The Rocks, Night Shoot.

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Love the second last shot. very nice.

Also like the second shot as well, how the buildings are black and you can see the nice colour of the sky. :)

#3 is great Shoot. I would clone out the ligh patch on the right.
#5 seems a touch over exposed to me. Nice refections.
#6 It is a bummer about the chanel marker in the centre of shot.
I have the same hassels most of the time.

Rob, that 4th shot could have been a cracker if you had managed to line up the light, the tower and the plane. Or maybe if the plane had been further to the right just above the lamp post.

On my monitor the first shot seems to be dominated by the dark silhouette of the building. As I cannot see any detail in the building it doesn't seem to add to the shot.. Just MHO though.

Second one also appears as though the SOH is off level - just like my shot :lol: It's probably the way they built it hey!

Keep 'em coming.

Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

Rob #3 and #5 are both strong shots in this set. I'd be tempted to experiment with straightening the verticals (lens distortion) a little in PS to see how that looks :)
cheers

To tell you the truth i only noticed that lamp post after id put the pic on the computer :)

As for the SOH yeah, ALL my shots of it are crooked. Perhaps an optical illusion from the surrounding area? :P Maybe not :)
