Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

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.

Very nice, you can see in your photos why BA is decribed as the Paris of the southern hemisphere :D

Certainly Glen - I would like a little more time over there. The night life is fantastic to boot and the women are easy on the eye. Unfortunately i was quite limited in the lighting i had available in my 2 days in BA. I especially like this shot with the distorted reflection of the old building against the office block.

Works for me. Perhaps i have included too many "crane" shots in this series?

The shot of the distroted reflection is great. I would perhaps try cropping it to lose the left reflection and right patch of sky. I like the fact that there is only 1 window open

Willy you have created some beautiful images here. I like #1 and #2 in the first series, #3 (my pick of the lot) in the 2nd and #2 in the 3rd sries.
By way of comment, albeit with opportunity gone until next visit :lol: anway, I would probably attempt to crop out the modern building in #1 and turn it into portrait style( I find the new building too distracting. I suppose as a juxtaposition(old and new) image it could work but i prefer the crop option.
I think, my favourite the street scene is compositionally very good and would work well also in Sepia or B&W
#2 in the 3rd series again would the opportunity present I'd choose to get in closer and include just the 2 older buildings and their spires top third position using the wider end of a 12-24. More realistic option cropping out the new building. :)
Terrific images Willy. I am very envious, what a trip it must have been. I look forward to more :wink: :)
cheers
