Bi-weekly Photo Comp Week #8 - Poll

[TB]

Week #8's theme was landscapes. Which one is king of the hill?

I'll get my coat.

I will give this a try.

I will give this a try.

You can vote for your favorite for this week, of course, but if you'd like to actually submit a shot, you'll have to head over to week #9.

TB, is there a way you can put a blank line between each image in the poll? Sometimes they kind of blend into each other and it gets a touch confusing on the cropping and framing.

 

[TB]

Not that I'm aware of, no. All I could do is put an empty poll option between each but then we'd inevitably have people voting for... nothing.

It's because of my white sky.

Went for Cody's shot. Loads to catch the eye, and something a little different.

 

[Cale]

Went with Cody as well. How can you not?

 

[Blitz187]

Also voted for Azure's shot... Very nicely done! 👍

Because your shot is quite good.

Thanks everyone for the praise, and if you want a wallpaper size version, I can post up a link to a 1920x1080 version.

I went for homeforsummer's shot, for me it shows the scape of the land better than the others

The what? Never quite heard anyone say anything like that before, so a touch confused...

Well seeing as the theme was landscapes its not that hard to deduce.
But anyway I think it might be an English thing to phrase it like that, or more specifically a west-country thing.

Went with Cody's shot. Nicely done, even if the star trails are a bit longer* than I'd personally like. 👍

*or, alternatively, much longer would work, too, but that's just me.

How come some weeks we are able to see who's voted where but not always?

I went with Cody's shot too. One of those shots that grabs your attention.

It all depends on if I remember to check the box to make the votes public or not. I'm clearly not the definition of consistency.

I mostly just meant the term "scape" used like that. Landscapes in general are a very broad topic.

I didn't have the time to do a proper long exposure, nor was sure how the car lights would show up in such a long exposure. And 30 seconds was about as quick as I could go without dialing the ISO up too much. If I had a faster lens for this shot, I could have gotten away with a bit more, but alas those are expensive.

 

[TB]

Don't get me wrong - I'm by no means ragging on your shot. The dark areas are not under exposed and the lights aren't blown out, either, and the stars add that extra something to look at. From those perspectives, it's perfect. It's only when you look at the large version do you see the stars starting to trail that it becomes slightly distracting, but only slightly. 👍

Great shot, which is why I had you change it. You're welcome.

 

[TB]

I've already sent the PM but I'll make the congrats public.

Nicely done on the win, Az. Shoot me the next theme when you get it sorted.
