I took this photo earlier, got the idea out of a magazine and thought  i would give it a go.

These are two fun ones I took today of my sons. They where playing on one of those projectors the beams onto the floor and has a sensor so this one was a fish projection and the fish ran away when they went onto it.  Aaron the youngest one loved it.

and

A wing and a Prayer.

I wanted  a shot of a bird flying towards me with its wings out. I put some food down and this was the first to arrive. The rest of the shots became a little rushed and well, just all wrong.

Great shots posted all.

One from yesterday from the fair at Sandwell Valley Park.

A Study in Terror?

Took this while bimbling round Clumber Park today. Trying to get a rough, dirty, gritty look using ACR. Only bit done in Photoshop is the border.

Nice shot Oldboy, I was at the Sandwell Show yesterday as well.

One of these days we will bump into one another, I'm easy to recognise as I'm the only guy with a Oly camera.

Will post a couple when I download them after tea.

Paul - you're kidding right? You can't just bump into OldBoy - well unless you're blind and using a white cane of course, but in this case you wouldn't be a photographer. No - you'll see him a mile off resembling that chap Quosi lugging half a ton of Nokia gear around. In fact he'll probably poke you in the eye with one of his super zooms long before the camera itself appears over the horizon. Don't for goodness sake ask him to 'show you his' because apart from the liklihood of being arrested you'll never get away.

Hi Natasha

Please don't take this as a negative comment because it's not meant to be, I fully appreciate how it feels to achieve something a magazine is trying to get you to do - because I'm a beginner, I don't understand what the magazine was aiming to get you to achieve, so I can't really comment on whether it's good or not so good but the thing I was immediately drawn to was the blemish/shadow on the top banana near the stalk end. (left-hand side).  Maybe the overall impact could be improved if this was removed.  Just a suggestion, please feel free to ignore me.

Hello......No i dont take the comment negative. I except all comments if it makes be better. lol.

I must admit i didnt even realize the blemish was there until after i posted it and thought "Oh". So yes i do agree with you. I did atempt to try and clone it out afterwards, but that didnt really work, as i have just brought new software and i'm still getting used to the different settings.

Thank you, Natasha.

Thanks for the comment Crafty, I only went there about 18:30 when it was almost over. When I took the shots these were the only people on the ride and it closed afterwards.
