Filter Free Friday (10/8/2012)

It's Friday right now - at least in Kiritimati! You know what that means. It's time to post up your best shots in their naked, unfiltered glory!

So, no filters. No editing (except cropping and rotating). No fancy effects, colour tweaks, "film modes" or any of the rest - get back to the core and give you basic photography skills a good workout! Black and white is OK, but only if it's a basic black and white mode (many of the apps do lots of image tweaking too, which means it's using a filter).

Rules in brief: post up to 3 photos you've taken at any point in the last week. They have to be shown in their original unfiltered, unprocessed, naked glory. You can crop + rotate though.

Rules:

1: Take photos at any time during the week, post them up on friday*.

2: Post 3 photos max please! Pick your best or the ones you want feedback on.

3: Use any app you want, but turn the filters off**.

4: The winner will be picked on Saturday by counting likes.

5. Use the Like button as your vote. Like only the pictures you think are really good!

6. If you don't like a picture give constructive feedback - tell the author why, and how it could be improved. Positive feedback is good, but keep it polite!

* Friday lasts while it's friday somewhere in the world. You have roughly 48 hours from the time this was posted! (And this week it's extended to saturday!)

** You can crop and rotate or add a frame, but don't touch that filter button. Not even auto-enhance! No sharpening, adding vignette etc. 645pro's film modes are filters too. Double tap the mode (film choice) button, and both buttons should disappear giving you a filter-free image (if this doesn't work check you have the latest version).

I'll kick this one off ... 645 Pro in Q-mode

"Reaching for the sky"

Good luck everyone!

I thought that was a macro shot at first - it kind of looks like it, the way the branches are it's just like the distortion you get at the edges of a macro shot. And no beta

I really love the composition in that one!

I love paint ( tattoos ) and have several ( u can't just have one ).. This guy came into the laundry yesterday and I had to shoot his back. The Apped version is in my 366.

Don't you just hate it when you have to shoot them in the back? It's so undignified!

I like it, but what is it?

Yeah but to ask for more would have been unseemly...

Nekkid 645 sunset. That flare is the flare I used to complain about and have decided to just embrace.
