redcloud's Photo52 2011 Week 3 added "Style"

[redcloud]

First go at a 52. I'm looking forward to trying to follow the themes. I've lots to learn so lets see how this goes in the weeks ahead. All comments are welcome as I do want to improve both my camera work and my pp (which is very basic).
Have fun everyone in the weeks ahead

OK this is my first attempt at a 52 and I'm looking to improve my rather basic photographic skills so any C&C is welcome.

I feel a little bit of a cheat with this first one mind you, mainly because I haven't been able to get out there with the camera to try and shoot a fresh image for this weeks post, (unfortunately the universe has conspired against me this week so far) so I've raided last years archives and done a small amount of pp on this shot of a tiny Hermit crab I took last summer while on holiday (well it does have it's accommodation with it) .

I could very well add a second Image later this week if I get some time to go shoot something else.

Finally managed to get out there and photograph something for this weeks theme. Found this in a derelict brick building and had to get some shots. Fairly basic simple image but covers the theme I think All comments welcome as above

I like the crab one, good dof. I was after a snail for my first week, but couldn't find one.

I really like the hermit crab! My brother used to keep them. I think it would be nice if he was slightly less central, maybe on the right looking into space.

The graffiti capture is also a good one. Great composition!

Thanks for all the comments on last weeks shots folks, I'll be thinking about all the advice and encouragement during my photographic journey.

So here's this weeks effort. I was struggling for idea's and inspiration as I wanted to do something different but as time ran out and the weather wasn't helping I grabbed a few quick shots of these bluebells beginning to sprout in the garden.

Nice set David,

I especially like the crab shot.

Every different 52 I look at, gives me more inspiration to think long & hard about my next subject :shrug:
