The 52 Project - Discussion and banter goes here...

[Phil]

In school you always knew when a girl fancied you and was jealous of your girlfriend, she couldn't stop making fun of you. I rest my case!

[Korky]

Schools? Girls? In Yorkshire? Nah!

YORKSHIRE !!!!

But that's North of the Thames, where they still send missionaries, isn't it? Can't we make it somewhere safe, like Afghanistan?

You've got it completely wrong. The North sends missionaries often, South of Birmingham. Unfortunately, Southerners have this selective deafness and claim they just don't understand, tha knows.

Mitch has joined us on the 52 Project and has done a little catch-up. I just thought I'd give him the option as he wasn't around when we discussed.

Mitch - Please read the 'How it Works' thread and then post on Sunday/Monday each week.

Welcome!

I've deliberately tried something different for me this last week, and that's what I'm going to try to do, when I can, in this thread.

[Korky]

Some excellent images again for week two. Thanks everyone!

Highlight for me was Ryewolf's 'smew' - a bird I've never heard of and one which is confusing my auto-correct good and proper. A great shot!

Still Herr Kristof Lumix to arrive, but he'll be along presently.

I thought we had until the end of Monday! Anyway, I've posted mine now.  (The quote system is up the Swanee with a vengeance - needless to say, Brian had nothing to do with this post!)

[Korky]

Week 2 complete, finished, signed-off, accomplished, achieved, done and fizzin' dusted. Only 50 weeks to go! 

Expect a little challenge next week. An easy one!

Had a thought a couple of days ago........

Are the 52 Project photo threads a little sterile without comments? Would they benefit from a few comments and a bit of banter?

My original idea was to keep them tidy, but now I'm thinking they need to be livened up a tad.

Anyone?

Korky

[Mitch]

 

It's a tough one as too many comments will detract from the images, but think it would be nice if we could make at least one comment per image if wanted?

[Guest Judy]

Maybe comments after everyone has posted.

[Korky]

I quite like Judy's idea.

Anyone?

[Clicker]

I absolutely agree with Judy ... Otherwise it becomes just a Gallery possibly.........  Once the new week starts .. we could comment on the previous weeks entries if we want eh .. Just say the word ... You could add an " comments now invited " post when you do the reminder in the chat box each week ... Just say the word M'lud ... 

[Korky]

That's it, then - I'll do a 'comments now invited' in the chatbox once all the photos have been posted and we'll see how that works.

Perhaps it'll encourage comment from those not involved in the project.

Wonderbar!

[Guest Judy]

I would most likely have joined in, Korky, had it not been for builders and BB problems - maybe 32 weeks or something, if allowed?

[Clicker]

Flipping eck it's Sunday already... Just using my iPad to keep up whilst in the kitchen cooking ... Nipped out in between making the stuffing and  roasties to take a couple of pics of some very wet hellebores  .. Hopefully get one suitable for posting on the project 52 ...   Not stopped since breakfast today ... Phew ... 

[Guest Judy]

I had a little giggle half an hour ago, Korky. I saw your jpg challenge while I was looking through some old files on an external drive. Clicked on a jpg one to open it  in CS3 (poor me!) and it opened in  Camera Raw ver 4. It's never done that before with a jpg!

I think you must have some strange powers over the www

And in the topic title please for those of us who never ever use (or even SEE!) the chatbox.

[Guest Judy]

Specially for you Chris

Don't you ever go to the Forum page?

 

 

[Korky]

Chris

It's easier for you to turn on the Chatbox than it is for me to try and put something where you're sure to see it. 

Between thee and me, it always seems that no matter what I choose to do, there's always someone who's unhappy with it. Well, I'm unhappy about people being unhappy about bloody trivialities.

I'll put a reminder in the Chatbox each week.

Korky

 

[Guest Judy]

I'll remind Chris every week, Korky

[Phil]

I need to hold up my hands and admit to completely forgetting about the rules for this week, I have managed a few shots (between beating 7 bells out of the computer) but all shot in RAW, sorry 

2 crackers to get us started though

No it isn't. I use ONLY the 7-day stream (Judy's) to navigate TIPF since the software change. It's the only reliable thing. I never see the Home Page, and have never ever used the Shoutbox since I first registered.

Well ok, if I don't see the reminder, I don't see it.

I'm guessing you haven't seen my recent posting in the Staff Room?

[Kobione]

A very busy week last week, new (to us) car, 4 trips to Melbourne and two more to Bendigo, as well as my two days work, phew!!  Very limited time and opportunities, sorry that my only decent one was so close in subject matter to yours, Korky!
