****SEPTEMBER COMPETITION**** (CHAT)

[CY88]

Feeling very lucky to be here again

This month I thought I might invite something a little different? :fingers crossed:

6.00AM

This topic should hopefully once again be broad enough to meet everyone's tastes .... but there is a twist. What I would really like everyone to try to do (and the theme that will bind the pictures together) is to take a shot between 6 and 7.30 in the morning.

Its normally a time of day for the seriously keen, because (as is always said) the early bird catches the worm. Clear september mornings are a great time of year to be out and about. However, if you don't have the time (or inclination) to be wandering the countryside at that time of day, you might alternatively capture an image of the tedious commute, the school run prep, the milkman, or the scene of a "morning after"!

I have no problem with entrants using archive images not taken this month.

What I'm looking for is the essence of an early morning shot!

Good luck!

This was taken at 05.59... does that count?

[CY88]

Well I might have guessed you'd be one up at that time of day! That's the spirit!

Earlier shots are accepted, naturally.

[Mrs Fish]

Well, there's the winner

[Marcellus]

is that 06:00 GMT??

[Mrs Fish]

This was taken at 7:48am during the winter months... too late?

[Marcellus]

and this one at 06:49 CET!!

[CY88]

OK, ok! Time of photo should be the time in the zone where its taken

And I'm not too fussed about exactitudes, like I said...... we're aiming for "early morning". I won't be scrutinising the exif data.

ETA: Just get up early you lazy barstewards

Don't be silly that's just a myth spread around by pseudo-country types. There's not really any such time!!

[Yellabelly]

I'm thinking low speed controlled drift which could easily be seen to look unintentional should any civilians be around..

[neil_bolton]

I'd go with this, only I checked the EXIF data and it seems it was 9:01

[neil_bolton]

Does it have to be that time in the particular time zone you're in?
