I dont know what it is but I love fire escapes and metal staircases

Nice composition and I like the way the tree branch mirrors the diagonal of the rising stairs

Good B&W conversion

Day No. 29

Super skyline and nice reflection on the water. Really like the fact that you are in many ways dealing with the same colour (both sky and sea) but that within this the subtle tonal ranges means that there is still much to look at in the shot

50Day29: Rain Runner

Very nice shot and I really like the colour of the runners torso

I can remember a time when I was so keen on running I would have gone out in this sort of weather, I must be getting old now because when i see this all I think is maniac/oooo you want to be careful you dont catch a cold

The blur works really well with this shot

Day 29 - Phone

As previously mention this would have been nice in the street photography

I like the composition with the chap on the left running up a rule of third line and being counterbalanced by the bikes.

I'm also quite intrigued as to what kind of shop sells hardware, luggage and beauty products which seem quite a diverse range of things to stock (and to be honest doesnt really give you confidence in the quality of the product)

What a fantastic story

I love the fact that to your daughter that the blow out truely did seem like the top of the world and that her slight apprehension was replaced by a simple love of the place on your second visit

Truely a story that made me smile and a great picture capturing the speed and energy of youth

Wonderful

Day24 - Numerate Graffiti

I cant tell you what the equation relates to but the strange thing is that it is weirdly appealing visually (and I dont have a clue why) When I saw the thumbnail it really demanded to be opened

Cool shot

Before I read your comments I was going to say have you been on that firetrail again' lol

Another gorgeous picture and I really like the DOF. The border is tops, but I have to say I am not overly keen on the text (just a personal issue on descriptive text on shots)

Lovely image though

Holy Whistle

hahaha

Well once again I am given a reason why I love this challenge

Alicia, I love your new agedness (sometimes the phrase new agedness can be used as a disparaging term in the UK, but please believe me when i say in this case it is said with nothing but affection)

And then....And then.....I discover that you are a Morris Dancer!!!! OMG how my illusions are shattered ;-) I have to tell DPCers that dont know morris dancing that in england they are generally considered to be a bunch of very odd people who dress up in bizarre outfits and go round slapping themselves on the thighs and buttocks with either their hands or sticks with bells on.

The Morris Dancer can normally be identified by the fact that they are male with bushy beards (certainly I am not accusing Alicia of this), drink too much real ale and as a consequnce suffer from horrendous flatulence (in this instance having not meet Alicia I cannot make a judgement) and are the sort of people that you would feel very uneasy leaving small children around (definitely not true of Alicia)

I love the fact that you said 'You have to be a special kind of geek to love morris music - and I do.' because to say that means you are definitely not a geek (a non geeky morris dancer??? My world is being turned up side down) but a very cool person who knows what they like and embraces it (though it still does not me laughing at the idea of you doing the 'stripping the willow' dance or the 'green man' (scary character) dancer

Oh and as an aside....Cool whistle, I have not seen one like that before

Nice PP

The chair - well actually the throw on the chair makes me think of an old 1940's movie, with galmour and style

Cool sign...Idiot bloke

I have yet to discover the joys of shooting (or even how to shoot) in Raw. Very nicely composed and works well in the square crop
