips for 18 months and shifted none and now, despite being in an obscure part of our website they are our fastest selling line"
