playground

[&Denekamp]

me, 17 jears old boy, spent some time at the playground again.
This time not with sand and buckets, but with my camera

This boy isisted on his picture being takes, and since you can't say no to a kid.. (witch is a stupid rule to begin with, since it only costs me extra film.. :meh: )

​

And here's a sweet little teddy, that reminded me of all the stuffed animals I used to have.. ahhww I never had a perambulator (sp? I looked that up in the dictionary, dunno if its correct :blushing though..:meh:

Oh, and AGAIN some selective colouring on this one..:blushing: I just can't stop doing that..

​

(again, the vignetting was due to a sunshade on my lens, of which I only afterwards noticed it showed in the pics)


And some flowers I came acros, hadn't brought my macrolens (who would bring a macrolens to a playground..?!) so I decided on some sort of overview of the flowers

​

(these are all scanned images, thus a bit blurry)


I hope you like, and I'd like to hear your comments on these

Nice group of pictures, the child on the swing would more than likely stand out a bit more with further blurring of the background. Ernie

thanks erniehatt, I've already blurred the background on the first a little. This was the first time I shot with a fully manual camera (Pentax MX) so I forgot to set the aperture wide open

Nice photo's ! I really like the first photo, because the background is fading... And the position of the camera is really nice!

The second photo gives an emptyness... But the colourfull bear makes it peacefull.

Thanks Fyza. For the second photo, the feel you described was almost exactly the feel I was going for so I think the message came across.

I know what you mean about not being able to say no to a kid and ... with the expression on his face, even if you wanted to, could you? Good work on all three. The selective colorings were done well too; not overly colored but enough to get the point across.
