One Week, and Anything Goes….. Or Photography, My Art – Week 2

The idea of this challenge is to not only test your technical ability and your ability to ‘see a picture’, but also to develop your imagination in creating a piece of artwork, and to encourage lateral thinking. Please note, that a straight picture can be just as pleasing artistically as a highly manipulated one, so this challenge should be open to straight and manipulated images, and judged on their artistic merit

1 – You have exactly 1 week to come up with an idea, photograph it and submit it. Start date Monday – Judging to be some time between Sunday Night and Monday morning. Then the new subject to be posted some time on the Monday.
2 – Entries should be new images, and not ones that have previously been seen on TP (Unless the image has been significantly altered in some way by PP which makes it a new image.)
3 – Any and all photographic technique at your disposal is allowable to create your image. Judging should be based on the final image, regardless of the technicalities of how the image was created.
4 – Images can be posted at any time during the week up until a cut off time determined by the judge on Sunday evening.
5 – Winner to choose a title for the next challenge and judge it at the end of their week.
6 – Titles and Subjects can be interpreted however the photographer sees fit, thinking both inside and outside the box should be encouraged. (If you feel that your image could be misinterpreted as not being relevant, a short accompanying explanation note is permissible.)


First title.

FALLING. - Won by COMFY.

Second Title

CHAIN.

You can interpret it literally and create an image of chain links, chain fence, daisy chains etc. etc.
Or you can be creative with the word and work on ideas based on chain gang, a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link, even a chain of house buyers...... as before, feel free to think creativley. you never know you might enjoy it.

Lets see what you can come up with.

Jump in as soon as you like - cut off time about 8pm on Sunday 5th July Judging to take place some time Sunday night.
 
any takers at all? - or should this just disappear into the ether?
 
Well, I for one am working on this :)
... and here it is

Well done Comfy. It's a great image, of a really cool looking location. I still haven't even tried doing a slow shutter shot of running water, so must try it some time. It's a shame nobody else entered, as it seems like something of a hollow victory if your are the only one.

I'll leave it in your hands if you want to persevere with this idea and come up with a new title, and hope that more people jump in.

A worthy winner anyway.
 
Sorry - I'd intended sorting something for this challenge, as well as the usual one, but things have been really fraught for the last fortnight, and to be honest, i'd forgotten that it closed today:bonk::bonk::bonk:

Would be a shame for this to "wither on the vine" so to speak - I reckon that there's definitely space for the 2 challenges to run in parallel so to speak.

Thanks BY.... One vote of confidence is all I need to keep bashing away.

Shall we give it another try? - I propose a new title - But all other rules as before. End date -Sunday 5th July (That gives you 2 full weekends.)
New title will be

CHAIN

I'll EDIT the initial Post to reflect this.
 
Sorry for slow reply, I have to work away from home usually and didn't see the outcome til now. Damn!
Not sure what to do now, so ... if I get a few replies to this thread (so I know there will be interest) then I'll start another one for next week maybe??
Any suggestions from others welcome :)

Oops - we must have been posting at exactly the same time Comfy.

How about you post up your chosen title, and I'll swap it for the one I just posted? :shrug:
 
Ah, haha, keep it as 'chains' mate. We'll run with this :) Sorry for any confusion

OK - Chains it is then.

Will you judge this one please? - as if you came up with the title.

then I can have a play with it.

Or would you prefer to enter again?
 
Ok, I'll judge this one. I think i will be clearer if we start a new thread too. Cut and paste for the win hehe
