Took these last November when I had a K100D. Thought i'd have another bash at PP them, since I've become more adept at Photoshop now, and my tastes have changed a bit.

Bob, #3 is an excellent image. I like the PP'ing of it.

It looks like its a crop from the original so is there any space at the top of the image to be had? The image jus' needs a little more space at the top in my view.

Nice images,

I particularly like number 1 - you can almost feel the chilly November air.

Cheers for the comments guys. #3 was cropped, but not from the top - there's no space left above But...there's nothing stopping be having a second attempt; i'll make a mental note of that one...

I like number 1.
Number 2 is an interesting take from ( if my guess is right ) a well photographed location
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Cheers guys!!!

Yes number 2 is taken from the Chester Clock. I wanted to try and create the feeling that it is you looking down the street; to achieve that connection and make it a bit personal, rather than looking at an obscure or abstract angle.

You seem to be liking these shots, so I have a couple more that I revisited last night too:

All nice Bob, but the colours in the river shot just above
are amazing, the B&W sort of takes me back in time

I wonder if this one takes Shim back in time too:

Don't know which color shot I prefer now :

A nice series of shots..difficult to pick a favourite, probably the sunset ones overlooking the river..

strangely I live 15 minutes away from Chester but never visit to photograph it - you've just given me a few more ideas !!
