Not had my camera out properly for a few weeks, so this will give me the motivation to do so. Started this late so will need to get the thinking hat on for this week's theme.

Tried this last year and got to about week 4. Have resolved to try to improve more this year and see this as an opportunity to do so. Count me in please.

Thanks all. Much appreciated.

Hi Paul, Do you have a street name for the location you are talking about?

Brilliant cheers!

Hi, I'm back in Scotland for the next six weeks and want to get out and take photos, been home 3 days and bored already! Thinking the sunset might be good tonight and was thinking of doing the Forth Bridge, my question is can anyone advise where to park and where you can get down on to the...

Thinking of buying a speedlite for use with a canon 450d. I have looked at the yongnuo brand as an alternative to the canon equivalent(580). Can anyone advise whether the cheaper option is a worthy alternative for a keen amateur or would if be better to hang off and spend the money on the canon...

Is there some rule in the 52 where you can do a reshoot of a week? I've literally had no time to shoot anything for Clutter as it's been a busy time in HK. I really don't want a gap in my 52 though, so this post is a place marker!

Because I shot them from my apartment, there is another building in the foreground of the shot that prevents a crop where I can have the reflection of the fireworks on the water. There is another building on the right of the image that I would love to crop out but it would remove part of the...

Interesting take on the theme and if you look at some of my takes on themes you'll see equally tenuous ones, I prefer to call it subtlety! Nice composition on the tree trunk, love the grain coming through in the freshly chopped part too. Well done.

Of the 3 posted my preference is the third. I'd prefer it even more if the leaves on the right were taken out but I realise that might be tricky and would give the tree in the centre. Still great colours captured in the sky and the silhouette is fantastic.

For me the 2nd of the 2 is fantastic. Love how subtley the theme is included and the candid nature of the photograph. I could've told you they were watching TV with the focussed stare of the twin nearest the camera. I think the cuteness of the 2 of them also swayed my opinion somewhat! I'm also...

Great take on the theme Chris. Love how the title is slightly out of focus and the fact that the whole image has a gritty, vintage feel to it.

Like your interpretation of the theme, I was struggling myself. Really nice shot, great DOF and like the processing you've done on it to get the particular tones on the skin.

Hard, was actually the hardest week for me so far! It's Chinese New Year, which is great forshooting opportunities but there are so many people everywhere! This is a shot of the spectacular Lunar New Year's Fireworks in Victoria Harbour. It was a Hard shot to get, I originally tried to be...
