July Photography Challenge Discussion Thread

Thanks for the mention, Taly!

I was undecided between Wy's and Mouse's flower shots - I had to defer to the second image of both snappers, and Wy's was the stronger of the two. That's where my vote fell.
 
Wow, thanks for the votes guys!

I found it hard to choose this month, and it was close for me between Cul's pastels, Leisha's lollies and Perp's Daleks but in the end it was Cul's pastels that got my vote.
 
Very tough choice! I really liked the Skittles, and the Daleks, and was almost swayed by the color palette and sheds of mosaix, but there was just something about Wybren's ribbons. I didn't even look at the votes before voting, so it was interesting to discover that my choice was quite popular!

I never managed to take any good pictures or find time to dig through old ones this month, sad to say.
 
I'm struggling to make up my mind, but I think I'm down to two.

Thanks for the mentions on the Daleks folks, but I'm kind of glad no one is actually voting for it - I'm pretty sure it would be voting for subject matter rather than skill and composition. ;)
 
OK folks Tricky choice.

Here are the highlights:-

LittleMissy: A strangely set scene. Oddly haunting and arcadian in a way.

Mosaix: Undooubtable if the theme had been 'Colours' then Mosaix would have been hard to beat.

Talysia: might have been a close second as, although lacking in the range of Mosaix, it nust have taken hours to arrange those pencils so precisely.

Moonbat: I liked, especially as the focus was so sharp over all the picture and those pebbles were strangely hypnotic.

Mouse: Eyeball - serious hair in the gate problem there.

Alchemist: At least he paint seems to be fading and hopefully, wont be repainted.

The vote went to Alchemist for the effect/power that colour has, rather than the brightness of the subject.

Fair enough. I did plan on posting a 'better' photo than my eye, but I fancied something different and I spent so long taking the photo I had to post it! :D

Yes, I need a hair cut!

Anyway, I voted Alchemist for the same reason as TEiN. Though I really liked them all (apart from the scary-ass spider!).
 
I'm literally open-mouthed that TEiN and Mouse voted for me. Thanks very much folks. I had a rush of blood to the head this month, and thought I'd try something different.

I voted for Wybren's ribbons. In the long period after the flurry of early posting, this was the one that stayed in my head.

Also, great to see some "new" people taking part.

And galaxy, if you're still about, what was yours? It was very interesting, whatever it was.
 
It was a very hard choice but in the end by a whisper I went for Wybren.

Leisha came sooooo close though with the sweets!
 
I believe congratulations should go to Wybren. Congratulations Wybren!
 
Congratulations, Wy - and thanks for the vote, Boneman!
 
In a suitable Homer Simpson stylee... DOH!!!

The end of July seems to have skipped passed me when I wasn't looking (where does the time go!?), thus I forgot to come on and vote here! :eek:

Congratulations to Wybren!!! :D

Thank you for the mention. I'm guessing this is in regard to the 'Fairy Garden' scene!? That one was actually taken at Wookey Hole in, surprisingly enough, the Fairy Garden which is where you come out of the caves :D
 
That would explain the odd 'other worldly' sensation it gave me.
