Discussion / idle chat thread (2022) Week 52 Showcase

[Nikon_Nick]

Just remembered there is a ‘water treatment plant’ a few miles from where I live. Plenty of discarded …’items’ there I’m sure.

 

[HelenC]

Are we scraping the bottom of the barrel already

 

[Nikon_Nick]

Surprisingly, I’ve actually got a lot of ideas for this one. I now just need to find the time to actually go out and get the shots, which is the tricky part.

 

[Cobra]

Not even close

 

[Fuji Dave]

On to Week 12



On ya' marks get set ...


OK so that was just a throw away line, more like Discarded if you will

I'm sure I can find something for this, NOT a jazz shot either.

 

[Cobra]

I would, they are most certainly to be discarded

 

[Fuji Dave]

I would, they are most certainly to be discarded

I have plenty of time to shoehorn another jazz shot, only because all the themes are so easy

 

[Cobra]

only because all the themes are so easy

Everyone take note.
The hard themes are / will be all Dave's fault

 

[Fuji Dave]

Sadly I've heard it all before but we still keep getting the EASY ones

 

[Bebop]

Hmm I think discarded is quite tricky actually. I don't want to do a record shot.... but it might end up that way.

I'm just charging my little Ricoh, then off out and try to get down and dirty with a Discarded shot today.

Ooh er.... not a trip to the tip was it?

I've had an idea actually. Just need to think how to execute it.

 

[-Oy-]

Ok folks - week 12 is about to be discarded! Get yer pix up today!

New theme day tomorrow!!!!!

 

[Simonbrown16]

What will it be?!

Something easy or something hard?

 

[-Oy-]

Hard as you like

 

[Cobra]

Hard as you like

Diamonds are pretty hard

 

[Nod]

I have an idea if the theme's "Something Hard"...

 

[Adamcski]

Lol. Doesn't the forum have separate sections for that genre lol

 

[Nod]

Really?…Interesting

 

[Cobra]

On to week 13 and 1/4 of the way through the challenge.
Well done all those that are still here

I woke up this morning to a smattering of snow, so I guess that Spring is here,
and with it spring brings an abundance of Flora.

( and no prizes for anyone that heads to the shops for a snap of a margarine tub )

 

[Simonbrown16]

Oooh that’s a good theme and a good excuse to get out and about

 

[Adamcski]

Nice as there are some flowers around and about that I can snap

I was in town when I saw the theme, spreading it a bit thin
Good theme too.

No need to butter me up Dave

Bloomin' heck

 

[-Oy-]

Flaaarz? I can do flaaarz

 

[Fuji Dave]

No need to butter me up Dave

I would never try to butter you up MARGE

 

[Cobra]

Bloomin' heck

If you mean the snow, its been at it, most of the day, but its been to warm to settle.

Flaaarz? I can do flaaarz

See how kind I am to you Dave

 

[Fuji Dave]

I'm in Clover

 

[Nikon_Nick]

I'm in Clover

A joke like that? Coming from you Dave? I can’t believe it’s not better…

 

[Fuji Dave]

Seems as though my headcold has now turned into a raging chest infection, so I won't be about for a bit as going back to bed.

Oh dear. I hope you feel better soon. Flora can always wait till later.

 

[Peter123]

Hop you are soon over this Dave.

 

[inView]

Finally caught back up, phew .......

OOPS. In my defence, I hadn't read this post. And nor is Flora defined as Margarine.

 

[Peter123]

Kell, it might help your gut flora so I think it qualifies.

 

[Cobra]

OOPS. In my defence, I hadn't read this post. And nor is Flora defined as Margarine.

Anything that wasn't butter was called Margarine,
Although originally made from animal fats, most margarine consumed today is made from vegetable oil.

Flora
Plant oils (rapeseed, palm*, sunflower 3%, linseed), water, salt 1.35%, plant-based emulsifier (sunflower lecithin), fava bean protein, natural flavourings,

Hi all,

I will be trying to catch up in the near future. Had a few pictures to place in the older ones...
Been away from home for a week, so a lot of pictures to process.
Placeholders in the my list placed.. and I will choose and update the main thread once I've decided.
