Nice colour and tone. I agree with the need to trim the strings though. And i'd like to see a slightly wider crop. Your lighting and processing is spot on though.

Been working on some images to improve my B&W conversions.

Liked this one of a friend playing "Rock Band" over at my house yesterday. Shot at iso 1600 with 10-17 fisheye.

Hi Steve, very professional looking site you have there. I'm near Pontypridd & may be interested. I'm very much a beginner though, what did you have in mind ?

Do they not have 2 street lights the same colour in your area ? I'd write a stern letter to the authorities threatening to withhold your taxes until a reliable white balance setting can be achieved at night !!

Only kidding, the different colour lamps are appealing, but they do draw the eye from the main subject somewhat.

What about re-doing this shot whilst the pub is open to add some human interest, or this the smell of hops then too appealing to pass up ?

It definitely is a shame you couldn't have taken these outside the bus. The low light in the heavy sky combined with the snow covered landscape is really atmospheric.

I'd echo hefty1's comments really, but would like to add that, if you have the software available. Try sharpening number 2 a little & then increase the saturation of the reds to bring out the dynamic lighting.

They all strangely have the sticky label I think. I just cut out the whole barcodes from the boxes & sent those in.

Anyway, just out of interest I've pulled out a clause from a Conditions of Sale from a supplier catalogue and it says something like this: "Goods remain the property of the seller until paid for in full" so the actual legal situation could be anybody's guess.
Doesn't mean squat. Who's to say I looked at the catalogue before I ordered. Unless I am made to sign an agreement stating that I agree to the above then It's worthless.

Prieni, I have one image I am going to enter, first ever entry though, so am not jumping the gun in case I come up with a better shot before the cut-off date. I also think people like to keep their cards close to their chest with such an open theme, in case they give others ideas !
