Hi all,

Just recently returned from a trip around Western Europe, and thought I'd post a few of my better shots (from 1100) to ask your opinion.

Can you increase the brightness a bit on the 2nd and 4th pics. Love the power and majesty of the last pic though. Just needs a bit more brightness to finish it off.

Welcome back. That first image is a cracker. You've captured just the right lighting - still daylight in the sky, but lit from inside as well.

Weakest here for me is #3 - I get what you were doing, but I'd have liked less blur on the cyclist

Agree with Stubbsy here. I absolutely love the first, followed by the fourth and then the second one (how quaint are those different colour houses!). The third doesn't do a lot for me - and I'm not going to give any advice on what to do with it because I'm only a newbie! JMHO.

First image is sensational. Second needs +0.3 or +0.5 EV and maybe back off the saturation a touch? The third one is great and sums up Amsterdam ;), but would like more saturation on this one. Number 4 is a decent concept but needs more detail from the building shadows to be effective.

thanks for the tips and feedback, numbers 2 & 4 are straight out of the camera, will try fiddling in PS for the brightness.
