but more helpful than most of the rest of us! 😛

Nah, I have learnt the ladies must love dick in a box. Heck U-Man has even made it hands free and olavf has put air holes in his 😛

Wow! I feel I was way to serious for this contest!

[swampa]

Don’t run from this contest!

[swampa]

I can do it for you Orionid.

Are we not supposed to share these?

Nope, you have to bags them early! Just kidding, I’m sure there are going to be a lot of photos covering the same phrases, it will be interesting to see what people do to differentiate theirs from the others.

They will ring the winners on the 20th of August.

/Begins the sitting and waiting by the phone. 😛

Its looking like I may not have access to a computer for posting until thursday night so could I get someone to post these 3 entries for me.

I can, I don’t have any entries of my own this week so it shouldn’t be a problem (suffering a case of shutter-block at the moment!).

It is coming up as private when I try to look at them at the moment and it looks like the first URL has been truncated.

Yay!!

Well by share, if I win the popular choice vote (yeah right! :P) then I will make sure to visit everyone and buy them a beer (or drink of choice).

I can’t recommend a protective filter enough.

I have had a camera fall forward while on a tripod onto the lens only to have a slight dint on the filter instead of the lens and I have accidently knocked a lens out of a bag once for it to fall about half a metre, the lens cap was knocked off and only the filter was smashed when it landed on the second bounce (I was crying inside until I got home to discover it was just the filter – I thought I had done the inner glass as well)

The only downside I have seen is that occasionally it will create some extra ghosting.

Joining the you are doing fine crowd. I see no problems with your first two pictures, just the third picture is a bit dark and off kilter for my liking.

The other thing to remember is that some people will be voting for what is represented in the photo, not whether it is a good photo in these contests.

Also joining the play with the camera crowd. You will eventually come up with things that you like when taking photos (for me, large apertures or long exposures – also that the rule of thirds is stupid :P)

Shiny shiny contest link

Another welcome here.

If you are going to use a ring, go with #1. #2 looks slightly out of focus (not that I should be commenting on that after last week :D). Also the firepit photo url is the same as the hanging garden one.

My first photos were with a 2.1mp camera 😀 (be careful, this can become a very expensive hobby! After seeing how they compared to others I upgraded quickly afterwards!).

Some fabric I found with reflective silver dots all over it (can be seen on the chair here). So much fun to play with 😀
