Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread. Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Chiselled Winter Shadows
Some late afternoon colour and shadows - all taken within 10 minutes of each other
1st one is very nostalgic reminds me of lovely times in golden bathed sunlight
in particular i like your use of differential focus with the defined branches against the blurred foreground branches, very smart colour and tone as usuall are strong
Barrie
Up to your usual standard. #1 and #3 standout for me more so than #2. Like Wendell, I like the differential focus on #1 and, also as Wendell said, it has an old fashioned feel to it Peter

Very nice Barrie. First two are great. Love the colours and strong contrast. Not so sure about teh 2rd. The brickwork is giving me one of those optical illusions and looks crooked, even though I know it isn't
 Cheers

Barrie,
Sorry... I've been meaning to comment on your images for a while now... You have an excellent eye for an interesting image, a natural knack for composition and your images are always different enough to attract attention... I haven't figured out whether you deliberately decide to alter the colour balance in your images or whether maybe your camera is different to everyone else's... either way, it works well for me...  Cheers, John

Thanks, no alteration of colour on these, before or after. These were shot in aperture priority mode, high sharpness in camera, saturation set to enhanced, normal contrast, shot as JPG's. Shooting in the right light counts alot towards the type of colour achieved
Love the first one Barrie - only thing I wish you'd do is 'straighten the horizon' please ???
Just a little bit off (can't believe I just said that!) .... but then if you do that, the windows become a little off balance ..... scrap everything I said, except that I love the 1st one
