A good set but for me #3 is my favorite.

Its a good set.
The Baltic has some interesting possibilities and its easier for photographers since they lifted the general ban on photography although they always allowed us to take pictures providing we got special permission first.

Very effective presentation and showcasing of the extreme colours featuring in this display, you've captured a vibrant and wide range of tones and nicely exposed also. I see a magenta cast overall ... Whilst that may have been present naturally, it rarely looks good on photos I feel, so I suggest trying to knock out the magenta, at least on background areas.

These are very nice, they capture the ambience of the place very well. A couple need straightening as they are a bit wonky (first two in particular), but that's no big deal.

Nice set number 3 is my favourite too but the colours in number 4 are wonderful.

#1 has me absolutely fascinated - and I think it has become my favourite of the series. There's the couple vanishing towards the door/arch at the end , and your eye is drawn by the lovely colour on the floor and the very delicate echoes of the colours on the far wall.

Then I suddenly spotted the mirrored panel in the R foreground - fascinating angles and that human figure is at a very strange angle

I really really like this one

I think you've done a very good job there. Do you yourself prefer these versions?

Yeah i prefer the colours Nigel bringing out the plain white walls more but by straightening i am losing some of the subject in the front mirror and the left one with the crop! compromise i guess
