#167 Gold
#167 Gold
Struggling for an idea, but the wife just suggested 'Gold'. Not a bad suggestion I think! (hope she's not hinting for a ring again ). OK, so anything gold people, jewellery, sunset, teeth you get the picture (literally).
Competition ends Sunday 8th May.
All the best,
Andy.

Managed to submit my Golden Man - I will be languishing on a Golden Beach when this is judged!

Re: #167 Gold
OK judging time then. Sad to see only 4 entries this time, many thanks those who did enter though.
Janice - Golden Man.
Nice warm golden feel to this portrait of sorts. The main gripe I have is that it's an eyeles statue, so you can't engage with it in any way and it therefore comes across as lifeless. Think the Gormley's work best within a scene. Sorry Janice.
Stopher - Jammy Gold.
Fits the bill this, again its got a lovely golden warm feel to it. The subject is dynamically lit and photographed - makes me want to go on holiday!
Mel - Golden Gate.
The gold is rendered very well and certainly fits the brief. Maybe it's not quite engaging enough to be in the running though - more of a study than an open competition type image.
Mike - All That Glisters.
If only indeed, if handbags came with money then my wife can gladly buy more!
Anyway, this is a very nicely shot still life image - no distracting bright highlights or anything. I like the message it's conveyin and it reminds me of a treasure chest. Criticism, the hand bag looks a bit lonely, maybe a gold credit card could have been added to the set-up or a golden envelope.

Re: #167 Gold
Sorry I didn't enter this time Andy. I was going to, but became absorbed in doing the ADAPS Yearbook and missed the deadline. Will do better!
Congrats to our winners, what's next Stopher?

No problem mate, top image!
Off to Croatia in June for a week - hope I get some good shots when I'm there (in between all the drinking! ).
