Glad I'm not the only one here then Sam :cool: shows the pair of us are not as nut's as the rest of them ;) :suspect: or does it :lol: :lol:
 
That first shot is a cracker! Nice one. And seeing that you're on your THIRD 365 :eek: I'm sure they'll be loads of ideas for me when I'm running round like an eeejit at 11:30 without a photo to my name :lol:

Anyway, here's to a year of photos! :thumbs:

Thanks Conor, it's good to start the year of with a good one :D it sets you a target to keep aiming for :thumbs:

I'm sure that you'll do well with the challenge :thumbs:
 
Lovely shot Matt, love the dof.

And I've just read this is your 3rd year? It's only my 3rd day and I'm wondering if I'll make it :P

Yeah, it's is my 3rd year, let's just say I never planned it but I decided to do a second year, and about half way through the year I decided well I may as well run though to at least 1,000 days ;)

Honestly for some of us it becomes a little bit of an addiction and I've got it bad :bang:
 
Wow - third year! I'm only on my third day! Really enjoying it so far though - its proving to be fun and I can see it making me think about some images and subjects in a different way.

Also really enjoying looking at everyone else's threads and shots. :)

Also love the shot of chesterton windmill. Let me know if there is a decent crop in there this year & I'll have a drive down.

#1 is of course excellent and nice use of DOF in #3 - The 2nd doesn't do much for me, but then I have an extreme allergy to gewgaws of that type :D

Thanks Sarah, glad on the whole you like them :D I never expect that people will like every shot I put up simply because I don't always think mine are the best they can be far from it sometimes :(

'Ain't that the truth :) Sometimes there is only time for a quick snap and run, that eople seem to love and others you plan something out and nobody likes it :lol:

It's funny you say that, yesterday I got an invite to add some images into the Getty program and some that they've picked have left me wondering why :lol:

Cool, but the workings of the Getty mind are most strange ;) I've got a couple of real life friends that regularly collect a nice little earner from Getty for the most obscure photos, mostly 365 oddities.

Yeah I've now set up my account and will start processing the images that they want :thumbs: even if I only earn a little bit it's better than nothing
 
Day 4 - On the look out!!

I've not even clicked my long lens onto my camera for weeks, in fact I think that the last time it was one the camera was near the end of November, so I decided today since there was an obliging Chaffinch in the tree take a photo of him for my daily photo :thumbs:

Thanks Carol, I really need to get out and have a day out birding at a local wildlife spot, it's not my main interest in photography but I do like to do it occasionally :thumbs: glad you like it

Lovely shot, wish I had some of these visiting my garden, I just get the sparrows & starlings.

I'm lucky to have a wide range of species visit my garden :thumbs:

Nice Chaffinch shot Matt , You should visit Kingsbury Water Park with that lens !!

I've got Brandon Marsh, and Draycote Water on my doorstep mate :D glad you like it :D
 
I want to reach out and give him a big cuddle :D It's not an area of photography that interests me to take myself but I love the photos that others produce and I love this. He looks so snuggly and happy :D

That sure is a nice shot! Which reminds me, the one thing I'm missing from my collection is a lens with a nice reach. This forum always does this to me... costs me a few hundred quid every time I visit it! :lol:

Know how you feel there Conor - always see something and think 'hmmm wouldnt mind doing that...... now what did they use and how much is it going to cost me?? ' :lol: New Years Resolution to get more money ...... now do I get an extra job to cover it or just rob a bank??? which is the easiest and gets me the most? :lol:

If you get another job it's going to eat into camera time thought, so if we can go 50/50 we'll call it HSBC, Blackpool, 11am on Monday ;) I'll bring a flash gun :suspect:
 
Lovely shot. Like the mix of colours too. You'll need some long lens practice for Whipsnade ;)

To right I do :eek: but always good fun to have a play, hopefully I will not just spend the entire meet talking that's my usual sin :eek:

The birds always get my vote Matt. Nice to see buds appearing on the trees too.

It really is, though this a magnolia so it's a certain that it will develop a little more and then we will get a frost to ruin it for the year again :(
