Thanks all! :D
Chris - 63 wasn't actually a double exposure. I just used another layer on Photoshop for the clouds

Oh thats a cool idea, I used to love doing double exposures on film back in college but I haven't tried since I moved to digital. I will have to give it a go though:)

Well I have never attempted double exposures...I don't know how to do them haha. Will have to try some time :)
 
like this alot, mad specs! good pov, the way your eye is looking away from the camera...
 
awesome stuff as usual, 62 and 64 for me. :)
 
i really like the light. love the hair in this one...
 
You did know there was no glass in your glasses didn't you? Nice "Clark Kent" type portrait.

Today's I can't stop thinking you set the self timer and were running back to your spot when it went off early. I know it didn't but it made me chuckle nonetheless. Would have been nice to have you all in the frame, but the lighting and movement is very good.

Woke up to something really cool in my room this morning! The sun was reflecting off my mirror and if I stood in the right place it made a rainbow on my face :D
I was about to take a photo but realised I didn't have any make up on...so I put it on, but by then it had gone. Argh! Will try again tomorrow...

So these are the shots I took after that incident, when the sun was all lovely in my room at about 7:45am :)
 
#62 (post 424) is stunning. Great lighting and a really simple effect.

Some very creative images in this 365 Briony. Keep it up.

Ian.
 
fantastic natural light in todays...
 
Wow! Absolutely fantastic image!

nice composition to this too! Fantastic natural lighting.

:thumbs: Real nice job here!
 
I've just read/looked at your entire thread, Briony, and love it - some really amazing, interesting shots - dlh's comment about you running back to your spot made me chuckle as well!

I look forward to following your 365! :)

My favourites day 67 - fabulous lighting and a soft, dreamy atmosphere. :)
 
Firstly, how have a i not seen this thread till now? Theres too many for me to comment on individually but so far they are all really really good and some very clever photoshop trickery! Well done for keeping up aswell! I cant imagine it's easy doing this and being in Uni! Keep up the good work and i'll try to visit here more often!

PLEASE view large here!

And also I will kill you if you don't look at the rest of the photos that I have put in the comments in Flickr here! :p

It took me so long to pick one to use as the main photo. I am so so pleased with all of them that I would be perfectly happy to have any of them as the main one. The light is all natural by the way!

Just had a look through these and liking what your doing! Very unique way of doing a 365.

Noticed that you live close to / in / spend time in Beverley too... nice one!
 
I just bloody love your stuff. I can't pick out a single day that stands out cos they're all wonderful. The shot with you disappearing into the frame is great though and I love the simple portrait with the big glasses. Awesome.

Wild crazy Beverley huh! It was pic 2 that gave it away, took me a while to remember it was train station but I knew I recognised it.

Keep up the good work.
 
You have fantastic eyes for portraits... this combined with your photographic skills just creates well... you can see what it creates! :D

Another great picture Briony... Like ordered (I'm too young to die :p) I checked out the ones on flickr, and for me number 5 is also awesome!

Keep up the good work! :thumbs:
 
checked out flickr as instructed! 3 is my fave by a long way. nice work today...
 
More great shots Briony, in fact its an interesting thread to keep dropping in on. I love the shots you posted in the 60's especially 62 65 and 67. You seem to have the concept of light well mastered in all of your images which is a great asset.

the last two are superb briony, the lighting on both is fab.. love 68, really stands out
 
Lovely! 1 and 2 from your flickr page are great!

You are so imaginative! I am just going to give you smiley faces from now on I have run out of superlatives your shots are so great!

:D

nice idea today. as with some of your earlier stuff, there is a slightly menacing feel to this, very polanski...
 
Briony, apologies as I have missed your thread completely! I will be honest and say that I have only looked back on the last few pages and have to say the quality of your shots is super. Of the most recent 67, 68 and 69 really stand out.

Keep up the great work.:clap:

Cheers, Rob.
