#1 for sure. Looks too hot to be standing over to take the shot. Still got your eyebrows?

Cheers Carl, eyebrows still intact but some missing from my hands and forearms, that one was a phone shot done very quickly as I was worried it would either roast me or damage the phone. No way I would risk my DSLR and it would have made framing and focus more difficult anyway.

Many thanks all!! :)
@AlanDorset the cork is actually a piece of off cut from some cork laminate flooring we have in the bathroom, if you saw it from the back it would look like high density foam. It was all I had but worked in a pinch.
 
Super patins! Fine shots too!
 
Wow - song title shot has so much atmosphere!!

And your cutlery shots have blown my mind, how did you get them balanced for the first one?

Thanks Ross, I sort of let the spoons choose for themselves how they balanced after trying over and over to evenly space them in a fan formation. I just started with the biggest and worked up to the tea spoon. :)
 
Not done a lot of photography this week but did have a quick walk around the outside of Lincoln cathedral while there last week. I was using an old film era 21mm lens which caused a lot of distortion so I decided to make the distortion even worse by photo stitching 9 shots together.

Some of the stonework that really caught my eye was the panel depicting what I am guessing is Hell. It seems they really were scared of getting their bits eaten by serpents back then...

Good stuff!

Not a big fan of serpents nibbling me sepent now to be honest :eek:
 
Some nice toolage there Ryan :)
 
Week 37 Occupation
Bit of a shoehorn and I had wished to do a still life with her ladyship's nursing kit but I have been done in by the worst cold/ flu I have had in years. As such I decided this winters occupants of one of our bee hotels counts as Occupation.
Anyway I'm now back off to bed...:puke:

Yep that works well. Have you done a Covid test?

Thanks Dave, yeah and being negative the missus keeps telling me to get over it as its only a cold. Not that I would wish what I have on anyone but if she does happen to catch it she'll certainly be getting the same level of empathy from me. .... who am I kidding, I'll probably be waiting on her hand and foot.( with the occasional 'I told you so'):LOL:
