One out of my first set of Mamiya RZ 120mm medium format SLR ! I managed to develop it just in time I guess! I'd really wish I could have scanned it on a better scanner because I loose a lot of sharpness and definition with it :(, This was actually shot inside my freinds car monday, I thought that the shades would be more dramatic, but I did shot it for this week so I post it here ! :)

ENTRIES CLOSED

Thank you all who took part in this weeks challenge there are a lot of nice shots. I congratulate you all.

I will make my decision in the next hour and reveal the winner later this evening.

Thank you again for all your entries.
 

In reverse order -

3rd Place goes to SarahLee - Balancing The Scales...I like this, with limited sun you can still achieve this type of image at home/studio...well done.

2nd Place goes to Gvozdi - The Thames etc...Nicely captured this had both shadows and silhouetts. A Close contender.

Thanks ever so much for picking me for the win :)

Congrats to 2nd and 3rd place too. I must say I thought Sarah's scales were rather good.

Thank you also to everyone else who joined in, to make the competition worthwhile. It does seem this contest as hit a little bit of a slump lately, so I do hope people will be keen enough to enter in the future.

I'll get my thinking cap on for the next contest and post the challenge soon - tonight if I can come up with something, otherwise Monday for sure.
 
Congrats. I did have an idea for this but unfortunately I didn't get around to executing it. A great pic won though, well done :clap:
 
Graham, thanks for the 2nd place! Congratulations to TDodd and SarahLee.
I like the sky on the wild teasels, such a soft color.

Will have to think about bodies and their parts now :)
 
Well done to the winners.

sorry - I just ran out of time this week. :shake:

I will certainly try harder for the coming week though.
 
Well done,

I had got a photo myself and was going to submit it, would have been the 1st time Id have submitted it into one of these fun competitions but my pc was playing up all weekend and Ive only just managed to upload it at work now.

Anyhow if put it in its own thread if you want a nosey

I'll just have to be quicker next time haha
 
:clap: Well done to Gvozdi and tdodd. Both great photos, but I have to agree that the wild Teasels were my favourite out of the lot too. Gorgeous photo.

Graham, thank you so much for the third place.
TOTALLY unexpected. Those last 2 shots really were last minute attempts on Sunday afternoon when I realised that there was no prospect of any sun.

So body parts next?
Hmmmmm looking forward to seeing what people come up with on that one.
