The first picture is good but please edit that little white dot on the blokes chin, it glares out at me
Love the effect on the second photo, wonder if it would work as well on other metallic objects.
Monks on a bike... perfect for any caption competition.
No idea what I could enter now, the standard is too high too early!
(Maybe I'll just take a picture of some 18% grey card)

afternoon Tim,
I daresay "The Monks" would have been a superb entry to the previous (SP) competition
Well captured.Cheers,

Black is devoid of colour, that's why it's black
On the otherhand, white is every colour

Re: A Colourful View

I just had another look at the intro to this month's comp
I quote --
>This months theme is "Colour" as used in shop signs, Ad boards, banners, general environment ......<
I read this as implying the subjects should be man made objects, yet I notice a lot of natural items, mainly flowers, could we have some clarification.

I spend a lot of time in my garden so I include it as part of my general environment. My flower pic is from a rhodedenron currently in bloom in my back garden. If there were exclusions they should have been specified.

Re: A Colourful View

I agree with Lisa. There was no specifications as to what cannot be used.
Yes there are many flowers but the idea of "Colour" with banners is that "Colour" draws one in.
This is the same with flowers. It "catches your eye"

Clarification

Quote:

When I made the suggestion I had in mind that images would be about man made subjects as well and was looking forward to seeing how people would interpret it. However, all the monthly competitions have a very wide remit so that everybody has a chance to enter.
In the end it's Garry who will decide whether or not the entries fit the theme.

That's exactly how I read it Mike but the term "general environment" leaves it open to wide interpretation and that is what Gary likes to see so I guess all those flowers do have a place

Only problem is, its dissapeared. I hosted the photo on the the gallery at the photoportal and the server there broke two days ago so its been down ever since - currently being fixed.
Do you think I can get away with reposting the photo? - I'll host it at fotopic this time.
Or, maybe someone with the ability to can edit my post (I'm now locked from editing it) and change the URL to http://images.fotopic.net/ynpjc7.jpg

Yep - and he's wearing Kevlar-reinforced jeans. Most passengers in my car get by with brown trousers, I don't know what 'orrible fate he was expecting ...

This is Bury Lancashire - where Dobermans and Rottweilers go around in pairs for self-protection!
