2021 Fundamental Colour Challenge

When I was a little kid, one of those Monday morning school things was “write about something you did at the weekend”. As it happens, we were always an active sort of family, and nearly always went out somewhere, even if only to Chobham Common for one of Dad”s model aircraft to not start.

So, that task should have been easy, but I always sat there with an empty head until inspiration finally struck at about 5 mins to go, leading to a mad scramble to scribble/draw something.

Clearly nothing has changed, as this challenge is proving - I think I’m limited to looking at other entries and thinking “why didn’t I think of that”!

I didn’t realise it was a submit everything you’ve got and hope for the best competition :joy:

Some fantastic entries though. Think I’ll stick to my one entry or I’d be here all day :joy:

Lol yeah they are :grinning: Originally planned to get it all from directly above like a massive green jigsaw puzzle but soon realised even at max altitude I could only get a small portion in shot, so decided to angle the shot towards the sun to get some light reflecting off the water

400 ft straight down shots every 2 seconds whilst flying and a massive stitch job at the end to get one hell of a puzzle pano :heart_eyes:

Thats a great idea :bulb: I might have to go back and try that sometime :+1:t2: I got there late yesterday and didn’t have much time as the light was fading fast and the massive rain clouds were moving in too :grimacing:
I was well organised as ever :joy:

  • Where an entrant submits more than one entry, only their highest scoring entry will progress and be considered to determine final positions in the challenge…
    So more than one is fundamentally OK i think?:crossed_fingers:t3:

Yep, just spotted my mistake with that. Is it OK to go back and send them as separate posts?
