We were looking for diagonals for a prompt. It was a very banal photo, so I decided that a b&w with selective colour would make it more interesting. This boom is behind townhall as a safety element as there are rapids below.

I took a short road trip last weekend, as a rehearsal for the long one I'm taking in two weeks, weather and my health permitting.
The second deliberate attempt to take a photo like Olga Karlovac was by panning with a skater. In this case, I chose the subject to have a bright colour, so I could try to use selective colour. This is what I got (thanks to Lightroom). Do you have any constructive criticism?
I'm not quite sure when, why or how this foot-tall stone/ceramic chicken appeared on the mini-roundabout just down the street, but I suspect he/she is too afraid to cross the road, not least because I've yet to meet a Canadian (at least in Vancouver anyway) who has the remotest idea of how to properly navigate a roundabout, even the smallest, traffic-calming kind. Cars come flying out cutting right in front of you, or come to a complete stop part way around, and/or drive the wrong way around them (bless). The times I've nearly been smooshed - both as a driver and as a pedestrian, by people who simply have no clue. Uggghhh. No wonder this poor fella looks terrified and is shedding its shell.
This is a capture I have taken at the zoo at Heidelberg, Germany in October. The Galapagos giant tortoise was grazing on the lawn and the leaves which were falling down from the trees in the enclosure were a welcome snack. This sight inspired me to create a different kind of autumn pic although I have the feeling that I have (slightly) exaggerated the selective colour here. :)
Think I'll leave the title to you guys!
Took this shot ages ago whist enjoying this rather madcap street performance in Covent Garden, London.

These are the berries that your Mum told you not to eat when you was a child.............. mine still has to remind me now not to eat them ;-)
As much as I'd like to pride myself in textbook compositions, I sometimes feel as if the rules are meant to be broken. It’s just a matter of knowing when to break these rules that make them difficult to frame in thought. My goal is for you to see past the lines and curves, and see something meaningful in my work.

Dedicated to Fung, who wrote me a wonderful testimonial~ Thank you !! ^^
A shot from the archive, this puddle made for an interesting subject in the middle of Piccadilly Circus.
I'm not the best at selective colour etc on Photoshop but thought I'd see if I could tone the cones down and I think fading the orange out does improve the look of the High Street! I also lost the red on the flags on the right, so have had to saturate them to bring them back to life!
What are your thoughts?
So this is the 1st camera I ever owned. Its a toy pull the string camera. It talks it says
'"Come on smile"
"watch the birdy!"
"Thats not a smile"
"Say cheese!"
I found it in the attic today because I had to babysit my niece and nephew all day, no time for a creative photo so this is more of a personal one. As I was taking this photo my niece who's 2 kept coming up to me to pull the string :)
Rochester bridge over the River Medway in 2016. This is the southern pedestrian part. Two traffic lanes on the immediate right with the rail part on the northern side. There has been various bridges here since Roman times. The town of Strood is on the west side of the Medway, straight ahead.
We've been seeing what you wanted, got us cornered right now
Fallen asleep from our vanity, might cost us our lives
I hear they're getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They're coming down the hills from behind
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created,
I want to be awakened somehow
When we start killing it all will be falling down
From the Hell that we're in
All we are is fading away
When we start killing...
Yes, that really is a real butchers cleaver, yes we were in public woods, yes she could barely hold it with both hands...
Once again one of my children plays a part in the weird ideas that live in my head and are occasionally allowed to escape.
