    Judging for this slightly stranger than normal round will run over the next 15 days. I'm quite impressed with what a couple of people have managed to do with the subject...

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,273 ✭✭✭Morlar


    Elven's one for the win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    BTW Carbon Copy is the one for me :)

    (Fade you never commented on mine, I'm disappointed I created it with you in mind LOL!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 640 ✭✭✭CraggyIslander


    poor lil swampy's crying into his pint atop me monitor, but its those legs that get my vote:p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,966 ✭✭✭elven


    Hmmm it was meant to be about shoes, not legs!

    (But I'll take the vote, thank you very much!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,624 ✭✭✭✭Fajitas!

    I have to go with the unwashed masses on this one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    yikes.. there's landslide wins and theres landslide wins but this takes the cake.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,966 ✭✭✭elven


    Ummmm....

    I'm not sure if I should be proud of my photographic abilities, or just my legs. I'll pretend the voters are impressed by my compositional skills, maybe :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 287 ✭✭latchiko


    Great shot elven! It's easy to see you put a lot of thought into it and it's a great take on the theme.

    Thanks to those who voted for my entry (Carbon Copy). :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,745 ✭✭✭doonothing


    going out is fantastic, very impressed!
    well done elvie

    You calling me a wimmen?

    :D

    Looking back...yeah, probably should have...

    Hmmm, maybe work on the stubble a bit more...

    Next time...next time...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    whisht... take your humiliating beating like a man :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭odonnell


    Before i say anything can i just start by saying i KNOW this isnt the done thing... its not normal and somewhat undesirable for spouses to be posting in a forum where they quite obviously dont know the rear end of a donkey from a Canon - BUT, i just couldnt resist making one observation (as i normally follow these competitions from afar)...

    Whilst elvens shot is cool, great composition, good lighting, lovely idea and all that... stuff.... and well done darling....

    what nobody could know is that those bloody shoes have been on the bedroom floor since that shot was posted. so... please, before you vote in the future... please spare a thought for the ailing husbands of the boards who have to compete with a digital camera and boards.fecking.ie for the affections of their respective partners.

    'going out' is how i perceive my mrs - halfway out the door though normally with combats, walking boots, and camera bag.

    Aha, perhaps we should consider a disqualification for not tidying away the shoes?!? The cat is out of the bag now...

    So you can't be absolutely certain that they are her legs???
    Might be a steward's enquiry here.

    loved carbon copy and going out.

    Going out: The atmosphere created reminds me of a hitchcock movie, lots of suspense......
    :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,653 ✭✭✭m_stan


    my vote went to julies pins. I have to admit to being a big fan of her photos, but this one is a particular fave of mine. it's not only an instantly eye-catching and attracive photo to me, but on closer inspection it tells a much deeper story at the same time as asking so many possible questions - all of which come together to make such an amazing shot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    Oi you with the legs, pick the next challenge please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,966 ✭✭✭elven


    I promise, they are mine... and I did tidy the frickin shoes away. I pushed them under the bed :)

    I think that the next challenge should be -

    dah dah dummmmmmm

    Minimalism!

    How's that sound? Hasn't been done already, has it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    that's grand... Do you want to provide a definition to work off or should we leave it open to interpretation?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,966 ✭✭✭elven


    I think minimalism speaks for itself, dare I say - it's simple enough? ;) You could go for macro, landscape, something in between... it could be abstract, colour, bw, anything. Yay!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    grand sooooo


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,764 ✭✭✭Valentia


    Well done Julie. Well deserved :D
