P52-5-21: Subject — Still Life
Posted By: Tsukiouji, 05-19-2013, 02:54 PM

A timeless classic — still life.

(Photos for the Week #21 competition are to be taken between May 20, 2013 and May 26, 2013.)

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 52-5 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 non Pentax cameras are allowed.
Cameras may be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot, Medium Format, et cetera.
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 thread start date to listed closing date is acceptable.

Great Start Julie!!!



I have the honour of judging this week, thank you Tom! I had already started figuring out what I wanted to do for the 'Still Life' theme so went ahead with it today. This would have been my submission. Another take on the Jelly Bean






Okay everyone, get your thinking caps on

I can't win (my wife is the judge, she has something against nepotism, it has nothing to do with me being a sore loser) but I can still post an image.....
