Terrarium's really nice, assume it's lit just by it's own light there. Giving a really interesting shadow and the concentric rings around it.

Thank you, yes, it has LED lights inside the cork lid and the ripples in the glass give off a nice pattern.

Hare's are great too - really low POV and I imagine they're not that easy to spot, and don;t hang around long. Don't think I've ever even seen one!

Thank you, not always easy to spot but you get to know what to look for, I spent half an hour crawling up to these 2, as long as you behave they'll stick around :LOL:
Here's one hiding

And the knob is great too. Lovely reflection, I'd have had the clone tool out on a couple of the bigger dust specks.

Thank you, I'll be honest I'm kicking myself, I seem to have skipped a step on that one :(

Thank you for the feedback!

A nice set of catch up shots. I particularly like the brass knob which has lovely lighting and a great reflection.
 
Good catch up there, as others have said your knob is excellent! I am so envious of your hare shot, I tried for ever last year to get a picture of some in a field across the road. Saw them there most mornings for about two weeks but was totally unable to get near enough for a shot. So much admire your fieldcraft.

Thank you (y)

Hares are a bit of an obsession at the minute, I love them, but they are very tricky buggers, a lot of time face in the dirt crawling about :LOL:
 
Great set Gav, I particularly like the shot of the hares and the knob.
 
Nice and sharp on the focal point with blur front and back. Good use of shallow DOF to add interest
 
I like the low key feel and your use of dof. Nice one.
 
Nice shot Gav. Like the processing and composition.
 
Good angle and very sharp.
I'm assuming you used a tripod.
 
I wasn't sure what to do for this one, here's my toaster with crumpets in ;)

Love crumpets either with honey or marmite yummy, nice shot mate and the reds are nicely red.

Cheers Dave, Marmite or just salted butter for me ;) I love the glow of things like this so had to try.
 
Nice image - nicely taken - can;t see the crumpets - the shot works just with the lovely red glow of the elements.

Are they quartz or something? Fancy! :D

Thank you, crumpets were too low, I should've waited for them to pop up :headbang:

Fancy Quartz elements, best thing in the kitchen :p
 
Nice toaster & back ground isolates it well, my better half insists on using the cooker grill rather than our toaster :headbang:

Thank you... I guess it saves the crumbs in the bottom of the toaster :LOL:
 
  • Haha

That's a good shot Gav. Fits the theme well. I didn't know that Bosch even made toasters...

Toasted crumpets, not had them before but they sound delicious. Image-wise, I like the pov to include the red-hot colour elements.

You need to try them topped with butter .. Thank you (y)
