Welcome to the Neowin Monthly Photography Challenge!

This month's challenge closes on the 24th August.

The entered photos will be collected into a single thread with a poll, these will be voted on by everyone.

 

As last month's winner, abysal, has chosen this month's theme: "Reflection"

 

It can be interpreted in many ways, there isn't only one definition of reflection.

You sure were. I like that one. I like this theme. I have a bunch I could use already from the weekend, but I think I'll hold out for now.

Thanks :)

I can't believe we are pretty much half way through with no more entries. I suspect it being the summer may have something to do with it and a lot of people are on their holidays etc.

Just waiting still. I haven't processed any of the shots I took this weekend. There were a couple I wanted to see for entering. I hopefully won't forget this time.

Fine, but I've got 10 days to find something better, haha. I wanted to use my car but I haven't gotten anything that I really like yet. This one was cool though, caught a stream on the way down.

On the plus, I think my photography/post processing skills have increased quite a bit recently, so hopefully I start getting more quality shots. Still learning this camera.

Having a nice fancy camera certainly allows for a little more flexibility with somethings but you don't need it to take a great photo. 

 

 

How does one post a flicker link please?

When you post, there is a little tool for posting pic's as long as you have the URL to the picture itself.

Oh I see, sorry, didn't mean to think so little of you!

 

I see it's hosted on Flickr so if you go to your photo stream and select the image, it should open it to a more detailed view etc. Then if you right click you get options to view in a specific size, I pick Medium, from there then you can right click and should be able to get the Image URL.

 

Not sure if there is an easier way but that's how i have done it.

 

this is yours...

I'm going to try and upload mine through Picasa, see if that works, as I already have an account there.

The link I get from Google+ shows the picture but not the EXIF info. I have this link here for that, which goes to the folder.
