Tried to take something new on the weekend but couldn't come up with anything really, so decided to revert to my back-up entry. Taken a few months ago whilst trying to look at Silverstone in a different manner.

Final Entry



25th March 2012
Canon EOS 60D
Silverstone, UK
 
Okay, so, third time lucky, nothing was turning out like It should in my head so I went back to some pics I took a week or two ago, and set the scene back-up in order to try and emphasize "Blue". Lot of effort, little reward.. but nevermind. I'd put fifty quid on it being purple.


FINAL ENTRY




Bombay Sapphire
Canon EOS-60D
8th May 2012
Full settings here, actual set-up here. No 'shopping - not even a crop.

I keep trying to find new ideas but I always fall back to my neighbours peacock.:grumpy:

Same thing happened to me, minus the peacock. I was sat around thinking of various ideas each becoming more and more far fetched and when I tried them out they didn't look half as good as i imagined. In the end I just went out for a drive, took my camera, and stumbled on quite a few things.

Go for a walk or a drive with your camera and you never know what you will see :)

Can I take this as a quote for my Sig. I understand it isn't very funny when we know the line of conversation. However take it out of context, I think it is quite hilarious.

Some very good entries. Good luck to all :)👍
 
Well, I'm travelling on business from tonight for 10 days, hopefully I'll still get the opportunity to vote.
 
^ You still have time to get something up though :D
 
^ The funny thing is I couldnt think of anything to begin with. The moment I started looking for "blue" in my surroundings, I saw it everywhere all of a sudden! :P
 
Haha, wish I could say that. The only blue things I see is a picture on my wall and my shoes... And theres a blue Ford parked in front of my house, but since it's not an RS, it's not interesting xD

Edit:
BLUE SUCKS! I did a 2 hour ride on my moped in search for something nice, didn't found anything. :grumpy:

Try the sky, it can be blue at times.

No water, sky, cars, food coloring, clothing, flowers, artwork, signs, etc? Where were you riding? The middle of nowhere? :lol:

Thanks! Working off my laptop instead of my Samsung monitor and.....yeah the colours aren't appearing on here like they should be lol. The blues are usually more vivid but I still stand by it like this. :)
 
The way I am seeing it on my Ultrasharps is a nice, dark and deep blue. It works with the subject and conveys a mood that fits.

Also, how many of us have 5D Mark II's in here? Seems like at least a few of us now :P
 
If my numbers are correct, you've got just over 30 minutes left to submit a shot, peoples! :D
 
Hopefully voters will also throw us lots of C & C.

Lock and load, boys and girls. Good luck, everybody!
