Thanks Keith! Err, describing it as a thought process might be a bit strong.

 

[HelenC]

Very clever shot. Great thinking outside the box and well executed.

Week 9 - Hidden

Allowed myself to get a bit behind (oops). Still got a bit of a monochrome thing going on [How's that going to work out for Vivid? - Ed.]

Hidden - In Plane Sight

 

[Boots]

Week 10 - Textures / Textured

Shavings... well, I had the plane out!

 

[BobBCN]

Two super shots to get you up to date. The shavings make for a stunning shot. And keep up the mono work. Love it.

Week 12 - Shadows and Silhouettes

 

[-Oy-]

Nicely abstract! Tell us about it!

Thanks Dave!

Not much to say really. The sun was shining through the kitchen window in the late afternoon. I lowered the blind with the slats fairly open, and the shadow fell on the wall. I liked what I saw, so I photographed it.

I'm not too sure what the extra bits at the top are, but again I liked them so I included them without trying to find out what they were. I guess they are a reflection of something.

Well spotted makes for a great abstract.

 

[Kell]

Great spot.

I'd have been tempted to up the contrast and make the blacks a lot blacker, but then I do that a lot.

 

[BobBCN]

As said, great abstract. Maybe with @Kell a bit darker ...?

Thanks all!

I did pump up the contrast and drop the brightness a bit - I guess I should have done more!

 

[AlanDorset]

Often it’s the unexpected that makes the photo.

Indeed! Thanks Alan!

I wondered how you created that effect it made me smile when you explained that it was the blinds. Cool picture
