April Photo Comp....WET!

Nina said:
LOVE the bollard. Were the colours photoshopped at all?

only in terms of slight basic adjustments such as brightness/contrast to get the scan looking the same as a print i have of the image.

i see it's got some votes, thanks ppl!

my votes will be up tomorrow once i've had another look at all the entries
 
It was really hard making three choices this month as there were so many I like but;

1) Sink - Nina...thought this was a fantastic exotic shot that really captured my imagination.

2) Street Party II - Aurora Green...Perfect for the theme and a really great photo - I find these sorts of photo's so difficult so I am full of admiration.

3) Shelter - Firky...I like the grain and the fit with the theme.

I also really liked,

Under the bridge - Mauvais Mangue...I really liked the framing
low tide - robster970
washing - Nina
Entry 2 - Snadge - nice macro.
Ferry - Riot Sky - again really great for this months theme and really energetic.
Dog - Chooch
 
Difficult to choose, but for me....


1, Smaskifa - chorlton (awsome scenery, well framed)

2, Three blocks - Nina (kept coming back to this)

3, Finland Jetty - tom crags (stunning colours)




(and wow! thanks for all the votes people.)

Looks the same....
My is taken at the Gullfoss waterfall near Þingvellir, (site of the viking parliament)

You're right it is a totally awesome place, I am still completely in love with Iceland.

yeah i took my around feb time... words fail me when describing how beautiful that place is....
 
Lovely photos :)

My choice was:

1) Street Party by Aurora Green
2) Voyeur by robster970
3) Sink by Nina
 
Bit tricky to choose, I agree, but some of them really stood out!

1) Street party II - Aurora Green - fantastic photo!
2) pool, sea & sky - cybertect - made me feel like I was there :cool:
3) Washing - nina
 
i went for images that said 'wet' rather than 'water' iyswim. which made things a bit easier for me because it took out all of the beach shots (no offence - they just didnt fit the theme in my head. but they were all lovely).

the first one that grabbed me (and has done since i was posted up - its been my desktop for a few weeks :oops:) was varanasi washing - thefuse

next is second entry - guerillaphoto because theres something that intrigues me about the history of that sofa, and just how long it had to be damp, and then wet, to look like that.

and third street party II - aurora green because it has so much energy and wetness :)

also highly commended was Finland jetty - tom craggs but although i thought it was a great pic and would make a lovely print it wasnt 'wet' enough for this month.

thanks for the vote. i've always liked that picture but i only noticed after i'd posted it that it was quite pixelated so i was surprised that it got a vote at all when lined up to some of the others which are so technically perfect.
 
its not just about quality (well not with me) but also about fitting to the theme etc. and also an interesting subject always helps. and your pic has it all. imo.
 
Okeley dokeley - here's my voting for this month. Some lovely pics - thanks folks!
