Blue Jay
Agree with Terry, the composition is great :) But there seem to be some other problems with focus/camera shake/soft lens, or something. The branch doesn't look too bad, but the bird is soft. Very short DOF? What lens? How far away were you? Is this a tight crop?

Ok, Intervention time: back ground elements distracting.. posing not very flattering.. lighting not flattering... creative processing...not gonna fix the above mistakes, and should be done over.... here's what I'd suggest: have this young lady stand in front of a large window (prefer nor...

More Brutalism
Getting back to the photo...I'm not a fan of 1960s concrete brutalism in architecture but I like the way you have framed this shot Paul. Unlike Martin, whose opinions I respect, I don't have a problem with the pure black areas. The bottom triangle balances the top one. For me these triangles are not...

More Brutalism
I wish I could've been around to photograph London throughout the sixties, I see the old pictures of the place and its cars and people and its very nostalgic. The pictures of that time are so wonderful to look at. I wonder whether it will be the same of this age? It was indeed an amazing time parti...

More Brutalism
Well we are here now in 2009. So, to go back in time and photograph the 'photogenic' 60's might be an easy option perhaps? There is still so much beauty all around us now in the most unusual places if you take the time to look for it, and this is the challenge, to seek it out, have the vision an...

Colchester Zoo
Some photos from a recent day trip to Colchester Zoo. I've been on staycation the last two weeks, so quite a few daytrip photos still to be sorted! Apologies in advance :P It's been a few years since my last zoo trip, but I was really quite impressed with Colchester Zoo. They had quite a few 'wal...

A present for the wife..
Great idea. I'd but the framing at more of a diagonal so the fold of the book runs diagonally across the frame top left to full bottom right corner. I don't think the top left needs to be precise, but the bottom left on the corner of the frame will give an effective lead line through the image. I...

2 and 3 are postcard quality. Did the bridge climb a few years back whilst visiting my parents and brother, all who live in Canberra.

Really excellent photos, I love the effect of the circular polarizer. I also love Sydney, and hopefully will go back for the new Year's Eve...any suggestions on little known places would be appreciated!

More of Sydney
Nice shots from a lovely city - spend a month there some 10 years ago. Now I have relatives there whom I have never met so plan to go back some day. Paulyrichard. It shouldn't be hard to find aboriginals for your kind of documentary photography. When I travelled through the outback I met plenty ...

Wokworth at Dusk
OK, here they are. First I did was a bit cropping at the bottom. After that these were the steps I did in Elements 6. Copy background to new layer. ( CTRL-J) Open levels by hitting Ctrl-L Raise the mid tone slider to a value of 1,10 for opening up the shadows of the grass. Press Ctrl-J ...

Nanchang China CJ-6A
Thanks. I happened to look round and see it coming round the corner so switched the setting to P, dialled in 1/250 for (hopefully) a bit of prop blur and took the shot. As I looked back round everyone was just watching it fly past open mouthed .. including some chap with the biggest white lens I hav...

My 'real' work
Hey Lance, thank you very much! Don, taking the Pentax into the work environment is always a bit risky what with lump hammers and the like knocking around, so I like to bang it into programe setting so I don't have to think too much, run off the shots and put it straight back in the van. It's a c...

Whoa
Mike I love it, keep coming back for another look and my monitor will not take it all in one view. Resisted the urge to print it out as I think it would loose a lot not just the back light but the quality. First class for me and I would be pleased to have it on my wall. Kenty's shot does not plea...

White Helmets in action at Cromer. The hot food stall behind looked well placed for this shot. :lol: Now back from 4 weeks in France and 2 weeks in Norfolk.

I think it would because then it would portray some movement! Plus with a slightly blurred back ground it will make the bike, ramp and the flames stand out more!
