Photo a day 2013

[Brettus]

Well, you did ask. :-)

Keith.

I DID and WOW what a write up! Impressive shot and dedication to the cause.

[Sir Trev]

Keith, you are too clever for your own good, cracking shot :)
Here's mine for today. Still playing with the Lumix & thought I'd have a little go at something different. Amazing what you can do with a washing up bowl & a tap :)

Got let out of work early so I snapped this. Heavily edited (see "cheating" thread)

Lew's shot is ace, Mister_C's really stands out too with the tractor tyre tracks, they give texture to the tracks.

Richie, nice shot but I always find closeups of body parts to be creepy. Nice shot though, different from the snow ones :) I'm assuming this wasn't because you slipped over whilst taking a snow picture and ended up with a macro shot of your hand over the lens :D

Also, Brettus, i really really like that.. Its weirdly warm and calming.

[maviczap]

Here's one I grabbed on the way home on the school run

Would have looked prettier yesterday, as there would have been more snow.

But for the first time in 5 days, that strange yellow object in the sky, with the blue surrond

Now you read my mind there, I googled where to find Coca-cola in glass bottles only yesterday.
couldn't find it anywhere...
So my question to you is.... Where the d1ckings did you find and purchase it?

[Brettus]

Sainsburys
http://grab.by/jjN4

Soda from glass bottles is SO much nicer, why can't we be civilised and recycle properly and have all our drinks in these bottles :-\

I'd picked them up as a treat last week as I'm trying to cut down my caffeine intake and these cost much more than cans but also taste better.

Speaking of glass bottled soda, check out what I picked up at M&S:

I tend to buy Pepsi myself, probably because they sponsored the Suzuki GP team back in the 90's with Revin Kevin on the RGV.

Do I spy a Dell power cord in the backgound by the way???

It has just occurred to me this has become a photographic mega thread, it is nice that it gets updated so frequently and has comments in it.

If I could not recognise one of our own parts I'd be shot at dawn, without a blindfold.

This thread has made me start thinking about getting an SLR again. Some of the fantastic effects you guys are getting by using the features my compact has not got is inspriational.

[Richie]

Got this photo today (made out of 6 exp) 3 of each left hand side and right hand side, converted to HDR and merged both images together.

The light was going but coming out of the garage what little there was reflected on these drops of melted snow on the back of my car. Will try it again with more light tomorrow.

Nice, not like the murky Dover I was in today

[Brettus]

Nice shot Col, Something about yellow lights really irks me at the moment and I often rebalance the image to make whites white again but that might just be me. Nice composition and the angle differentiates it.

Nice! Not often a fan of filters but the negative works. Still think the natural is the better shot but I love blue so that's likely why :-)

[maviczap]

Its just the app that my mob's camera has, I just like to play around with it.

But today's blue sky was a welcome sight after yesterdays thick grey cloud, it was even warm outside in the sunshine

[mister c]

Like the natural pic Mav. Brett, is that a bit of OCD, or is that how they're stored? Lol. It's an interesting bit of subject matter though.

Here's mine for today. Still playing with stationary objects, can't wait to start on moving objects lol

pretty uninspiring really.
Liking your latest shot, you are getting good at this angling stuff and making the ordinary extraordinary. hand held still?

No that is , was, my Isuzu truck that I drive in the snow but found out today cyl. head has a crack. Has 200k + miles and used oil so old motor not worth a new head. Will be selling off as parts.

Now I have to find something else to drive in the snow, quickly. :rolleyes:
