BBC Lights ETSOOI

I've taken these lights before, BBC Media Cafe, and don't think I did a good job of them this time - although the original is in my extras album

There on Thursday for the recording of the Now Show - the one that went out on Friday night and Saturday lunchtime.

Thank you all for looking and commenting on my pictures. I know from doing this before how long it takes to say thank you individually and I'd rather look at your pictures. I don't get much time during the week either, so any thank yous will happen at the weekend.

We used to call these ETCO shots

ETCO.... Edit the crap out? I think Jani had a funny acronym for something similar too. This is neat....I thought I was in the atrium of a hotel...looking at twisted balconies under me

[Shanne]

@espyetta yep - that's what Jani called it - ETCO - @janim

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@shannejw oh! Haha! Got it!

[Jani M]

Love the colors! The top half somehow looks like a face :) Cool stuff! My best acronym is still PMSOOC :-)

[Shanne]

@janim lol - SOOC is just one of those things, isn't it?

[8yearson]

Great shapes and colours! Not been fish-eyed has it?!

[Shanne]

@jackie8 no - didn't think of that at the time - I played around in GIMP

[Richard Sayer]

This makes something special out of an ordinary subject - well done Shanne... and Gimp!

[Kate Carling]

Interesting abstract photo.

[☠northy]

you've definitely gone and made it interesting... i like ETCO... although my personal view is not about editing the whatever "out" but about editing "in"to submission... unfortunately that doesn't make for a fun acronym ;p

i will be looking through your project over the next day to figure out a push challenge for you :)

@janim what is PMSOOC??? (or shouldn't i ask?)

[☯ Sarah ☁]

Cool shot & great ETCOing!!

[Krista Marson]

I like the waves of color.

[Jani M]

@northy Pretty Much Straight Out Of Camera ... you know, just a bit of cropping and straightening and tone tweaking and contrast adjustment and cloning a bit of stuff out but pretty much SOOC :-)

[Taffy]

I do like the color waves and the texture.

[Alison Tomlin]

Makes a great abstract image. good etsooiing.

[☠northy]

@janim ah... of course... must remember that for future reference ;p

[Krista Marson]

I like them better this way.

[Shelley]

Love this! Very creative.

[alta]

I like the wiggly effects!

[Cathy Breen]

This is great, I also looked at the original and I wondered what it would look like upside down and yes I did have a look and it looked good like that too!

[Claire]

Love this shot! And don't worry about the thank yous, I know how you feel and even on weekends I don't get enough time as I would like to spend on 365.

[Lisa Pouncy]

Cool. I did wonder what ETCO stood for and I'll definitely remember PMSOOC for future shots :o) xx

[Carolyn]

The pattern and colors are perfect! An interesting study of lines. It has a real pop value.

[Sally Ings]

Very cool editing, great colour

[Jen Hudson]

Great image, I couldn't think what they were at first.
