There are more types of energy than heat and electricty.

I like cars so I may redo mine and do something with kinetic energy but i'm in fear that anything I do will go over the judge's heads

The theme sounded good apon first read, but all month i have been struggling and still cant think of anything better to do.

Although mostly this is down to my lack of imagination and skill

famas · 19 Oct 2009 at 21:22

i've got an idea thats gonna go way over every ones heads.

Phate · 19 Oct 2009 at 21:36

Love that place. Need to go back there.

Saw this competition and thought I had an idea so I'd have a go. Predictably my "idea" didn't turn out anything like what I had imagined. After an hour trying to get a pic of a powerball I gave up as my wrist just couldn't take any more! Ho hum.

Yeah it is

cool place. I didn't expect them to be so massive but they're huge.

OMFG! I took a pic of a powerball as well

. Mine didn't turn out anywhere near as good as yours though. Nice job.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

syke · 23 Oct 2009 at 20:06

Trying to think of another idea, still not 100% on mine

ichabod crane · 23 Oct 2009 at 20:08

Nice to see an entry Fstop11 been a while!

Quick question, if i post some pictures up for C&C i know that if judges comment on them then they cannot be entered into the competition. What happens if the subject doesnt change but the composure does, IE the shot i posted for C&C was shot at night time and then i submitted the same subject just at day time?

It seemed like a good idea at the time, even tried both hands for a steady shot at one point! I was "that" close to employing a g-clamp! Still can't beat 11190 rpm either...

Freaky pic!:

Yeah Jacob was talking to me about it and as I was explaining something I just took the image so I thought I might as well put it in.

Yeah they really are dominating structures which are so much more powerful than you think. I was stood directly under ones blade shooting up and I had to say it was really daunting. The noise was really something.

Derek W · 23 Oct 2009 at 23:51

I've thought outside the box slightly and its subject to change as well

providing the judges dont make a comment on your photos then you can enter anything you wish. or so I'm led to believe anyway so regardless of changing subject matter, or tweaking an original subject so long as it hasn't been commented on by 'the powers that be' then you'll be ok
