A piece of personal history and very good too - great poem as well :) Such diverse interpretations of the themes makes this a fascinating exercise

Well done Ruth - nice one :)

Thanks John thought you might like this weeks :)
 
Nicely exposed and composed image Ruth. Like your take on history. Brave of you to open up and share a little of you with us TP folk. Poems great too :clap:
 
I agree with all of the above so won't repeat it;). You should be proud of what you've achieved and the work you've put into getting there:thumbs:.
 
I know all about that struggle, been there, done it and bought the t-shirt. The photo with the story is really powerful.

Did you try to get the compostion in such a way you could read the poem in the photograph? I don't know if that would have been possible and still get the mug sufficiently in shot to recognise it as a mug.

Definately looking forward to next week's shot from you :thumbs:
 
Thanks all

Simon - i did try but with the poem being on 2 pages the only real way to do it was straight down which ruined the rest of the shot, i kinda liked the sitting at the table perspective so went with the end.
 
Thanks for sharing this with us all....

and yes it's very much a piece of history:clap:

Well done:thumbs:
 
Well done Ruth and thanks for having the courage to share that with us :clap: Great DoF and a nice clean composition, and thanks too for the poem. I can just imagine the spellchecker crashing if you tried to use Word :D
 
Loved the photo, very nice exposure. only slight thing I found the difference in focus on the mug just slightly distracting but very minor -really liked it.
 


Not much to say about this really the idea was learning starts with mistakes and trying again :)

It also inspired me to enter the monthly comp here :)
 
And there goes another idea :shrug:

Nice shot BTW. I really like the small DoF, even if for some reason my eye is drawn to the yellow at the end of the pencil (near your sig). However, I think the plain light blue background really suits the image, I can see this working quite successfully as a Stock image.

Great shot Ruth. Lovely interpretation and thoughts on the topic. Very nicely executed. Also like the comp entry :thumbs:
 
Nicely done! Lovely differential focus
 
Nice image the shallow depth of field is very effective.:clap:
 
Well had a hard time with this theme, but really wanted to get something today as i'am working the rest of the week.

As the other image is a little too soft, i am swapping it to another from the set that is a little sharper. :) Original image still on Flickr.

Good idea, nicely composed too.

The plate and spoon make it work, I might have stopped the lens down a little but its a really good shot, I see what you were going for.
 
Kinda dreamy, surreal shot Ruth! I'm in line with the comments above about the egg being a little more in focus! Good idea and it once again meets the brief :D

I bought some of these yesterday ;) You beat me to the punch!

And why do they ban Tin Tin ;) :)?
 
Thanks for the feedback guys, i agree about the focus for some reason the other one on flickr with the egg open was a bit sharper - i think i got too close for this one.
 
I like what you did on Learning - something a bit different again :)

Coming up with a fine idea for suprise too - make me what to know what the suprise was! (MInd I'm sure they are not as good as they were when I was young!)
