Finally got around to using my new lens - Sigma 10-20.
Cropped about 60% so it doesn't realy look like a wideangle.
Your comments appreciated.

Woah, looks wiiiiiiide to me :lol: Love WA stuff...

Good use of leading lines, although not sure on the WB ?

Not sure if it's just me or not, but the bright area in the BR corner with the duck (is it a duck?) seems to catch my eye... Wondering about cropping down the right hand side to *just* remove the bright area in the water there? My eye seems to follow the lines of the railings but bounces back to that bright spot... Not sure if that's you intended though... :?

Just trying to provide feedback, take my ramblings with a grain of salt :)

Thanks Andrew, your ramblins are very much appreciated. :)
Actually you're right on all counts. I played around with the W/B a fair bit because I thought it was too blue to start with so I could have gone a bit off.
I thought about the duck as well, the highlight on the face is original so I thought either crop it or enhance it. I decided to lighten the area around the duck . In hindsight maybe better to crop.
