A new round, around the theme Light! And the first week - week 21 of
P52-3 - the concept is Night. Not a thing most of us do on a daily basis
but a thing most of us try every now and then. I want to see photos made between
dusk and dawn.... (the dark period...)

Just some backgrounds and some ideas:
night photography lesson
night photography tutorial
60 beautiful examples: just for inspiration

Time Frame: pictures for week 21 are to be taken and posted between
20101218 and 20101226, so from December 18th - December 26th, 2010.

Rules:
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested in eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-3 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by nonPentax
cameras are allowed. Cameras can be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot and Medium Format.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
8. Any picture taken from 20100731 to listed closing date is acceptable for the two
“Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-3-51 & 52.

Thanks Lisa, I was a bit in doubt, I have another one without the car but when I see that one I'm missing something.

Just saw that oen and you're right. More dramatic tension with car and the reflection from car lights on ground is nice. One with out car is very quiet.

Six entries up to now....we can use some more....must be possible, with these dark days at the northern hemisphere....

Finally had the time for a few photos, here is what I have:

Nightly Staicase


When I looked first at that staircase, one person was in there, but disappeared once I was ready to shoot. I waited for another one, but it took too long, so this is what I got.

Lighting Up the Cold Night

The warm glow of the church window illuminating the icicles outside creates a wonderful image!

Thank you very much, Joe. I wish that the singing would come through, too.

Enjoying a short sojourn at Myrtle Beach, SC. Here's a shot from the first night (so far!).

The image really suffers from the compression, so I preferred IMGWIDE and suggest viewing the expanded version:

Here's mine for now:

Nice entries up to now! There's not much night left for this P52, at least not here in Europe. So, this is my contribution, shot yesterday evening, during the journey home from my family in law....

Hope I am not too late

[Voytech]

I suppose I can add my Christmas shot...

[Iris]

I think this one is supposed to be closed...
I will contact Tom!

[Rense]

I suppose I can add my Christmas shot...

Yes, you can! Although this topic should should have been closed for submission by now......

[Rense]

This one is closed.

I've sent Tom a PM with the question whether he is able to judge or not (he wrote he has a kidney stone problem). If he's not able, or if I did not receive an answer within one day, I'll ask someone else to judge.....
