Abandoned

ISO 100 28mm f/22 1/13

This photo I entered into a contest where the theme is abandoned. Even though this field is used quite often, it always looks abandoned the second that everyone walks away. I shot it in color, but I thought that B&W was a better format for the theme and for this picture.

Sepia this time

I have entered this photo in a contest:

ISO 500 f/7.1 1/13 50mm

The theme of this contest is “-Scapes” so here is a seascape in a jar. When I edited this photo I put in sepia because I liked the glow. I thought that tone lent itself well to a seashore scene.

It is also available for sale here.

Cheers!

Smooth as Silk

Smooth as Silk, that is the theme for a photo contest I entered this photo in:

ISO 250 135mm f/9 0.6s

It is obviously cropped, but I wanted to keep the shadow in as I thought it made the photo a bit more interesting. I messed around quite a bit with my shutter speed when I was making this image. I wanted to show the motion, but not blur it so much that you couldn’t tell that it was a top.

Your critique is welcome, but wish me luck even if you don’t like the photo 🙂

Cheers!

Macro Contest I am working on

This photo is what I am busy working on today:

It is a macro contest. It has to be a nature image, but no flowers or critters. Any post-editing is fine. I can enter three images, the other two I haven’t taken yet 🙂

Thoughts?

Cheers!

Photos for Rejection, I mean Submission

Because what fun is taking pictures if you can’t have someone reject them?

Ha, ha, sort of. Anyway, I have two photos that I submitted today. The first is a robin egg photo. If you caught my earlier post, you know I was taking them this morning. I went out again this afternoon, to get what I hope is a better shot. This will go for judging to my camera club, and it has been edited. I use GIMP for post-editing.
