Group One; Passion & Supernatural.
Group one had the themes Supernatural & Passion. Here are their photos for this week.

Arneldo// FAILED TO SEND EITHER IN

---------------------------------

Passion
Title:
Inspiration: I had a better idea but my model went to bed lmao..so I just used flamenco shoes to represant passionate dancing

Supernatural
Title:
Inspiration: The dictionary definition I found was, 'Unnatural and out of control of nature' which expains the roads/other man made shite, and when I think of supernatural, I think of eerie, ghosty shizz, which I think the misty shy shows. Not the best portrayal I know, but I like thisnpicture.

-------------------------------

Dezzy// FAILED TO SEND EITHER IN

--------------------------------

Jéssícá//
Passion
Title: Potential Rain
Inspiration: I honestly couldn't think of anything for this topic so I decided to just take a picture of a hobby that I love doing, which is origami. I used two of the simplest ones I can make, which are the Origami 3d star and the origami peace crane.

Supernatural
Title:
Inspiration: I also found this quite difficult until I was flicking through my pictures and I found this one from about two weeks ago, when I took a picture of my dog and cat there was like a white smoke in the picture and you can see the cat looking at it but there was nothing there.

-------------------------------

Patrick//
Passion
Title:
Inspiration: Video Games are my Passion!
.

Supernatural
Title:
Inspiration: Blue Bolt of light! What is it!

------------------------------------

Group Two; Passion & Fairytale.
Group two had the themes Fairytale & Passion. Here are their photos for this week.

CaraRawr//
Passion
Title: You are my passion
Inspiration: I took this photo today when I saw my friend drawing a picture for her boyfriend, which are her passions. She had 'i love you' written on her hand too, so I took this. :] I like it!

Fairytale
Title: Pop-up Dreamland
Inspiration: Yeah, I know this picture isn't very good. I found this old pop-up fairytale book in my cupboard and decided to take a photo of one of the scenes. It's horrible but whatever. =]

----------------------------
GypsyGoth//
Passion
Title: Bedtime Books
Inspiration: Hmm... I adore fantasy books, I guess it's escapism, anyway some of the stories I've read have touched my heart.

Fairytale
Title: Goldie Bear
Inspiration: I wanted to try and capture something almost magical.

--------------------------

MrGaryy// FAILED TO SEND IN EITHER PHOTO FOR THE SECOND WEEK RUNNING AND SO HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.

----------------------------
Nate//
Passion
Title: Pride
Inspiration: Was quite stumped for this so I though of what my passion is, and it's my football team. Here are the three different badges theyve had.

Fairytale
Title: Midnight
Inspiration: From the famous fairytale of Cinderella, she only had till midnight at the ball and the shoe represents the magic slipper..

-----------------------------------

PJ//
Passion
Title:Laptop
Inspiration: My passion is Computers so I took a photo of my laptop.

Fairytale
Title: Something I found randomly
Inspiration: [i]This was a really hard theme and I was going to take a photo of a witches’ hat but I found this luckily it’s complete violation but y’know it’s better than a photo of me in a mankini.

-----------------------------

Sorry I took so long. As I said, I had to type it out twice.

CaraRawr · 13-11-2009, 06:43 PM

I quite like your ones. There's a lovely naivety with the pic of the pop up book and I've always loved black and white photos although I might have suggested maybe putting in the head of the person who was drawing, with her/his face full of concentration. Just for compositional purposes and to give it a more personal feel. Still, they're both very nice. Think you've all done really well.

Yeah, I was just thinking it might have been difficult to get it all in one shot with enough definition to see everything. Should post them all up anyway cuz I think it was a lovely idea.

Princess · 13-11-2009, 06:44 PM

My favs are Claudia's and Nate's

Sticks · 13-11-2009, 07:14 PM

In my best Simon Cowell tradition

Arneldo

Failed to send in either

bronaaaaa

Passion: This looks to me like an advert for a shoe company, it does not speak to me of passion

Supernatural: Sorry, but weather was last week

Dezzy

Failed to send in either

Jéssícá

Passion: Hmm - not convinced. If you had done a unicorn that would have been more interesting an a Philip K Dick sense, but this does not do it for me.

Supernatural: Still not convinced

Patrick

Passion: Sorry but this comes across more like a cheap advert for a computer game that someone is trying to sell on E-Bay. Passion it speaks to me of - NOT

Supernatural: Interesting abstract art here, but what is supernatural here? It does remind me of a stencil my father used to have which was like a cartoon man in the moon, used by draughtsmen to draw curves.

CaraRawr

Passion: Closer I admit, and the interesting choice to go black and white does help. Even so it is not exactly setting the world on fire, but it seems nearer to the subject in my opinion than the others so far.

Fairy Tale: With that cat's head in the air, I can only assume it is from Alice in wonderland. Not strictly speaking a fairy tale from what I can remember. I would have done a black and white picture of the closed book for this one.

GypsyGoth

Passion: Hmm more like a a set of books just about to be carted off to the charity shop. It may be what you like to read, but I still do not feel passion from this.

Fairy Tale: More like Sir David Attenbrough on the cheap

MrGaryy - Eliminated

Nate

Passion: - Close but no cigar. If they had been Liverpool or at least Everton, possibly, given what the late Bill Shankly said about football.

Fairy Tale: This was clever conveying a famous fairy tale in still life, I was disappointed you did not get a pumpkin in, but then again there is the saying, Less is more.

PJ

Passion: Again taking a photo of something related to ones hobby does not for me ooze passion. As a shot of a keyboard it is a good one from the technical aspect, but passion - Nah!

Fairtale: More like an angel on acid

Sam! · 13-11-2009, 06:51 PM

I need votes guys

bronaaaa · 13-11-2009, 06:53 PM

So we have to vote who we want to go?

Patrick · 13-11-2009, 06:53 PM

Hate mine,

The rest are nice

So is everyone up for elemination ? Or is it just the 2 People that didnt send in their pictures??

LemonJam · 13-11-2009, 06:54 PM

Thank you very much.

Sam! · 13-11-2009, 06:55 PM

Brona, CaraRawr, Patrick, Nate, PJ, GypsyGoth & Jessica need to u2u/pm me either DEZZY or ARNELDO (your least favourite). The photographer with most votes will be eliminated.

GypsyGoth's vote is worth three points.

Sam! · 13-11-2009, 06:56 PM

I'll post my comments in a minute.

King Gizzard · 13-11-2009, 06:57 PM

Ahh there all really good. Probably the best standard and I thought this was gonna be a hard week!

They're all very good Nate. Well done, nothing to have been worrying about. It's lovely to see you all being creative and they all have that personal feel about them, which is the most important thing.
