July Photography Challenge Discussion Thread

Well, after several months of glancing in, and giving the occasional vote, I've taken the plunge and entered..
 
I'm concerned about who wears what in the Brev household, but another intriguing entry (and only after a handful of days). Voting will be even tougher than usual.

Welcome. Was that taken in a shoe shop?

I had to ask permission to take mine in the local DIY shop.

I was lucky enough to recently get a tour of the Barker Shoes factory in Northampton, these were amongst their more 'interesting' offerings. (and apparently very popular!)
 
Jebus, Perp, you could've put some sort of warning in before posting a massive picture of a spider! eep! :eek:

Anyway, second picture's not too spectacular from me, but people never seem to know what colour my eyes are. They're that nondescript. I had an ex tell me they were 'crazy coloured' which I kinda like. I call them 'green.' (I swear in real-life they're green, but in pretty much every photo I took today they looked blue or grey!) :rolleyes:
 
Very clever picture Mouse, I would never be able to take a picture of one of my eyes, someone else's perhaps.

And the spider? Ahhh, he's cute. (You might not believe it but I'm a terrible arachnophobe) - but was pretty pleased with the picture. I think I quite like this new camera. :D
 
galaxy also fell foul of the software automatic newbie-link-catcher. I've approved the picture, so everyone make sure you scroll up and check it out.

I think green is the only colour not in the photo. :p

I think you're right. I picked the greenest looking picture of the bunch too! :rolleyes:

It wasn't too difficult really, I managed it with the dog on my lap. Worst thing was blinding myself with the flash and trying to get a picture where I didn't look drunk.

Cute? Mental. :p
 
You should see how small he was in reality. Honestly I would not have got any closer to anything bigger!
 
Just posting my last picture.

Thinking I'm sticking with my 'still learning about all this photography malarkey' and going with a bit of fun...

Like it...scrolling down, it just shows how colour can change perception, contrast the top half of the pic (AAAGH Scary Dalek!! Run Away) with the bottom. (Ahhh! Little cute Dalek, wanna play.):)
 
GASP!

Pep, I love that! Well, there's a surprise, I know. So...many...Daleks! Really want one of the orange ones! (Another shocker).
 
Well it might look like a lot of Daleks, but it's not all of them, but don't worry Brev there is nothing bigger.

If you look closely you'll note that nearly all of them are missing at least one appendage. Pepr Jr. may well love his Daleks, but he does have a tendency to amputate bits from them fat to often.

Hoops if I ever find an intact orange one (there were 14 at one point) I'll send it to you!
 
Aw, Pep, that's very kind of you! I have various Dalek-based items (poster, model, magnet stuck to the lamp next to me at the moment, bottle-opener that screams "EXTERMINATE!", to mention some of them) but an orange one would be the best!
 
I've just been having a gander at the photos posted so far and all I can say is... WOW!!!

Some of the photos are absolutely superb and it's going to be tough going when it comes to the vote! How can I possibly chose just one!?!?!?

I have to say my efforts seem a little dull in comparrison. Still, they were photos taken a while back on holiday of things I thought looked pretty :p Having seen the competition though I think next month I'll be putting some actual effort into it rather than just picking something out from my existing albums :D

I'm looking forward to seeing what else pops up before the voting begins!!!
 
I'll be closing the entry thread and opening the poll in just over twelve hours, so if you've got a late entry, post it while you can!!
 
What a tough month - I think I'd include every entry on my shortlist this time! Honourable mentions to Moonbat, Leisha, Cul and Mosaix, but my vote goes to Wy's ribbons.:)
