from me
oooo so many different ideas, I think I like this week
No this is a different one. I seem to remember they were on offer if you bought 3 of them so there's still one left unphotographed.
Thanks Summer, John, Mike and MarshaDark, I think most comments have been made. For me the face seems a little brightI like the empty space though and fits the theme well
Time, I looked at this before reading it I was thinking time as in a three minute egg or along those lines, but breakfast time works for me too and I like the composition.
Time, runny egg and soldiers...
Well exposed, nice and sharp with good colours. Well composed. I wasn't sure about the part hidden spoon but unsure if another placement would improve
Hmmmm, think I'd like a more minimal approach by removing the egg timer, integral though it may be.
Cheers.
Hi Peter
always like shots of these model toys , well lit & lovely black BG...a little too much empty space for me thoug , other than that it's a
Time....oh yes , perfectly boiled egg with soldiers , well laid out , great focus & spot on with the colors....top shot mister
Definitely will DaveHi
Why not take part in our annual TP Day coming up soon 9th September,as part of your 52, Where you take a photo on that day and post it on the forum, then all the Photos are made into a slideshow, Click the logo for more details, it's lots of fun to be a part of it
My idea started with an egg timer but couldn't find one nice enough to be on its own so I left it in the shot although I took ones without.Sorry it's brief - I'm lagging behind again!
Mineral - Wonderful shot, really nicely framed, good clarity, colour and light... can't fault it!
Dark - Definitely that! I'd have considered removing the base between his legs though, and I do like Iain's suggestion of a spotlight.
Time - I like the "breakfast" part of the shot, but feel that the egg timer is a bit out of place, something about it just doesn't gel for me. Not denying its thematic need to be there, just visually, it feels off.
Cheers Alex. I have to admit that this breakfast was photographed after lunch although it didn't stop me tucking in when I finished the shoot.
) and maybe I'm not cultured enough to appreciate some of them. The gardens however are really nice. There's no entrance fee but parking is £7.50 for over 2 hours :thumbsdown:. But I suppose it's good value when you consider two of us were there for about four hours.
Thanks Robert
Body as others say is a great composition I like that you have taken the back view so that we can see what she is seeing very clever
Thanks Allan and Marsha. Shooting up the hill would have meant capturing the sky which would have been ideal if the sky had been blue with nice fluffy clouds. Alas it was typical British weather.Hi Peter, now that's one large body! Nice composition and a good idea to shoot the behind, sorry from behind
Cheers Mike
Hi Peter
Neat idea for the theme mister , liking the angle & that the statue seems to be gazing off in to woods below
Must confess....another here not cultured enough to understand how anyone could get paid to create this type if thing....confused to say the least
Thanks for the comments Lynne and Summervery nice, love sculptures anyway and this is a great shot
Thanks IainI too like your take on the weeks theme Peter. Lovely colour tones in the statue and the background.
Clever composition too, gives the viewer a sense of what the staue is "looking" at. Your photograph has good depth to it too. Good work
Thanks Michael. I thought I better get the reshoot out of the way quickly
Thanks for the comments Vicky. Well Spotted. I'd already cloned one small hair from the kiwi. I can't believe I missed that one.Body - I love the crop, it suits perfectly. I quite like that I don't know how large it is; I'm looking at the grass in the foreground and thinking it's about life sized, then looking into the distance and thinking it's much larger. Colours are good and the detail in the trees in the background is intact.
Soft - Gorgeous. The kiwi is beautifully sharp, the colours are perfect, the composition is just right. The only teeny tiny little thing wrong (and I had to look VERY hard for this!) is that I think there's a hair on the kiwi - very small, bottom left of the frame, just on the "centre" of the kiwi. But I'm sure that can be easily removed
Thanks for the feedback Andy. Bidy was actually shot on f5.6 so nothing too excessive in either direction. I did also pop the image quickly into Silver Efex Pro but didn't find anything I liked for this one so I kept the colour.
Food is just the right colour.
Thanks Allan
Thanks for the catchup AlanHi Peter
Sorry for falling behind
Dark - good comp and balance of space. God spot of yellow to highlight and lovely background.
Time- Like the angles and the colours. Two elements for time
Body - really like this. Good composition with the diagonals on the ground converging on the gate and the figure gazing in the same direction. Like the colours.
Soft - godd colour saturation and shapes. Good focus. and good spot by Vicky on the hair !!
Ice cubes melt too quickly, especially under the studio lights ( it took me three sets of cubes), and they slip around on the glass surface if the table isn't exactly level :bonk:
I like the position of the cubes and the reflection of them as well. 
Well done Peter on both of this weeks shots I know how difficult they were for you to set up and how testing they were!
Soft - it was a good idea to put the kiwi in to add the extra colour and the detail on it is superb!
Liquid - I bet you never want to see another ice cube again after today - but it was funny watching them glide all over the table
Now where's some ice for my drink!!
I Peter some nice creative and lateral thinking for liquid
A simple but effective image, I particularly like the pale blue colour tone, it's quite a calming and serene (if that's the correct word) photograph. Good work, your patience paid off. Iain
