May I ask if this looks over processed?

No I don't think so, atleast not at this size.

What is it, if I may ask Mike?

A shelter at a bus stop.

Thanks Stefan for your opinion, I am quite concerned that I am falling into the trap of too much and unsubtle post processing.

No it's looks OK you could have cleaned the glass first before taking the shot.

Not much chance of me touching whatever was on that glass thank you very much! Knighton (on the Welsh borders) seems a very clean place with very little graffiti but this shelter was seriously neglected. The town has a very odd feel about it which I couldn't quite come to terms with.

Thanks for your help.

No, it looks ok, but subject??

Thank you - as always the subject is personal taste!

Looking at your portfolio you also have a varied choice of subjects!

So far I am reassured that I'm not being too heavy handed.

I don't think it is overdone and I like the photo. I depressing sense of decay, but it "speaks", if you know what I mean. Maybe, it would look good framed with a large border?

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Thanks guys that's reassuring.

Of course it doesn't help that one always works on the same monitor which in my case is not calibrated using anything fancy!

Whatever floats your boat I suppose

But no, I dont think its overcooked either.
Maybe its just my eyes but have you straightened this up at all, ie used perspective/skew/distort tools?

Straightened but nothing else. For once I actually got teh subject level but once I cropped it it looked crooked.
