  • Reflections from a Factory Floor

    Hi All,

    Just got this shot today. had to leave the site in a hurry as a few Pikeys were stealing I think cooper.

    Anyways this is a Factory floor at Hoover.. Love the reflections and the wideness of the shot.



    Cheers

    Garrie,

    What a wonderful image, out of interest what lens did you use for this outstanding shot?

    Superb work

      Hi Garrie,

      Absolutely love it, especially the monotone feel with muted colours and the way your composition has used the reflections to create symmertry and arrange order out of chaos.

      If this was my shot without doubt I'd be entering it in the current Amatuer Photographer "Structure" Competition.

      I wish I had half your vision and technical ability in this type of situation.

      Nice one!
      John

        Wow! That's a superb shot. The reflections and the complex lattice of beams etc are outstanding. John is right - bung it in to AP!

            This is reminicent of "Hand Coloured" prints of the 20's & 30's

            Brilliant effect and a good picture to use the technique on.

            As always something that is pushing the techniques to great effect

              Excellent shot and well spotted.
              It amazes me how the most unpromising places can produce the most interesting shots.
              A very good seeing eye.

                  You can never be quite sure what will impress the judges, of course, but for what it's worth I think this one is in with a good chance of making the top three and I will be more than a little surprised if it doesn't at least get placed.

                  If it was my shot I'd be whooping around the room in triumph and delight.

                  Wishing you the very best of luck,

                  John

                      Hi Garrie

                      In my opinion this one is your best yet

                      All the best with your submission to AP.

                        An extremely complex shot and very well worked.

                          Billiant to catch the reflections so well. It takes a few looks before you realise you're not looking down into a lattice!

                          Good luck with AP, and I'm glad the pikeys didn't decide to go into cameras as a sideline!

                            Garrie, I just love this shot - the muted colours, the reflections, beautifully exposed, you name it I love it about this image!

                            Well done - and good luck in the competition!
