Impressive shot for Round and love the glow from the cave walls. Must join Matt's masterclass sometime.
Brilliant simplistic shot for Negative

Negative space and negative terminal - very striking shot lovely lighting and super sharp.
Personally I like all the dead space.

Yeah, liking Negative. The colour from the battery really works for me.

I wonder what a 90 degree counter clockwise rotation would look like. Think it might work...a but like Kilroy :D

Cheers.

Thanks Andy. I hadn't thought of the Kilroy shot. I think it would work.

Cheers John. Matt really does organise these events well. He also doesn't mind stepping back from his camera to help others get the shots. All round good guy.

Hi Peter

Negative - absolutely super detail and colours. Great idea and very well produced.

Now I know someone who recognises Kilroy, I might point you in the direction of one of my first posts, which seemed to confuse some. -- http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=206415&highlight=Kilroy

Thanks Alan.

Well done for spotting that while out on your travels. #2 with both windows open works well for me. I obviously confused on of the posters so much they are now banned :lol:
 
Hi Peter


great use of a double Negative , well lit , simple , effective & sooo on theme :clap:
 
As Arthur Askey sang
Oh, what a wonderful thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee......

Cheers Andy. I'm afraid as fun (and sometimes frustrating) as doing this year's 52 has been I won't be repeating it next year. I've got some ideas though.

I prefer Eric, the half a bee myself!

Great shot Peter! Bang on theme and nicely composed. What is it though, aside from a bee obviously?

Thanks Mark. The bee is a wind ornament that I got from a local garden centre yesterday. It comes on a stick (plenty of pp'ing to remove it) to put in the ground/plant pot. It's about 4" long with springs on the legs and wings which let them move in the wind.
 
Hi Peter,

Negative is excellent with the double meaning!

Busy, love that bee. I thought it was one of your kites initially! Great lighting and PP.

Well done for finishing your 52. Sorry that you won't be joining us next year, but at least you won't be shaming our weak images with your excellent ones!

Merry Christmas to you and Sarah. x

Thanks for the kind words Marsha. Hope you and the family are having a great Christmas as well.
 
Thanks Lynne. Yes given our usual weather I couldn't quite believe that I got blue skies and the odd white cloud. It was a very windy day and even tried the 10 stop filter to blur the clouds but couldn't get the bee, which was equally moving all over the place, looking right even with the studio lights blasting it.
 
Hi Peter

Busy - a good fun image, well captured. I too thought that it was one of your kites. well handled PP.

Well done on finishing 2012 52. I see that you are not doing the 2013 version so I would like to thank you :thankyou: for your comments on my shots, being one of the first to pick up my thread and sticking with it through the year.

Best of luck in your work for this year

Thanks Alan. Well done to you as well. It's been fun some weeks and a struggle other weeks but we've got through it.
 
Hi Peter :)

Catch up time, sorry but it will be brief as I want to get comments up to date :)

Colour - Great strong colours, dark black background... perfect :)

Shadow - I like that, not the strongest of links for you, but a fantastic image, very sharp and clear

Glow - now that is clever, like how you have done that, very colourful, the shapes work very well, nice one :thumbs:

Round - What great colours, like the way these have been done, a different take on the usual orbs, love the color of the background

Negative - Great blacks... great idea, like it :)

Busy - Hahhaaaaa :D - that is brilliant !!!!

Yet again a great finish, and a truly great 52 for 2012, have really liked your photo's Peter, well done completing on time :clap:

Great to hear from you Dean. Thanks for the catch up comments.

Hope your computer is feeling better. Did a boot up disc/stick do the job?
