Chat; PICTURE SOUND - W/E competition 16th to 19th Dec 2010

''Feel the Sound'' - Lets feel the wave or vibration as you make your picture really sing out with distinctive / creative Sound! (not digital noise)

Loud or soft, light or heavy; just rock or gently sway into a shot, so that we can hear the sound with our eyes!

This weeks challenge is to

Produce an action and or atmospheric photograph / image, depicting Sound, in a way that expresses what the sound is really like; whether a full orchestra, tin drum, or a humble Bumble Bee in the garden (for those with the warmer climates) or simply a raging waterfall.

Go for a single shot. Or let yourself go with some creative editing; with a composite image (provided all added elements, textures etc., are from photographs taken during the Friday to Sunday time slot). The choice is yours.

Above all have fun.

As a one off; For those partying or bell ringing etc., on Thursday - you will be pleased to note photographs taken on the 16th are eligible

Well there you go - Silence is Golden - Come Feel the Noise - The shot can be quite quiet or crash bang! - The idea being to; use movement (slow shutter perhaps?) , point of view (perspective) and or colour (mono tones if you like)to provide some sense of the physical sound; if that makes sense.

The hardest bit is the choice of subject/s and a bit of trial an error experimentation (unless you are lucky to capture a bird beak wide in song) etc., until you get the shot you feel does the job for you. Hence the additional day to play and perfect your entry.

Happy shooting

Just a quicky - I've just spoken to Paul(jinky). He's out of hospital now after a bit of a delay and taking it easy for the next few weeks - so he'll be waited on hand and foot all over Christmas and should be back with us full on in the new year.

Now what to do for this challenge?

Cool shot Mark. Would be nice to have seen all the toes and tip of the tail - Long lenses are useful for undisturbed birdie shots

Just posted my first ever - light hearted - entry in the W/E Comp. Haven't quite worked out what else is expected now, so I'd better do some homework/reading up. Voting on a different thread, I believe, once there are more pictures.
Can you vote for more than one photograph? Or is that considered 'not done' as only one can be the best?
