Photo two would have been made much better if it was reflect-o-porn.

3 for me. I'm surprised there weren't more entries for this one actually as I figured the subject would've seen some creative pics. I couldn't think of anything myself besides being tempted to rig up some kind of Enter the Dragon thing with loads of mirrors and perhaps impaling Beaker on one of them.

My idea was going to be a "looking in mirror and seeing an evil version of yourself" sort of idea, but I couldn't find my camera. Had the location all set up though.

I had 2 but I forgot to edit them down to size before it was too late.

Photo 1 looks like it should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise.

I could be wrong, but I think Gallery on the eggwan site will do this for you anyway - not sure if it'll spit it's dummy out if you try and upload a 20mb file however.

Both parts of this are correct. There is a cap to the upload, 12Mb if memory serves, and it does resize down to sensible resolutions.

I think you've quoted the wrong person, unless your gallery actually has magical (and disturbing) photo-taking properties.

Number one: Nice idea, feels a bit bland though.

Number two: Love the way the couple are framed in the baubles and the lighting and the way the baubles are in sharp focus but their reflections aren't.

Number three: Seems like a nicely taken picture (for what I'd know), but nothing seems to be happening in it, there's no 'life' to it if that makes sence, I do still like it though.

On this basis, number two got my vote.

Are we still having another one? Is everything ok meems?

They look ghostly though! I would liked to have just seen the lens and what's reflectd in it with the rest of the camera cropped out, just to see how it looks and to make out some more of the reflection, it's always interesting to notice new things in a picture, photograph or otherwise.

Well, number two was the winner on this one - well done people. You can now reveal yourselves! :)

I think we would have known that was yours, still a lovely shot though. :)

Is there a reason why people have stopped entering? Three is a pretty poor turn out really.

Just ran out of time to get the shot I wanted.

TBH, I think like the *scum games, it needs a break for a couple of weeks.

Well they run for a fortnight, I'm not sure how long people realisticly need to take a photograph. If we give it a two week break I'm not sure what difference it would make really, that would just be the equivalent of someone entering one of the two a month, and last fornight's didn't have lots of entries either. (I'm not saying you're wrong, just my countering points of view).

Are people just bored of it now? Do they want it to be more technical/professional/more scope on the theme? Talk to me peeps!

I think I *may* know where it is...it involves a ladder as I think I got Richard to put a bag of randomness in the attic for me a week or so ago as I have a fear of the attic and I think I may have been a twat and stuffed it in there-ooops >.<

Um...I may give Rich a call,lol.
