Great shot. I want to reach out and touch it. Well seen, gorgeous. Thank you, the moss, if it is moss, was easy to see but I found it difficult to convey the damp environment in pictures, well out of my usual urban comfort zone! The long shots were as expected disappointing, the mist rising from between the trees looks like small bonfires and as for the waterfalls.  |

That is almost Sabattier like, practising for the obvious use of filters on the 19th? Slight slip into appraisals mode: I think it would look great printed or projected huge, looks a bit confused here.

Thanks zx9 I did deliberately confuse the image which in colour and was meh with the sports field behind. I have a feeling I did overlay another photo on top (probably one of my own texture shots) but for this one, I just wanted to enhance the chaotic feel to the gulls' frenzied take-off. I really must get out more! Ha! Went to town the other day and I did feel the benefit of it. |

Well, the first photo I'm going to start with is a snap I got from my first concert in August 19th, 1987 and for my second photo I'm going to show a snap I got on Sunday Sept 17th of a local (Winnipeg, Manitoba) Blues icon and for the third image, a snap I got as I was getting ready to leave the train station in Winnipeg, Manitoba on Sunday afternoon .. Cheers, Jack    |

Cheers, Jack View AttachmentView AttachmentView AttachmentJack, the pic. of DB is great and for a first concert session you must have been over the moon. The third one has wonderful light, not at all the sort of picture that I think of you doing, a very classy architectural light. I know you know me well enough to take that as a complement but just for others reading this thread. |

As for the third snap, I think that, as I age, my fauxtography is starting to, not slow down but, meander a bit subject wise and looking for and trying to make various types of 'light', amongst of aspects of fauxtography a more integral part of the subjects Cheers, Jack |

Then having to force my self to at least have a go is good, gets me out of a sameness rut, I hope. |

The month is galloping past and I still haven't forced myself to start scanning some of my old ilford films. When I bought my 5D I'd come from a b&W diy world and was fully expecting to continue that way, even bought a printer good for b&w, but stuck with colour. Lightroom only throws up 23 conversions. This is one such.  DSCF0495.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

I may have put this one on APForum but although it is a favourite location I don't recall posting the colour version so maybe it was also for a mono theme. It is a lot better in b&w !  DSCF1204.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

End of plumbing the mono conversion depths. This, or a version of it, has definitely been on APForum. It is a silhouette of a little Egret walking on wet sand seen from Conwy RSPB. Exposure details say 1/6400 s @ F8. I probably couldn't see it due to the glare! Conwy is best on a cloudy day because for most of the time the sun is dead ahead.  BV9R3140.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

Yer, some of the themes that I have been setting of late, helped by suggestions of others here, have been far outside my usual range of subjects. Then having to force my self to at least have a go is good, gets me out of a sameness rut, I hope. Luckily (or, perhaps, not), Keith, I have never given myself "themes". Back in the day, I had assignments from newspapers / publications I was shooting for, but, for myself, I would just shoot things that captured my eye ... which I still do  . I used to mention to folks on AP, who were stuck or in a rut or hadn't had the urge to take photos, to do what I did, always carry their camera with them and take snaps of stuff that caught their attention ... not sure whether it ever worked  Jack |
