WEEKLY CHALLENGE FOR WEEK ENDING FRIDAY 12/4/2013 - Documentary

[borofan]

The next round starts here - it seems relentless!

 

[Snips]

It does indeed. I'm busy polishing my halo cos I'd no idea how to tackle this one. A peek at google images and I have one taken (this afternoon).

I'll be interested to see what is posted this week.

 

[borofan]

Yes, I look forward to seeing what comes round. No real ideas yet for me!

 

[Lear]

Can someone explain to me what this is? Sounds interesting.

It is a weekly challenge with no winners or losers. The intention is to encourage ourselves to go out every week and take pictures using a nominated theme as the subject and to see what interpretation others have to that theme. Having said that images have been posted that weren't taken at the appropriate time but no one really minds! It's simply a bit of fun so join in if you wish. The themes are listed here

and if you read through the thread you will get the idea.

Here's my go for this one. (Second time round - I closed it instead of submitting the reply last time round )

 

[borofan]

I would have preferred to see the faces of the winners and the trophy/prize they had won. Is that sunshine?

No No cant be sunshine - they all have winter coats on

 

[Snips]

We didn't trust the weather!

I thought about taking this the other way around but couldn't get a clear shot of the photographers to make sense out of the photograph, if you see what I mean. Thank you for the comment though.

 

[borofan]

Well here's mine. I really struggled to find something sensible so concentrated on the changes being made to the recently closed Natwest bank to convert it to a charity shop. Good pratice for PP even if the subject is not too good!

 

[Snips]

Well, that second one is definitely different! It takes a moment to work out, but I like that. I also like that colour on the window in the first shot.

I found this topic next to impossible if truth be told. These subjects don't get easier do they?

Who's idea was this? LOL :smile: (Actually, I'm very grateful for you getting me on to this as it does get me thinking much more.)

 

[borofan]

Yes, not an easy topic and next week's is worse! The second shot was taken from the right of the vans in the first one. I photoshopped in the sign of the charity and the bank because there were no features left that showed its original use. The cutting into strips was trying to show it being put together for a new use.

 

[tenchy]

that's not sugar loaf in the background of your edward?

 

[Snips]

I think that's Harley's Hill or Harley's Mountain (I forget which). Named after a local family, believe it or not. Is there a Tenchy Hill near Hereford? :smile:

If it's not that hill then it's the ridge just to the west of Bucknell (on your right as you go on the main road to Knighton.)
