POTW 23rd April

Postby Glen on Wed Apr 23, 2008 7:55 pm

Picture of the Week this week is by Jonathan Dear of his twin sister. Read the full description in the thread, but this shot was done with a tilt shift lens. Who brings a t/s lens to a stroll around the city? Very innovative Jonathan, as was the whole post which highlights your style. Jonathan's blog is also well worth a view, with some great shots in it. Full thread here: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=32058


(Edit: Glen, hope you don't mind, I have inserted the image. Greg B 23/4/08 21:00)

Glen,

A truly great selection, and for all the right reasons.

Not that there are any wrong reasons. :)

Jonathan, congrats.

Congratulations on a fine photo but why do we no longer see the image in the POTW thread?
