PHOTO COMPETITION — COMMENTS THREAD

Shrews

I'm not sure why there seems to be lower entries?  I don't see anything that's difficult to find a photo opportunity for, it's not like it's highly technical or anything like that, that would surely be for a photography forum not a guitar forum.

I only use my mobile, but have become more in tune with what functions are on my phone and learned loads. This extra knowledge has definitely helped me take better photos when travelling over the last few years. 

I think people just forget to be honest and then they realise too late, so I think a weekly reminder (poke with a stick) would be a good idea.

The topic is fine.

We have had the issue of interest in a photo competition dropping off before, but this one has run for far longer than anything previous, so well done @skullfunkerry for keeping it going. 

I just haven’t had a lot of time over the last month or so and I guess it’s the same for everyone else: we all get snowed under every now and then. I’ll try to get something submitted.

Thanks all. Good idea on the reminders, @Shrews - I'll start doing that

I forgot, woops! Watch this space at the weekend!

I agree with boogieman and Shrews. The topic is fine and broad enough to make an entry, it’s likely other stuff getting in the way – I can say that’s how it’s been for me. Either way, I suppose if there are two entries or twenty it doesn’t really matter too much. It’s just an easy-going opportunity to practice our photography skills and share our results as and when we can. FWIW @skullfunkerry ;I’m grateful you’ve kept it going for as long as you have

I always like seeing people’s interpretations of the themes. And usually thinking, bugger, I wish I’d thought of that !

I usually think that I have plenty of time and then deadline day is here

Some of you may have already seen this thread, but if not: @Strangefan has a leathercraft business, and I got him to make me a wrist strap. I sent him the Peak Design anchor clip, and then he's made the strap to fit. Very happy with it, if anyone is looking for a new strap then give him a shout - his website is https://www.mjhleather.co.uk/

@skullfunkerry thanks dude, first ever strap, and loved making it  

boogieman

Cool looking strap.

What does everyone think about silhouettes? Do they count as shadows?
