Allan.H 52 for 2019 WEEK 52 OUT TAKE AND FINISHED

[Allan.H]

Hi Allan,
Two nice shots for song. Clever for the first one I like the treatment on it too.
Borrowed - It's amazing what phones can do these days. Great PoV and loads of detail. Nice

Borrowed
Like the pov and the man at the bottom.

Borrowed is a great shot, especially using a phone...

Thanks

 

[Allan.H]

Golly gosh - that looks high!! Lovely colours and detail.

Song: both shots are really good, difficult to choose. Well executed
Borrowed: good idea - and why not use a phone, it's as good as many older cameras and better than many

Spot on theme-wise, and a decent phone shot. Not the sort of thing you'd expect to find for 'borrowed' ….

Thanks

 

[Allan.H]

Borrowed - as already said, excellent pov and framing, and a good idea.

Thanks

with all the above....what a great pov!
Sharp in all the right places, terrific composition and great colours too...not too shabby for an iphone!

You have more nerves than me....wouldn't get me up in one of those things!!

They do take a bit of getting used to
Thanks for looking in.

Great point of view there Allan, I like it.

WEEK 44 SPOOKY

Spooky by Allan Howe, on Flickr

 

[Fuji Dave]

Really like this spooky image Allan, love the creepy eyes looking out through the rain and a nice touch with a bit of vignetting too.

Took me a while to figure out the theme. Now, that's scary. Don't think I'll even walk in front of a drain outfall again.

 

[FlyPhot]

Nicely done! Yep, a spooky image indeed.

 

[LauraJ23]

That's great, love the eyes there and just the right amount of vignette too.

 

[-Oy-]

Love IT Allan

 

[GarethB]

Bravo Allan!!
Superbly though out image, with a tremendously satisfying (if somewhat terrifying) payoff!!
Very cleverly placed paper thingy (can't remember if those things actually have a name) to draw the eye towards those scary eyes down the drain!!

You are the first person to mention where I stole the idea from

The paper thing, is a Sanpan which is a Japanese boat its been a long time since I did any origami, not lost it though

 

[Nostromo]

Spooky
It took me a second or two, to see the eyes (I was beginning to wonder, what's so scary about a drain cover). Good job as always.

WEEK 45 SHORT

Chester Cathedral by Allan Howe, on Flickr

Because of the "dissolution of the monasteries" in the late 1530s these figures are short of their hands, they would have been praying.

 

[mdpF2]

That's a good picture with a great link to the theme, interesting.

 

[GarethB]

A great image and a very interesting story Allan!
The framing is excellent, and the shadows work very well - you handled the somewhat harsh/hard light very well indeed!

Interesting take on the theme Allan. Like the picture, great colour and lighting.

Cracking take and story for short Allan, bang on for the theme and nicely framed too.

Nicely different, when I first looked I just thought they looked short, I guess they are kneeling.

WEEK 46 ENVIRONMENTAL

Nice image. When I shot mine I was tempted to post the mono version, this makes me think I should have.

 

[lindsay]

Very good shots for Short and Environmental, really thought provoking in both cases.
