Week 25.....Sign(s)

Stigmata would be considered a "divine" sign by many....

 
Now wash your hands and get the tea cooked :D

Great idea Ruth, simple and imaginative :)

Not my hands...get yer own tea :lol:
Thanks though :-)
It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the theme....I guess 12 years of Catholic school leaves scars :D
 
Clever, different take, nicely shot. (y)
 
Very imaginative idea for the theme Ruth - nicely exposed. :clap:
 
That's excellent Ruth - not easy to retain a pure white bg as well as detail in the subject. Love the vibrant colour and especially the ruddy brown tips to:clap: the leaves.
 
You played a real Ace(r) there Ruth :D

Very nice :)
 
Ruth, green against the white background is spot on, I like the vibrancy of the colour and the tough of shadows
 
interesting looking leaves, nicely laid out on clean BG with gentle shadow. :clap:
 
2 cracking shots there Ruth.

Love the idea for Sign and the Flora shot is well lit, composed, and exposed :clap::clap::clap:
 
Sign - Very religious of you Ruth. An interesting, thought provoking shot.
Flora - Well taken shot, simple and effective. I see you're not telling us what those leaves are from... :whistle:

I too like the symmetry. Nice consistent white background and technically well done. I hated this week's theme so you've done well!

Really like your last three shots - the lather completely makes the simple shot for me and your take on signs is so original (or is that just my lack of Catholic education?!)

Thank you all for the comments, they're much appreciated.
For those wondering, the leaves are from an Acer. I've got 9 of them :lol:
 
Week 27.

Some Illegal Activity.



My original idea, I feel, would have caused a little too much consternation, so I went for the less controversial option. :-)

Ah yes, but someone else didn't spot it....

....so it would have been rude not to reply.

So, double :p:p
 
Novel idea for the theme Ruth and a good composition. Is there a light cyan/blue cast or is that down to my monitor?

Considering the recent events is this not in pretty bad taste?
Click to expand...

I don't believe so.
My original shot maybe...as I said in my initial image post this week.
Events have happened.
I for one will not speak of them in hushed tones and darkened rooms.
 
Should be entitled Terrorist Activity.

I'm OK with it, just think it looks a rushed job ...
 
Blimey it's a very different take on the theme and I like it!!

Love the bright Red and the colours on the map against the BG

Not sure about the active photo Ruth, but I can see your idea but a little controversial for me

Fair enough, thanks for commenting.

Cobra said:
That's Ruth all over :D

Hush, you. :D

pjm1 said:
Oooh... very sombre! Well captured, although not 100% on the background. Comp etc. otherwise works well though - and a great idea (y)

I did struggle over what to use for my BG to be honest.
Thanks for commenting.

I'm interested, in what way rushed?
