Dave...
I have created and album
http://www.potofgrass.com/gallery/EOI

Log in with your normal comp log in and you should have admin rights over the album...

Try uploading photos and playing with album properties...

And then play with the permissions to get a feel for it, and you can then see how the software can fit into your idea....

thanks Scott. I'm at work at the moment, so I'll have a play with it over the next few days and see what happens.

I'll try not to ask you too many questions :wink:

Sorry Radar.

I had to split it quickly as I had to be off to meet with some people and this thread disturbance had come up that needed dealing with.

I did it fairly quickly.

If it's any consolation... we know that you approve of it and love you more. :oops: :lol:

Good idea Dave and I hope it gets off the ground so I can have a crack at it.

And, for the record, I couldn't meter a scene just by looking at it if my life depended on it, so I guess I'll have a pretty pathetic entry! Ah well, you guys'll get something to laugh at and that can't be bad thing.

thanks Simon. Scott has very kindly setup a play area on his challenge website for me to host this exercise.

I will work on the idea more and will be sure to post the exercise at an appropriate time.

For now, I don't want to divert attention away from Challenge 8, so it may be prudent to hold this in the wings until Challenge 8 has concluded, or is at least well underway.

This, however, gives you plenty of time to get out there and practice taking "just one shot". As this is not a challenge, and will have no prizes, I hope to see quite a number of submissions - especially from the mods and "Site Owner" :wink:

Happy practising....

Look forward to it Dave and I think that's great to keep it separate from "Opposites". Not only to focus attention on the individual exercises but also to give those who normally have to abstain from these projects a chance to enter.

Good work Mr Aussie.

You know, I shoot like this quite often so this'll be fun for me to see what people come up with. :lol:
