I thought these images evoked a feeling of coldness and a kinda sobering feeling to them. These were taken yesterday afternoon in the city. The 2nd one inparticularly reminds me of how I think of the city on a Sunday rainless, cold day. Critique and comments welcomed:

Love #3 my fav!!

#3 is the only one here that excites me. It is well composed and has just enough to entice the viewer to linger over the image. #1 I'd like to see in colour and #2 lacks foreground interest.

Thanks Peter.
For some reason the colour version of the cathederal didn't excite me, here it is:

I think #1 might need a good strong shove with curves with just the sky selected or something to get some more mood or anger in the sky...

Not sure about #2... Just me I think

I find #3 an interesting image, the old style foreground subject, with the ultra modern architectural tower in the OOF background... The only thing is that I'd try re-framing to have more separation between the two...

Geoff, no 3 is great, although I agree Andrew that greater separation between Centrepoint and the in focus object would make it really stand out.

Naw - I like the way centrepoint and the scrollwork are connected. If they are more seperated I think that's just what it would be and I would lose the connection some.

I don't care much for the first couple here Geoff - sorry! The last one has an appeal to it though - unmistakingly Sydney, but if not for the tower could be anywhere - nice

I agree the colour cathedral lacks ooomph too. maybe a stronger B & W conversion?
