As the runner up in last months competition, I'll kick things off in here with some I'm thinking about entering this month.

Taken inside a cave in Lanzarote:

Inside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Singapore:


All straight off the camera with no fiddling

Seeing as the weather is turning a little, some of you might like this months theme..

Inside

I think there is plenty of room for different ideas there. Could simply be a shot taken of a cosy indoor scene with the cold outside, or the interior of a car, or an introspective portrait or.. I think there are plenty of options.

• Judging will be a week early as I'm unavailable at the very end of the month. So closing date for entries is October 24th, winner will be announced October 25th.

• I'm happy if shots are photoshopped if this enhances the final image, but it certainly isn't required to make the cut. Indeed, poor photoshopping will mean the shot won't be considered.

• If you post a photoshopped photo, please post the original version and a summary of what you've done in the chat thread.

I like the idea of showing the unprocessed version of shots. Could be quite an eye opener sometimes.

I like that! Very M.C. Escher


(could perhaps benefit from a bit more sharpening or contrast?)

Just bumping this up because methinks it should be stickied along with the chat thread

My entry:

[rustybin]

One of my first efforts with a digital.

[fluffnik]

I might have a go at this comp...

This is a multi-story aquarium in a Berlin hotel atrium:

1


2


3


4


5



Mostly just cropped and scaled, except #2 which I faffed with a bit - contrast mostly.

I'm inclined to #5, but open to persuasion.

[chris.mapey]

As requested in the main thread, where I've posted this one



I have tweaked the contrast, saturation & levels in general.

Being pedantic though, none of the above was done in Photoshop, so I suppose I don't need to post that

Perhaps not quite what was expected but I took it from inside (sort, of I was on a balcony).

[cw42]

Inside the avenue of trees at the recent Chatsworth Rally Show:


Inside the cockpit of a classic Aston, again at Chatsworth House, 2 weeks earlier


Inside the tree installation at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park:


there again for inside the deer shelter:


Looking back through my photos, I've taken quite a few inside, those are my fave

and then I came to the shot I wanted to submit, and realised I've taken some INSIDE my car INSIDE the tunnel, and some OUTSIDE my car INSIDE the tunnel I think I prefer the first one , this is the second:
