Hi, please can you sign me up? Have completed two 365 projects (kids) since attempting the 52 last. I'd like to take some photos of stuff that stays still. Cheers, Jon

So maybe that's my question. Anybody know of collage software/service, preferably free, that will cope well with the 365 Cheers

Hi all, Probably been asked on here before but I'm looking for ideas for what to do with the 365 project i've just completed of my son's first year. I'd like to put something on the wall and don't mind it being fairly big. I'll think about the medium (e.g. canvas etc) later but for now, does...

Re-posting in the correct thread! I'd put this in my part one by accident. Thanks to Stan & Neil for their comments in the other thread! So, yet again I've fallen behind. I'm determined not to give up though so this is another catch-up week. I'm still missing a few but this is a start...

So, yet again I've fallen behind. I'm determined not to give up though so this is another catch-up week. I'm still missing a few but this is a start. Week 24 - Bright - Whenever bright sunshine falls upon our front room, Simon seeks it out! Week 27 - Elaborate - Since the definition is...

Nice work on both weeks, especially elaborate. Prefer the second bright but both are good shots

So, yet again I'm catching up. Actually, I haven't actually caught up with this because I still owe the cause 'Bright' and 'Rescue'. So here's a partial catch up: Week 23 - Broken: This was taken the day after the recent Vancouver hockey riots. It shows locals getting on with their...

Hi all, Thanks so much for your comments, I really appreciate the feedback. Ok... Twisted (glacial lake): Yes the colours are broadly like that although maybe I've saturated the lake a bit too much! Also, I didn't want the water to look as metallic as that (if you know what I mean). I've...

I'm away touring western Canada right now so have some beautiful scenery to inspire me. C&C most welcome. Week 21 - Twisted - water from glaciers high in the Rockies have twisted down the mountains to fill glacial lakes. Because the water is so compressed by the ice, the lakes are a stunning...

Well I had to have a full shot, didn't I?! No point using one or two cans! You're right about the iou, it takes up a bit too much of the shot. Thanks for stopping by! Jonathan

Hello everyone. So, firstly a catch up from week 15 which I missed for reasons unknown. So this one is wrong, for the following reason: On the statue found at Nepean Point in Ottawa, Samuel de Champlain holds the astrolabe in his hand. If you look closely at the astrolabe, you will see it...

Hi Dawn and everyone else, thanks for the feedback. I knew this picture wasn't a perfect candidate for the processing, hence why it isn't too convincing. However, trying new things is part of what this is all about, right? But, also, another message I'll take from this is not to try and force a...

Adie (Webby962) mentioned a tilt and shift lens in a post to me yesterday and, on googling it, wow! I really like the fake miniature pictures one can create with this so wanted to try. I took this picture about two weeks ago at the Hoover Dam and it looks pretty boring as is so hopefully this...

Hi. I really like the shot and I would have gone for the same subject if I had some turbines locally. I wondered how it might look as an HDR and took the liberty. I really hope you don't mind. If you do, just let me know and I can take it down immediately. I think it brightens up the...

Absolutely love the divided shot! posiview is right - it takes a second glance to get it but isn't that what we're striving for? Nice one.
