I agree with Father Ted also Blythman's comments. Blythman wrote:

Two things are to be gained by commenting (IMHO). There is a lack of feedback, good or bad. Often we look at photos and then move on. You just need to look at the number of views v the number of replies to see this. I'm as guilty of this as anyone and must do better moving forward

On a more humorous note I posted a photo (snap) in My Photos about which I can tell all and sundry: "I have a photograph on the forum which has left everyone speechless" BoomBoom Isn't photography fun

So is the general idea: Don't comment on a photograph unless it is to say how it can be improved, because you are some sort of expert.
What if you just like it for some reason maybe not apparent to anyone else, even if it isn't all that "good"

Thanks for taking the time to leave the useful comments.
The castle isn't far from where I live so will be visiting again.
The sign which says "No Climbing" has been carefully placed to spoil photos Must remember to watch out for things like that.
Will move my position round a bit next time and see if I can get a better aspect, the wall on the right does look odd.

C&C please
Took this with a K7 and after I read about faking IR pics in photoshop I thought I'd have a try. I think it looks spooky.

I forgot about the pigeons. How can I? - there's dozens of them.
They look similar but their calls are different, they fall into two camps :-
"my feeeet hurt - my feeeet hurt - my feeeet hurt"

Seems all "my" birds have "Gone for a Burton" I forgot about the pigeons. How can I? - there's dozens of them.

Surrounded by countryside/farmland here but usually see a bird or two on the fence, this last few months only a few crows on the tv aerial on house opposite. Even the pidgeons which sit on our chimney and we hear cooing have been silent. Perhaps they will reappear in the winter As I am within 1/4 mile of open country I think most of the birds find food out there.

Have just had a flying visit to the fatball feeders from 1/2 dozen starlings. First birds I've seen in the garden for what seems like months. They seemed to have disappeared even before my neighbour chopped down his apple tree and the other neighbour had his apple tree pruned, or to look at it now, pruined.
Perhaps its time to make a hide by knocking a couple of bricks out of the wash-house wall and installing camera etc.

Agree with Japers that the castle seems a bit cramped stuck out on the extreme left of the composition. The IR effect is great though! I will be trying that myself.
The shot benefits from a post-resizing unsharp-mask, IMO. Resizing images always degrades sharpness, which then needs to be restored when viewed on screen at 1:1.

I'm putting photos on photobucket what should I resize them to first?
Probably need to ask a lot more questions, still reading the manual for the camera on top of ps7
