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

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

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 :D

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... :lol:

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 ;)
