No offence to Jack's photographic skills, but I think AlanW will have something to say about that! I'm keen to see what both our resident street 'specialists' submit.

Yeah, but Jacks photos have real guns in them (and sometimes naked ladies as well )

Is that better than naked men and corpses?

I've just looked through my photos and I don't have a single shot that would fit this months competition. And on top of that my 17-85IS lens has died so I may not be able to take one either!

How about buying a disposable camera and shooting with that? Trying something completely different might help with the creatvie phase, and you can have the negs scanned when you get them developed.

In other words, there are no excuses!

You're as bad as my wife coming up with silly suggestions like "why don't you use another one of your lenses!" lol

My standard 18-55 is on the camera at the moment but I'm still sulking because my other lens broke in the middle of a wedding shoot.

Thanks for the accolades Rhys but, like N_N says, I believe you may have spoken prematurely and, after
looking at the entries thus far, that is regardless of what Mr. Wilson might enter , IMVVHO

After browsing the pics (so far) I think David (Hotblack) or Luis(FujiSigmaNolta) or AntSmith may have
it sewn up .....................possibly

Cheers,

Jack

Hi N_N,

I am very curious, myself, to see what Mr. Wilson will post and, as mentioned in above reply, I
believe there are three(3) serious contenders already and, hells bells, I might re-enter my "skin
and bones' pic

Cheers,

Jack

Yes, but Rhys, you can't forget the Fake Guns and the Naked Man .....

Cheers and, to use Tim F's old sig line: "get out and get shooting"
