Really Rojin lol

Got an idea for this months theme, going to my mate studio tonight.......

Rojin · 30 Mar 2011 at 16:16

Well I could guess the weed, but didn't have a clue what all the other stuff was.

SteveOBHave · 30 Mar 2011 at 21:19

Hopefully not too vague this time - I even highlighted the vices for you judges!!!

UberTiger · 30 Mar 2011 at 21:44

Love it Steve!

Mr Jones · 30 Mar 2011 at 21:54

Derek W · 30 Mar 2011 at 22:01

SteveOBHave · 30 Mar 2011 at 22:06

Great entries so far.... Hoping to get mine done tomorrow, but it's been a tough one I have to say.

Nice collection of shoes Wedge.

Ichabod's away for a few days, but I'll be closing the entries thread tonight as usual. You snooze, you lose!

Get those last-minute entries in!

@ Steve. Dunno, it's still pretty subtle :eek:

andy - you havent whitened the whole background, on my monitor i see a grey halo.... 10 mins work and it will be great - nice clean shot.

Hmm is that around the bra/bottle? Not seeing it on both monitors here (they are meant to be calibrated).

Will revisit now, thanks for the warning.

EDIT: Slight adjustments made, hard to tell what is haloing and what is just the shadow caused by the objects in shoot. Now gone snow blind from stairing at all that white for so long.

SteveOBHave · 31 Mar 2011 at 20:32

Heh - there is a lot of subjects on white this round... even chicky in her undies on white

UberTiger · 31 Mar 2011 at 21:36

Just got mine in, it's supposed to be a snapshot through the eyes of someone who has become a 'Victim of his Vice' and how it's destroying his life.

Not bad - I think if you'd folded the paper so it had creases and perhaps scattered some ash/stuff on it to dirty it up a little it might've been a little more convincing. Great idea though!

Very good point about the paper, I think you're right, if it looked a little more ruffed up it would be good or even just tri-folded after coming out of envelope now that I think about it. TBH I should have just not bothered to clean my desk before setting up for the shot as then it couldn't have looked more authentic.

I've got to say, after scrolling through all the pics again your one keeps jumping out at me Wedge, so colourful

Adamau5, I've had lots of complimentary comments from people coming into my room after setting yours as my background wallpaper this week too, they've become a very popular set of legs in the house, lol.
