POTM [10/07] Conkers

When I think of Autumn, it brings back memories of the times I missed other peoples conkers and ended up smashing mine into their hand

 

i kinda like this although i think it might be better if there was less aka just the one conker.

 

I originally shot it with the single, stringed conker, but it looked a bit bare, tbh. I don't have a macro lens unfortunately and the photo above is the limit of the autofocus range, although I could zoom in a bit further I didn't think the sole conker had enough about it. With the additional conkers, it adds something rather than takes away from the photo, imo.

 

you get my vote just for subject matter....

none of those photochopped artificially coloured leaves for you sir!

 

Balls, just noticed, I put the wrong tag on. It should have the potm tag instead of photos. I'm not sure if it can be changed, I can't seem to find a way to do it.

btw, thanks fathazza! After looking through (admittedly good) photos of trees/leaves/sun hitting leaves photos I thought I'd try something a bit different

Thankyou mod for changing the tag

 

Press 'Edit' then "Go Advanced" and select the correct tag beneath the text box
