Photo Club: Suggestion / Chat

KIT, great idea with the photo club thread, I always love the photo threads.

I was wondering if people would consider putting a link through to their photo stream so that we can check out some of their other photos?

Hey Doug, thanks! I saw your post before you edited it. Was wondering to ask folk to link their photos, but some people struggle to just post the darn pic, so didn't want to complicate it 😀

Besides, each thread/week I want to see something different, which you might not get if you've already looked through folk's accounts.

I'm easy though if folk want to do it, just no talking, right?! 😉

Don't forget that this will allow you to link images easily in forum posts, which both meets the Flickr T&Cs and means you can click through to the photostream easily: http://www.stewartpratt.com/?p=88

Hi Kit, I posted in the other thread then thought better of it so started this thread. I know what you mean about not looking through some people's accounts to keep things fresh for the other weeks.

It was your idea so go with whatever you want, I was just interested to see more photos from some of the entries.

there should be another forum for photo's/photography…

Posted it in the other thread, but might as well stick it here too.

Matt – There great, love the Top 20 ones, very good.

Here is mine. All 365 ones so far:

I was wondering if this could develop a bit ('scuse the pun!). Maybe each week, have a Photo Club assignment for the following week i.e. photos of your city/town/village or photos from around your home. Had thought about themes like B&W, pets, etc. each week, but unless you're already a prolific photographer, or have family, car etc then it can be difficult for as many people as possible to join in (which is the idea!).

Thoughts and opinions?!

Sounds like a good idea Kit.

They have a "photo of the week" competition on Kitecrowd (was Flexifoil Forum). Each week they set a word/theme and then at the end of the week people vote and the winner gets to pick the theme for the following week.

Would be good to have one running here as there seems to be some great photographers here.

Lots of pretty mountain bike photos…

Good idea Kit 🙂

Will, how did you go about the one with the dog on floor infront of the fire? Really like it but no idea how you decide on lighting and getting correct exposure

Here's ours[/url]

Will : was your comment directed at me? If so, cheers!

Kit – I like your idea of assignments/topics. You could even do what some photo comps do which is to simply give a title and how it's interpreted is up to the photographer (which is exactly the same as a topic I suppose 🙂 ). Anyway, as in your first post you said any thread started must be Photo Club – the topic can be included within in the title – therefore still no talking.

I have wanted to learn how to use a camera for years – here's my chance (I missed the photo a day thing and to be honest I'd probably forget to do that each day).

Not sure I like the other thread though, discussion of the photos is part of the point of putting them up.

Ewan: Got some nice photos btw, looks like Helvellyn was abit of an epic!

Well, I wanted a thread where people kept their mouths shut for once 😉 But seriously, the idea was to get as many people posting as possible, have a bit of fun, and we can appreciate some nice things without the need for chat. A bit like going on a ride without your phone, for example. You can just enjoy the scenery.

By all means, start another thread if you really feel the need to talk about the photos, but I think most folk will be happy to just look and post 🙂

Cheers for the suggestions, maybe I'll add an assignment to the thread during the week.

Didmatt: Cheers – likewise! Helyven was indeed a bit of an epic, worth it tho, stunning riding!

Photo theme/assignment is a good idea. DPReview do this – see here[/url].
