October 2016 ... "OLD"

"OLD" Any photo that contains "OLD". This can be a relative term. If you are 25 years old then 40 may be old, but if you are 75 years old then nothing under 150 would be considered old. :rolleyes: It can be people, things, nature, anything... just old.

HOW you create it is up to you. The idea is to challenge you to think outside of the box. Be creative and artistic for this one. Set it up, stage it, enhance it in post processing, or just get lucky. Your creativity is limited only by your imagination.


There ya go, let's get shooting! CREATIVITY/TECHNIQUE rules in this challenge, but there are a few guidelines:

1. Any photo submitted for a monthly assignment must be taken using a Nikon Camera!

2. All submissions must be taken during the month specified in the assignment thread and taken by YOU! (Please insure that EXIF is either posted with the photo or if it gets messed up, hold yourself to the honor system and add the minimum Exif data of the Camera used and the date the photo was taken to your post)

2. Obviously, for this challenge, your photo must contain something with "OLD." Other than that, it's all up to your interpretation of the theme. Any photo will be accepted, SOOC or edited, doesn't matter.

3. Photos must be posted in this thread to be considered. Links to photos will not be considered an entry (In other words, no Flikr or similar links)

4. Only THREE entries per member for each assignment. Please post entries separately (1 photo per post) and number the entry.

5. Entries will be judged by the number of likes received.

6. The top 5 shots will be displayed in a separate thread, and will be displayed in no particular order.

7. This is intended to be a FUN challenge. No critiques unless specifically asked. Also, please limit posts to just photos and brief descriptions/titles. Any comments/discussion should occur elsewhere, PLEASE.

As listed in other challenges, please note: NO CASH OR PRIZES will be awarded for this Monthly Assignment.

HAVE FUN, can't wait to see the results!

Entry #1

This is the result of playing around with a little bit of flash photography. I am trying to learn how to set and use off camera flash.

I'm not sure if you would call this "OLD" or not. If you do, then I guess I am also old because it was made between 1948 & 1953 (So was I. Ha!). It is a McCoy "Hobbie Horse" Cookie Jar that has been in my house my entire life. Sometimes it even had cookies in it. :cheerful:

Entry #2

Another attempt at playing with the "Off Camera" flash.

This is a Vegetable Peeler. The patent was applied for October 6, 1902 and was granted February 9, 1904.
I found an advertisement in a 1904 magazine for this paring knife.

This past weekend I attended a "Edwardian Social" complete with vintage cars and period costumes. _AAA9381 - Version 2.jpg
The car's name is Fred. I did not catch the lady's name.
