Thanks

 

[Boots]

That works well

 

[LC2]

I find myself looking at the background.
Is that a BMX track behind the court?

I like the muted colours, they suit the cloudy weather.

 

[Adamcski]

Very clever and works well

Yes it is, thanks for looking in.

Good idea and first week done, frost on the ground?

 

[SimonH]

Nicely spotted and snapped Allan. Given what Tim said, cropping out the top part may make it more dramatic for the theme, but either way way it works.

Yes very frosty here today

I wanted to keep the whole court in. I’m not sure it would work just the lines of the court.

Nice take on the theme. Looks cold there!

 

[Simonbrown16]

[Barney]

Love the gritty processing, You can almost feel the frost and the cold coming out of the screen.

WEEK 2 RUST AND DECAY

Rust by Allan Howe, on Flickr

 

[Barney]

Pass me the wire wool and some WD40, you would not like the "snip" with those. Great perspective and DOF

 

[Adamcski]

Fits the theme and works well

I always like a bit of shallow DoF, works well for the theme Allan.

 

[AlanDorset]

Ooooh yes, I was thinking a good bit of wire brushing too !

 

[-Oy-]

Nice snap of the snips Allan

 

[NickD]

That works for me. The shallow depth of field leads you back through the picture, and the texture on the nut is really nice.
