Nifty Fifty Challenge 2024 - Chat thread

[Topsy]

Thanks for the feedback so far, I think we'll keep as it is then.

Just need some themes to shuffle, ready for picking...

Are you looking for suggestions Gav or do you have the themes already in mind?

Urban
Water
Ancient (or at least very old)
Abandoned

The last two would probably result in many self portraits

I have definitely made more of an effort to use my nifty 35 (50 equivalent) this year because of the challenge, so am keen to keep going with it.

I didn't make this month . . . I have had a temporary tidy and put my 50mm (and Jupiter 90mm) 'somewhere' safe . . . I was going to simply take a photo of the burger franchise McDonalds 'M' logo this very evening. Oh well, I couldn't find the lens in time this time, but next time lookout lol .

I have to admit, I'm struggling with this theme. I did have one idea. But deemed it totally inappropriate

Wrong lens, mate. I had the 27mm on at the time...

Poor show from me this time around

 

[Fixer]

Okay, I am off to get my Enormous photograph. No idea what or where so unless I get arrested for odd looks on my face and peculiar behaviour I 'll post my glorious attempt before the witching hour

 

[Fixer]

So I have now uploaded my photo from today . . . I bagged it before someone turned the weather on!!!

An interesting question I'm asking is 'is it a colour photograph or a black and white photograph?' . . . What do you guys and gals think?

I'd say colour, as there's a slight blue/grey tint on the panelling. Although it could be my phone

Thank you to all that joined in through the year, it's been good to see how people tackle the themes.

I think I'm ready to join in again next year, hopefully finish it too

Have a good new year and I'll see you again in the new chat thread for 2025 if you want to keep going

This was a toughie, and getting an 'uncropped' image without losing the sides or the top of the tower falling backwards was a challenge.
