Weekender II - My attempts

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Having just received my Tamron 90mm macro, I did the weekender just with this lense.

Time (and long Exposure - 6 seconds - you can see the second hand)

These things are growing over the fence from the next door neighbour. They are probably 1 metre long :shock: and would be 50cm in circumference at the bottom

If I cannot have the same photo in 2 categories, Following on from Big Red, I suppose I could offer this as Long Exposure :)

I really feel I nailed this shot :roll: The fence would have been there 20 years, so this nail has been exposed to the elements for a while.

Watch it with the puns.

The chronograph is excellent. Definitely showing the lens at what it does best.

I think those veges are gourds, but I could be wrong. Other than seeing one used as a prop on Monty Python's 'The Life of Brian.' I have never seen one in the flesh.
