Just a reminder challenge closing at midnight tonight.

The challenge is now closed, will give you my comments and results later today.

[Daisy M]

Here are my results and comments on each shot, done purely as an amateur and my opinions.

John Leah. Super moon.
Clarity on both the moon and the ship was outstanding, so sharp.

John Liddell. No grass cutting.
Cowslips one of my favourite flowers, clever skill popping the yellow, as you know not something I would do , but well executed.

David ( count). Morning Walk.
your yellow with the blue sky behind it shows it off well, but looks a bit soft.

Jock. Unidentified Flower.
wish I could get my yellow as clear and sharp as that, like that John.

Nigel. Yellow Tulip.
A very sharp tulip, but found the light background doesn’t show the flower at its best.

Chriss ( Stackman). Follow the sign.
when I looked on Flickr I got closer to the signs and found that it improved the shot, though liked how the path led you away.

Rose. Fishing Boat.
Two yellow elements in one shot, well done, slight tilt to the sea, but a well composed shot.

Ian. Castle Slide.
A well thought out shot, wouldn’t see me riding on it. Again a very sharp image.

Jim. Wasp.
What a pity it wasn’t facing towards you, focus good on the wing and body, bit soft around the head.

Tracy. Rose.
Only joined the forum this month and we will look forward to more wonderful images if they are like this. Pity you didn’t put it on via Flickr as I could not get a date of when you actually took the image. ( see my pms to you)

Brian. Keep Left.
Not sure if this was a political statement or not, but you sure have got to grips with the R6 . Great image.

Bo. Italian Garden.
lovely image, bit to much stonework and not enough yellow for the challenge for me though.




So my order is as follows.
3rd Chris’s ( Stackman)

2nd Tracy Rose.

1st Brian Keep Left.
