Watching Grandpa pruning the trees.

Ten minutes later he was in the garden (supervised by me) with a pair of secateurs in his hands cutting up the twigs.

OK, here are the scores on the doors!

The winner of this memory card, and the previous memory card that I won is....

(drum roll please)

....Ash!




I love the fact that he went out to the garage to do one job....and took the camera with him to take pictures.....that, to me, is brilliant.

I am one who takes his camera everywhere, and this to me is a bit of an obsession. I often find myself taking pictures when I should be doing other things, so this is why the picture, and the story clinched it. Its a great shot as well, and looks almost de-saturated, except for the rev counter.

Nice one Ash, and have fun with your cards, and take up the batton to choose a subject for the next salon

Second place is: Pops, I always find the birdy shots inspirational!

In third is: Ekkl, a great story, and a beautiful photograph

Finally, a quick note to Gina.......I am sorry I couldnt let you get away with posting that shot without a comment !

Just what have I done wrong to be told off
craggy ole face......not at all.
......headmistress pose? definately!

Re: Fortnighly Salon Competition #35 - INSPIRATION

Wow wow wow wow been listening to kylie
You caught me offgaurd there, I really did'nt expect that

Ive looked at all the pictures and I think there all very good entries
any one could have won, I'm glad I went out to charge my bike now.

Ironically I was looking at some cards at focus, but they were a bit pricey so I did'nt get any, I always seem to be shooting in raw these days so the cards soon get eaten up in no time.

Thanks alot, still cant beleive it

I have an idea for the next theme already, I will let you no on friday, as I think Ive to post a taster.

cheers
Ash.
