Nice shots so far Nick. Particularly like new (can't beat a good 50 mm prime) although it looks more like a close encounter for gingerbread men.

Nice idea with style, but you look like you're sat on the bog. Really liked your take on clutter. Very cool.

Clutter proved really hard work, and to be honest, I'm not really enthusiastic about delicate either. I didn't want to just take a picture of a busy desk or my shed, but the image I ended up with is another still life anyway. At least I've got a bit of background to it though. Anyone with...

It's a bit late, but this is the other idea I had for hard. It's a foreign language version of the Periodic Table (making it more difficult to understand) with a molecular model showing the structure of diamond sat on top of it. Diamond, as well as being quite hard, is an allotrope of carbon...

An excellent set of photo's David. Particularly like weeks 3-5. Your set up for the heart and hammer is ingenious. Very clever. Criticism of the sparks seems a bit harsh, and I'm not sure that you could have done much about it anyway. They really add to the overall image and are great as they...

That style certainly is alternative. Is it a charity shop that sells golf jumpers and twigs? Really like the open book though.

Thanks for all the good egg feedback about my 'bad egg'. Honestly, there's no pleasing some people. Pleased you like the composition, which was the important aim for me. I agree about the sky though Patrick. It was very overcast anyway, and being quite new to photography I have not...

Wasn't sure about this when I first saw it. Man, it is a dark one. The more I look at it though, the more it grows on me. Really like the selective lighting from the side and the way the left hand edge of the mortar disappears into the background. Only criticism is that the inside of the...

It's a bit Ikea but I like the simplicity of this Patrick. You've got a nice variety of colour in there as well. Plus there's no scary eyebrows to frighten the kids. Thought your weeks 1 and 2 were excellent by the way.

Like your first shot a lot. As mentioned above I like the way the curves complement each other. Spent a year in Newcastle and it brings back happy memories. No sure about the other two. Both very similar and both suffer from the reflections you mentioned.

Nice and simple. Really like it.

Had a couple of ideas this week. Hope no-one minds if I post more than one. First one was my initial thought. He's a bag egg. A hard boiled gangster with a hard ass attitude, etc. etc. The second one was just something I saw while I was out with the family for a walk earlier today...

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. Have taken on board what Patrick and Mark said and tried a small crop. Maybe a slight improvement?

That's a well lit sandwich. Agree about the corner of the table, but wouldn't have noticed if it hadn't been pointed out, such is the quality of the shot. Looks a bit like a girlfriend I used to have.

Crikey. That's awesome fella. How did you pop your cork, if it's not too rude a question?
