my interpretation of "caste" would be..daylight expousre + flourenscent + tad of tungsten= touch of the greeenies.

Just took it on a walk home from work one winter's evening, it's on the South Bank. I used a digital camera, an Olympus Mu, then tidied it up in Photoshop with some cropping, auto levels and a teeny bit of unsharp mask to give it a little definition. It was pretty green already, but I gave it a little 5% of green to give it the final touch and make it look as best it could, as close to the original as possible.

Another nice shot - you're doing well on this one mate.

 

[Soreenkid]

Thank you

I don't have my own camera anymore - i just use work's.
Because of that I think I`m taking more time when squaring up; as I want it to be decent... but I also know the camera has to be returned shortly.

that is more leisure than work.

The domestic appliances guy has a slacker cousin in Bejing:
Forbidden City security guard

(Taken with a disposable camera, lots of work done to scan: levels, cloning out dust and marks, sharpening...)

on_the_job I was soooooooooooo waiting for this shot...as I took it someone fell into me...hence the slight blur/shake... that person bounced and glanced off me and fell over complaining at me for not getting out of the way...*paparazzi mode!

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Pack it in please. This isn't P&P.

 

[editor]

cough_see your shitty_fkkd_up pickee .fuck off twat.... twat...fuck off twat!

This is unacceptable abuse for this forum. Kindly desist.

on_the_job

I like this shot because at first glance I only saw the wedding people. It's the context of this competition's theme that draws the main attention to the photographer and makes this an interesting pic.

Entry 2: Walk This Way

Great shot! At first I thought it needed cropping, but on reflection the extra space makes him look particularly lonely and bored. Also the baby ad on the right is a fun detail.

I was toying with going to Oxford Street to snap the Golf Sale man for this comp. Seem to remember the editor has some shots of him as well.

i wasn't spiritualised but everything else is true - you need a geordie accent, mate. You could call your own mum a cunt, and she'd just pinch your cheeks and call you a cheeky northern monkey
