weekly steve's 52 for 2012 more vice added

[Donnie]

Number 3 for me, nice new 5p among the well worn other coins. Plus I think compositionally it's the best one.

Hi Stephen

this came to mind for magical still doing win and shiny

 

[michael23]

That looks really good, a tricky subject but the exposure looks quite good. I might be tempted to crop out the light on the left hand side.

 

[mystic-cay]

that picture is amazing.... ive never been and this picture makes me wanna go so much more

 

[Deleted member 3428]

Very magical and shiny at the same time I think

 

[Manc Man]

Magical
Great shot, nothing more magical than Disney.

Thought the idea of the challenge was to take a photo after the theme had been announced or was it pure luck you were there this evening.

 

[0zerocool0]

No I was there last year but it came to mind I take it as my photos but am going to try some new images when I get a min

 

[0zerocool0]

thanks guys it was amazing and i had only brought the camera that day so i was pretty happy with the shot

 

[blakester]

I like that Stephen. You've handled the exposure well on the lights against the black sky. Very colourful too.
I feel it needs a little CCW rotation though and perhaps crop a 1/3 off the rhs so the castle isnt central in the frame. Iain

 

[gramps]

Nice one ... I tend to agree that the LHS light is a bit distracting, maybe clone it out?

 

[lizzy23]

Hi Stephen looks like i've missed your 52 up to now apologies, i'm now subscribed, you look to have made a good start and i'll look forward to seeing the rest

 

[Donnie]

Right just playing catchup to get up to date now I've posted my Shiny late and still need to shoot my "magical".

Magical - Certainly on theme and well exposed, it does look like it needs a slight straighten though?

crop and clone by 0Zerocool0, on Flickr

tried a clone and crop think it looks better

 

[blondie606]

Hi Stephen

the crop of Magical is spot on for me....totally on theme , well exposed...really good shot mister

 

[*Sarah*]

A lovely magical photo. I prefer the crop as well!

 

[posiview]

I want to go back there...might even take my daughter

Great colours and well exposed.

Cloning out the patches on the lower trees would improve, I feel.

Cheers.

 

[Delta Skies]

I also prefer the crop you've given magical

finally found a shiny this is a car we painted at work came out nice and real shiny

 

[Donnie]

Certainly on theme, good picture and liking the car.

I would say though that the lump of wall / concrete on the lower left does detract a little.

really struggling with win so dug into my old photos not the best photo I've ever taken but its to the point the blue one won by the way

 

[michael23]

Loving that orange colour, very shiny indeed. Win, I like this,

 

[blondie606]

Hi Steve


cracking image for Shiny ....Lotus by any chance ? Great color works well against the concrete & very very shiny...nice angle as well

Win....yup , on theme , bit of detail in the sky..possibly a tigher crop to lose the railings & put more focus on the cars ?

Keep up the great work mister

my go at vice

 

[0zerocool0]

beer by 0Zerocool0, on Flickr


Another vice they are my two poker and beer

 

[Delta Skies]

My preference of the two is for #1 although I think if you'd widened the beer shot and had some nice condensation on the bottle it might add to the image

 

[0zerocool0]

thanks i liked #1 to i took a few of the bottle this ones ok to

 

[michael23]

Number 1 out of the first 2 you posted, I don't really like the crop of the bottle in #2. The new pic of the bottle is much better.

 

[Blank_Canvas]

Hi Steve,

Really nice set of images. I'm not sure how i have managed to miss your thread. Nice work.

Nick

 

[0zerocool0]

Thanks guys I thought a pic of a bottle would be boring so tried a bit hard to be interesting

 

[posiview]

Hi, Stephen, #1 for me. I like the low angle and focus. Nice and sharp with great colours.

The only issue I have is the BG...I'd prefer it to be nice and white.

Cheers.

 

[Allan.H]

win looks really good almost like its model size at least it would without the person leaning on the fence on the right

 

[blondie606]

Hi Stephen


1st Vice....great low POV & focus just right....BG is a bit shadowy but other than that yup , like it

Not so keen on the bottles though , the label shot does nothing for me though I can see what your were trying for , 2nd image , for me at least needs to show the whole bottle though I do like condensation that you caught .

 

[0zerocool0]

thanks for the comments was not sure about the label pic i did a few here's a full bottle
