*Gallery* & *Voting* November Photo Competition

[alvish]

Have a lot of respect for Beej... we don?t have many professional photographers / artists putting in their photos for this comp / public vote (from what I?ve seen there are a lot of pros on TF)... It seems a bit pretentious to not?? Either they don?t want to lose to amateurs or they?re scared to compete..

i'd obviously have more respect if he wasn't consistently beaten by said amateurs... :twisted:

That's why i have the respect.. he's been 2/3rd best from the start (with amazing photos) but 5 months in he still puts them in... haven't seen other "professional photographers" put theirs in for the TF voite...

What the fucks voite mean?? Geezus I was stinking drunk last night and can't remember this... 12.19pm Thai time that makes it 05.19am here... that's some of the blanks filled in at least :oops: Now to check the other forums....

And before any of the usual suspects would like to explore some of possible connotations of the topic and what it may inspire them to...just don't. :roll: :wink:

well done Kitschi guy - an excellent picture and deserved winner; was one of my 2 favourites so glad about that.

[SweetieBabie]

Well, that was my second favorite one . congratz Good job!

[babyoiy]

Katmandu Spices got my vote but for some reason I thought beej is the owner of "Observer of life".

[OutOfOrder]

Ugh! i was gonna vote today and was giving

it to Christmas Duck. Anyways, i kind of figured that was Pandorea's too 8)

[Karnie]

damn! i missed to vote!!!!! :cry:

[OutOfOrder]

oh, and i also liked the Observer of Life a fair lot .

[Deester]

One of the most exciting part for me is actually when you're telling the name of the person who own the picture.

At the beginning I wasn't sure if I should vote for the Heat one or the Water one. Then I got the impression of Bangkok street from the Heat one. Still think the Water one looks nice thou.

Good job, all of you!

[Stramash]

oh, and i also liked the Observer of Life a fair lot .

ty!!! only a shi**y little point and shoot too, admit to playing with levels on photoshop to get decent b/w image but just could not get rid of background noise.

have suggested an slr/p+s shoot split, but Jens is leaving it for debate...

Personally I think this month was one of best standards; I was chuffed with my pic then I saw others and went 'oh crap'.

well done everyone...

Katmandu Spices got my vote but for some reason I thought beej is the owner of "Observer of life".

I also liked Katmandu, wonder how it was taken; aperture, frame, exposure?

All the photos are well done and remarkable.

We have some real talent on this site, in several fields!

I voted for no.10 "water music". It looked like the colours had been superimposed on a black and white photo. Crisp too.

[OutOfOrder]

I?m impressed by your picture OoO. Was it taken by a D300?

i think it was D300....Otherwise D70... The colours were not manipulated... (but contrast was a little bit) just incase you're wondering... 8)

If you was an accountant would you like to do that in your spare time also?

:oops: :oops: Apologies.. after a few beers, whiskeys and wines I enjoy being a tosser... :oops: :oops:

I went for 8 due to the overall duality of composition balancing the shot quite well. Nature and humans, movement and stillness, proximity and distance.

I also went for it as I think it was taken in Penelokan north- east Bali?

Still amazed at this... yes it is North East Bali on the road down from Batur Temple..

Was taken with my 3.2mp brick (Sony DSCP52 Cyber-shot 3.2MP)

Well done to everyone who entered their work - great stuff and lots of fun. Good to see the criticism remained constructive throughout the voting.

I liked 'Water Music' (including the title) and 'Alone in the Dark..' with nods to 'Observer of Life' and 'Time' and 'Christmas Duck' had the authors name all over it - distinctive style. All the entries are worthy of praise so well done.

Glad people liked the photo. Thanks for kind words. Thankyou also to Hobbes for running the competition.
