Barrie has posted his pictures from a camera club project on the banks of the Tyne in mono. Here's mine from the same trip in colour.

Not too grey then! The stand out one for me is no 3 the old factory buildings and reflection. The pano crop brings out the subject very nicely.

Number 3 for me too. Another nice set David, also like the last one.

I like those smiling faces! Yes, I'm talking about group selfie! That bridge in the background is perfect!
Other pictures are also nice! Good job!

Thanks for the positive comments. It was another good day of photography with Durham Photographic Society even though the light was poor.

Very colourful bridge shots, David - just out of interest, are the colours there as presented, or have you enhanced them?
I too would select the "Colours in the Tyne".

Thanks Derek and Philip. The colours were there but I brought out the contrast a little, first in the RAW converter then with levels in Photoshop to give them more life. I never do HD or over-work the saturation. But I did work on the surface of the river in No.3 more than the others. No. 3 is also my favourite of the set.

Lovely set. I must try and visit Newcastle sometime, instead of trying to avoid it when we use the ferry.
Like everyone No 3 is (just) my favourite, but I also really like the last one.

Impressive set David. It's a great area for photography.

Best regards

I really like the degree of care that went into the first one with every gap in the ironwork being made to frame something interesting and without any part of it appearing forced. Also, as the others all agree, No 3 is lovely.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

All nice but #2 works best for me - strong composition and colours, and the perspective gives a bit of quirkiness.

Thanks Gwyn, Gary, David and Sry. Newcastle is very photogenic. Someone told me there are more listed buildings in this city than in Bath. I find that hard to believe but then Newcastle is a much bigger city than Bath so its possible.

Super set David... strong frames throughout... really like 1 and 2... no.2 in particular... has a strong graphic quality, complemented by the contrasting colours...

Best
