Weekly Photo Contest: Golden Hour (October 10 - 17, 2020)

[koolmagicguy]

@koolmagicguy - Lovely colors, bringing the gold in golden hour but up in the sky. I like how the perspective is balanced and also the fact that some people do look up, marvel and capture. Is this SOOC? I don’t use iPhones so don’t know; I feel the HDR look is a tad over the top for my taste - fine except for the deeper patch of blue at the top right. Still enjoyable though!

I hit auto on the stock photos app but that's it.

Sorry to not have checked in earlier. Congrats to podium winners and everyone that entered a pic - and thanks to Ukiyo Evenings for running this weeks' competition and thoughtful comments! I should have the next competition/contest up later today.

What a great competition! Congratulations to the winners and to everyone—what a lovely set of photos. Congratulations to @Ukiyo Evenings for such a good write up, can't believe it's your first one!

Second place still comes with some risk. As Clix Pix said, 3rd is the sweet spot.

I aim for the penultimate place.

I aim for the penultimate place.

You're living dangerously.

Weekly Photo Contest Challenge: B&W (October 21 - 28, 2020)

Let's see some black and white/monochrome pics. Subjects that feature interesting textures, lighting and strong composition work well with the inherent abstraction of black and white photography. Have fun with this one and channel your inner black & white photog :) Entries should be submitted...

I'm sure my Grandma had a saying, something about being a glutton for punishment haha!🤣

Oh, boy, a B&W competition!! I don't do a lot of B&W but occasionally shoot with it in mind, and sometimes when I am reviewing my images in the post-processing phase, I will look at something and think, "oh, yeah, this one is a prime candidate for B&W"". Been kind of busy and distracted today but will sort around through my files later....
