Reflections on Littlewick Green

Posted by CElliottUK (Reading, United Kingdom) on 1 September 2011 in Transportation and Portfolio.

A short series taken at a local county fair.
I've tried really hard to keep myself out of the shots...

Panasonic DMC-TZ20 1/800 second F/5.1 ISO 100 113 mm (35mm equiv.)

AM3 get-together!

It''s on Saturday 25th May, in the historic town of York.

FINAL UPDATE
Less than 2 Weeks to go. We are meeting at 10AM on Saturday in the reception area of the Guy Fawkes Inn, High Petergate, YO1 7HP - see you there!

Don't forget the competition - take a shot which...

Which is least likely to be awarded an Aminus3 Spotlight
Has the most number of photographers in it
At 11:14 and 2:22
That sums up "Tourist rubbish"
That sums up the beauty of York
The Grand ol' Duke of York

Jason Politte from Conway, AR, United States

Very nice Chris - yes, it is difficult to keep yourself out of these types of shots isn't it? You really have to check the whole frame before taking the shot. You certainly did well here.

I wish, worked on a project last year where an image , not as good as this, was used.

As opposed to Camberwick Green?
I can see a mini celiotec in a green jacket!

1 Sep 2011 5:14pm

@The Mouse: Nope! Blue short sleeved shirt and jeans is what you are looking for..... Out of the 5 shots in the series, I reckon there's only 1 where I appear

franz from Baden, Austria

wow, this is great! reminds me of the flowing shapes of one of the "terminators"!

1 Sep 2011 8:23pm

@franz: Haha-that was the original idea that I had in mind for this shot! To make it work, I would have to also illuminate the emblem from below to get rid of the dark areas. A project for the future
