Read the post doofus

As I said. The camera was never date set. It belonged to Mrs Sted.

A birthday cake I made for our 5 year old Goddaughter

Wow, nice job AKNel1!

This is an album picture from about 3 months ago... it's my son with one of his favourite food stuffs - Cherry Tomatoes.

I call this one "The modern hunter gatherer's delight"

(p.s. amazing cake AK)

Has this competition come to an early death?

Sorry mate. People stopped posting so I thought there was little interest.

Tell you what. I'm going to judge this one after dinner and then set up another.

Anyone want to volunteer a category?

[Surprised]

Just needs a bump from time to time to keep it current

Ok. First prize goes to the Nuthatch by Spencer4. Taken with a 200mm lens, no tripod at an aperture of about 7 judging by the bokeh.





2nd place goes to Moist von Lipwig’s composition of a beer festival. Very close to most of our hearts and the converging lines just draw you in.








Third place goes to Ironfist for his work entitled ‘excessive’. Don’t know why, but I like to look at this. His other picture of his son might have been up there but was too damn cute.




AKNel1 is a fine cake maker but his photo of such was off centre and lacking in contrast, focus and skill.

Wilberts price reduction was clever but would have been better if he’d gone back an hour later and got it for a quid.

Murf’s entry was rather like his TFF teams. An afterthought without imagination or effort.

My entries were obviously the best but I’m magnanimous as a judge.

Any suggestions on this week's comp?

Superb picture. A very deserving winner.

iPhone pics?

Ok. I'm good with that. Subject matter?

(PS...I've never had a mobile, but Mrs Sted has)

[Spencer4]

I'd like to thank my parents, friends and anyone else who hates me!

400m, hand held, f5.6 (close)

I thought justbtaken with a mobile? Could be anything?

Nah. People will just upload their best ever photo.

Like a big fish glowing in the reflection of a bald bonce.

We need to get people out there snapping.

How about a sporting scene? (apart from fishing)
Or a Tree?
Or a self portrait. Pouting. Like them 'my ex girlfriend' pics (maybe not)
Or a night time shot (very difficult on a mobile I would think)

[Surprised]

How about transport?
It can be pic of train, bus, car, bike etc

Transport sounds good.

I'll set up a thread.

Orange Peel

Is that the man with the 10 stone bollocks?

That's harsh. Not on my TFF teams obviously but harsh to be called an afterthought when it was the first entry and taken especially for the competition. It didn't take much imagination admittedly but deserves special praise as it was snapped and uploaded within about 30 seconds of reading about the comp.
