weekly Gremlin16's TP 52 for 2017 thread. WK 12 POWER

As a photo, number 2 for me, but I guess number 1 looks like it fits the theme more tho I wonder what 'less wall' might make it look like, other than just less wall!
 
Dark - Well done for getting a shot of the buzzard, nice sharpness on the bird considering the light and the fact it was moving, maybe a little less wall would have been good. Dirty boy is a good shot, like the detail in its coat and I like the choice of the horizon across the middle.

Power - wow, that's fantastic. Great angle you have got and a good shutter speed to keep some blur in the rotors but keep the pilots sharp. No crit on this from me.
 
The Apache is a very good photo, heat haze from the engines, good prop blur, great sense of action and POWER
 
good shot for "power" very dramatic angle the helicopter is on which make the picture for me
 
Yup, it certainly epitomises Power.
Just the right amount of prop (well, wing) blur, a bit of heat haze thrown in from teh exhaust, and an interesting manoeuvre.
I think you've nailed this action shot.
 
Great position of the helicopter, great choice of shutter speed, and of course bang on theme!
 
Very good shot with the Helicopter, angle, rotor blur, exhaust haze.

Structure - a lovely image for the theme, she looks like she is having fun.
Routine - I like the composition of this image and I know what you mean about the string ends getting stuck in your fingers I have the same issue on my guitars.
Dark - both images fit the theme, but the buzzard image is my fav one.
Power - a cracking image no crit needed for this one.
 
Above. Whilst using quite a cheap nasty lens, I managed to get this using a bit of a long exposure and a remote. I had a series of 3 but for the life of me, I cant get them merged. Both the moon and the ISS are above me, and I was enjoying a rather nice Gin and Tonic whilst i was checking my ISS tracker app and counting down the minutes. There is quite a bit of light pollution showing, but i am off to scotland next week with a proper lens so hopefully, whilst not for the 52, i may get some better images, without the orange, and also with sharper stars. (probably won't need to be so harsh with the PP too!)

WK 13 - Above by festerx, on Flickr
 
limitations apart its quite an interesting image, its has a dream like quality to it
 
I like the photo and the combination of moon, clouds and ISS trail all close together.
 
Interesting stuff ... what's going one in the sky plus the house with lights on adds a kind of spookiness.
 
Oh, a mutant sheep :) Great shot, I like the composition with the parent's wool just getting into the frame and the lambs lined up!
 
I missed the double ears when i first looked at the shot, well seen and a good fun take on the theme (y)
 
Above, I like the fact the sky isn't clear as the clouds do add to the overall image.

Evolved, well spotted :D

Aweeee bless the little Lamb, I must say for a moment or two I thought it had 4 ears :D

<EDIT>Ha Haaaa I nearly always comment on an image without reading others comments, this time I missed your description too... what a great pic for the theme :D :thumbs:

Evolve ....the shape of things to come :eek: very well spotted, a good fun take on the theme.
Smashing photo of the moon and the ISS for Above , that's a good app for tracking it isn't it.
Plus plenty of Power in the helicopter, really well captured with those whirring rotor blades.
 
Above - Blimey, the ISS moves quickly doesn't it. 29 seconds for that much travel...
Quite like the halo effect around the moon, it disguises the fact that it much be elongated by the long exposure.

Evolve - Hmmm... Well, it's on theme certainly. What is interesting is how the other sheep in the image doesn't appear to have moved while you were getting this.
 
I don't follow @LC2 ? It's only one shot, with mother to the left and two lambs stood in a line astern. It's just that from the shooting angle, most of the rear lamb isn't visible :)

Does that answer your problem?
