Finally got around to doing the final PP on my pics from the Vintage weekend. These ones are all taken at Hunter Valley Gardens. Anyone care to guess which lens I used for these? :roll:

i like the scene in th elast shot

but i pitty the statue of the crying lady, I don't like statues depicting sadness if you think about it, the expression and that urgh feeling is imortalised for the ages
it's prbably what makes that pic so emotive and powerful, i know it's comical but kind of disturbing

Peter you asked for a guess, and I'll say the Fish Eye :)

My favourite is definitely the first one. It has plenty to offer.

The second one is too loosely composed, I've seen a few shots from near this location that were better composed.

I like the way the path bends and leads into the background, I did notice what looks like fairly servere purple fringing on the tree's in the background.

Nicely composed and I think the colours are spot on.

Statues are cute! I like the 'balance' in this shot.

I had no idea these gardens were there. Shows how long it's been since I was last up that way. I like the effect you get with that fish eye.
