Allan.H TP52 2017 WEEK 52 WEATHER ADDED

[Fuji Dave]

Nice broad shot Allan, nice colours and a good BG to set it off.

 

[sirch]

Took me a moment to get it but I was just being dim. Good idea, well composed with just the right level of reflection and nice colours. Good photo.

 

[Dark Knight]

It took me a second to work it out... I know :bang:

I wish I knew how you did these deep blacks with a reflection, is it on a mirror or black glass, so damn effective with such well lit and vivid colours too, no glare from the light source on the surface, well controlled mate

It is a little loose I agree, it was taken on a piece of glass which on one side was sprayed black, I have used it a few times

A lovely well lit shot. My only niggle is the crop is just a tad too tight.

Its not a very big piece of glass it was sitting on hence the tightness, but I to agree not how I would have liked it

 

[d00d]

good clean colourful props and very nice reflection.

[Nostromo]

Broad
Cool idea, with good colours and reflection too.

 

[Hertsman]

Clever idea and nicely composed and lit Allan...

 

[LC2]

Nicely contrasty and I like the way the shadow grounds it. Not my first thought for Broad, but I can see why and it does work well

Not my first thought either, I am hoping not to have another like it

Love the Rustic shot, very apt for the theme and time of the year. Well lit and spot-on focus and those delicious bokehs.

 

[LC2]

Nothing I can say that hasn't already been said.
With that lovely bokeh and perfect subject matter for the theme, you've nailed it.

[Manxmaid]

That's a super image for Rustic, Allan I can't add anything new to the comments already posted, so will just echo the praise for the choice of subject and the bokeh.

WEEK 51 FESTIVE

Bus Stop by Allan Howe, on Flickr

Wanted to do the most unfestive but in a strange way festive pic, Happy Christmas

 

[LauraJ23]

Good spot Allan, good tie in to the theme there, b+w works a treat, Happy Christmas.

 

[Fuji Dave]

Nice b&w Allan, a good choice for the theme as some folk drink. Like the little framing and think good job done.

Good alternative take on the theme with both the advert and the leaf less trees spelling out the season.
B&W works nicely here.

A different take on the theme but sexism nowadays. I like the shooting angle and the black & white treatment too.
