Rhossili Wreck - critique please
Since you posted the original I thought I'd have a go: I think you've got quite a good sky for BW here, it might be worth considering keeping a bit more of it. All I did was play around with highlights and shadows, remove the house and a few larger white pebbles, and cloned out some of the h...

nd gradual filter and a tripod or even a polariser filter would have helped as you said it dose not represents the image you thought you was taking. the eye is very good at this. try adding one on your own software photoshop can help if you have it. good effort thought James

I think shooting into the sun has definitely affected your photo - it's reduced the contrast, and given it a hazy appearance. I also think the sky needs to be much bluer, or have more defined clouds. A circular polariser might help with the blue (and also not shooting into the sun). Part of ...

Test shots high ISO
Thank you for the comments and I know my name is hard Mongoose :wink: Like Peter said I used stacking to clear out the noise but wanted also to stack to stack exposure but that didn't went so well :oops: I took a metering and simply too the half of the thinking if I stack that I would have perfe...

Four trees in Herts.
Very nice Prieni. You have essentially applied a graduated filter to it is PS? I tried making the sky darker but hadn't thought of a grad-type effect. Best wishes, Kris.

I didn't do anything you wouldn't be able to do in the darkroom. The graduated filter is no more than carefully burning in the sky which I used to do with a bit of black card. The main thing you would find difficult in a darkroom is take a colour image and print it in black and white but I would...

Hmmm... Not to sure about this one?!
The scene was asking for a graduated grey filter to darken the sky. I have had a quick attempt at the pick, putting a white gradient from bottom to halfway, a black gradient from top to halfway. Both layers with layer mode soft light. I think it does look a bit more natural. With masks on the...

Hmmm... Not to sure about this one?!
Here is mine version. Almost the same what Prieni have done but instead of a graduated grey filter I use a colour burn layer that only effect the lighter tones so the clouds. Then I also added a colour dodge and a but before all that I make the photo b&w and coloured it again.

Jungle of the Night vol 2
Hi Aiki, my mistake I can see from the original that you have done little pp. As Anvh says it is just the trees in the foreground look strange a little like you have used the posterize filter. This isn't necessarily a bad thing though... it's quite striking! :D

Jungle of the Night vol 2
Sry, I even do not know what the posterize filter is. Have never used it and I do not know what it does. True it is, we never can please everyone :) But this is the information that I am looking for - do many dislike/like and also why:) Thanks for saying out what you think - whatever it is :)...

Which version, Flower
Just a little experiment to see which one you like. Colours I've pretty much figured out what work but not B&W since I love to tone them a bit. What I like to know is which one you like more, 1 - B&W or Colour 2 - Which Colour 3 - which B&W So here they come. #1 Original #2 Enhanc...

Can you tell I got a Raynox recently?
All taken with Tamron 70-300 plus Raynox 150 and off camera flashes. I got this Raynox 150 a couple of months ago thinking it might be a handy thing to have in the bag when I don't have my macro lens with me. I've barely used it so thought I'd have a play last night. I've was pleasantly surprised...

56 Spark plugs.
Looks a bit too flat for my taste. I wouldn't do the sepia toning in-camera, I would use whatever PP software you have. My version uses the CS3 sepia filter feature. K.

Pavey Arc
Did you use polarizing filter? No filters, it`s handheld with me almost on my knees, was wondering about the stones in the water, do they add or detract from the image? Davex.

Snowdonia shot - keep or delete?
I had a little play with your image. Nothing earthshaking, it's more of a green filter conversion which I'm in two minds about. But I think this image shows that there is more detail to be recovered in the highlights of the mountains.

trying to figure it out
I guess that didn't work. Trying to post a Pic I guess I figured it out. This photo was created with Pentax K20D SMC 18-55. Recorded in jpeg with the help of a cokin filter.

Too little in it to make a good shot?
They make HP5 Plus now. I have some rolls of 120 HP5+ in the fridge! The sky went a bit odd when I applied the filter and darkened it down a little. I wasn't really intending to do that and I hope with a full-sized image it wouldn't look quite so grainy. I think the square crop helps though ...

South America trip
Some scenery shots. The last two have obviously seen a bit of alteration. The train was taken and adjusted using the single colour filter in-camera. The salt flats pic has had some curves adjustment but not as much as you might think (the polariser did an astounding job on the sk...
