Some really great photos there, Magic. It's reminding me to get that ND filter. Would have been great in Venice. Oh well....

[Goff]

that......is amazing.

Isn't it? It reminds me of the old swimming pool in Finglas before they poshed it all up into a leisure spa.

i think what i personally like about it is that the water looks stagnant but because of the formation of the leaves it looks as if its all in motion.

Thought they were pebbles.

Thanks lads. The pool was actually drained (does this mean I've cheated the "water" bit of the challenge?) and those are indeed leaves hanging around like autumn ne'er-do-wells.

Should be a print of it on sale in the GB Shaw next month if you really like it.

This is deadly.

Cheers Goff. I was pretty chuffed with the timing. Here's the bit before and a bit after. As you can see Joe was pretty chuffed too.

Ok so these photos aren't mine, but i thought some of you might be interested. My girlfriend is final year fine arts in galway, and she's doing a lot of stuff based on tears. She's collected shitloads of tears from people around ireland by sending them small vials and droppers which they use to catch their tears and send them back. She had an assessment yesterday and made an installation using about twelve hundred vials of diluted tears suspended from a sheet of metal with video projected through them. It was only amazin. You can see the photos at her flickr here.

EDIT: Ah balls, i can't post samples cos her flickr is protected. Go check them out at the following
