Damn, there’s some good stuff on this thread

nothing to offer 😳

Some of the 80 riders (yes EIGHTY) on our club christmas ride when we happened upon a BMX pump track.

Great range of content on here. Always interesting.

More of the usual from me.

Something I certainly enjoy. You definitely understand light Andy and this is lovely soft light.

That’s a great spot Ben. It would be intereting to see a version that isolates the shadows on the snow rather than having the fence in the shot. The fence tells you what the shadows are; it would be more interesting perhaps if you could only see the shadows and not be able to immediately understand what causes them.

Not quite as clear as I’d like it to be

This is St Michaels Mount the other day, New Years Eve in fact.

I’m proud as it’s my final photo, my 1095th consecutive photo without a single day missed after 3 years doing a photo a day, which I started because of a thread on here as it happens.

I absolutely love the library of daily memories I’ve created over that 3 years but I’m ready now to go back to normal photo output….so, about the same but without the pressure. 🙂

Goodnight.

I know what you (Kayak23) mean about the “pressure” of taking a “photo a day” I’ve been doing it from 2009 for 3 years solid, then on and off for 2012. Another full year 2013, on and off in 2014 and a full year in 2015.
I promised myself a year off this year but after 2 days I have 2 photos already. It’s a hard hobbit to break once you’ve got over a month or so of dull and under interesting days

Not ones i’m proud of, as they aren’t great, plus I didn’t have a tripod so they are soft due to being handheld, but they are the first pics with my new [to me] Panasonic LX5, taken whilst learning how to use the thing.

Not because it’s an especially good pic, but because the offspring suddenly got the hang of riding a bike.

It’s not often they are all in the same place at once…

Moments like this trump any aesthetic!

Lovely texture and toning on that picture Malvern.

Hi all, just caught up with this thread, not read it for a while. Fantastic pictures all please keep the thread going. They are definitely inspiring me to get better and take more pictures, thank you all for sharing.

Jad those photos are amasing. One of my goals for the year is to get out more and take landscape pictures. Make an effort to venture further away from home and make the effort to head out even when it’s not a perfect sunny afternoon to get interesting views. I have a lot to learn about technique but if I’m not in the right place at the right time it doesn’t matter about the knowledge.

Jacobs Ladder on Ben Lomond, Tasmania yesterday. Middle of summer. Freezing cold.

A couple from a walk in the Peak between Christmas and New Year, nothing special but I like em.

Gran Canaria over Christmas. Must take the bike back…

Hmmm. Looks much better on a dark background. Hey ho.

Not the greatest photograph (it was seriously windy, and wet), but it captures the dramatic sea, I think.

I am thinking it could do with cropping a wee bit.

Andy love the last one; fabulous colouring especially with the trees against the fog.

I’ve been ‘experimenting’ this morning, with both flash and off-camera flash. I’ve never used either but I want to start doing more formal portraiture so I thought I would learn.

These are my first attempts:

And then one with no flash but perhaps some drama.

Greg, I was wandering around Chinatown with my new camera the other day too. Lots of interesting stuff to shoot in Manchester.

Here’s one from today’s ride.
