Like the first one with Tower bridge in the background, the second one needs a bit of distortion correction on the right hand side.

5.05am? :cuckoo:

[Forbiddenbiker]

Yea, its got a bit twisted pulling it straight, trust you to be the first oneto look...you always spot my poor correction, Lol. ... Note to me; must buy lens correction software.

Ta Colin. :thumbs:

Excellent shots, again I'd go for number one, but both very good.

[Janice]

That first one is extraordinary, Adam.

The left half looks like old-time London, and the right is modern!! :thumbs:

[Dark Star]

Very nice Adam, the curvy building in no 2 is getting featured quite a lot lately! Number 1 is a great shot and well processed imo!

Funny you should say that Jan .... because the right (Hays Wharf) is built in 1710.. But Tower bridge was built in 1855.

So infact, its the other way round. :D kinda... heehe.


John , damn, first one I've seen, tis a new building afterall. Lol. :( ;)


Thanks guys.

I have been known to do things the other way round, Adam! :D :lol:

But not usually by mistake! :thumbs:

Many thanks Michael! Nice one!

I really love the atmosphere of the first. The light, the haze, the colours. Its great. Unfortunately the 2nd doesn't do anything for me.

I agree, the second seems slightly out of focus if anything.

But the light in the first one is absolute magic! :clap: :thumbs:

[Venomator]

First one is a real winner imgo Adam ... :thumbs: ... nicely composed ... well seen ... and excellent lighting ... doesn't make me want to get up and be there that early though ... :nuts: ... but happy looking at your efforts ... :D







:p

[Joe T]

Sunrise is a wonderful time for shots isnt it! That first has some lovely light!

[Forbiddenbiker]

Well I did just put up the second to demonstrate the light at that time today…kinda thing.

...honest. :D …well nearly. :lol:

Thanks for your thought guys. :thumbs:

[Forbiddenbiker]

:nuts: ... but happy looking at your efforts ... :D



:lol: :lol: :thumbs:

[minimeeze]

You dirty stopout :p

Love the light in the first shot.

[chewyuk]

Fabulous Light in the first, did I read a 5.05 time there.. on a Sunday !?!

[Forbiddenbiker]

Yes mate, I truly glorious time of day to be out it has to be said ... they closed the club at four so we didn't have any choice anyway :shrug: :lol:

Thanks guys ... You know, although it’s my shot, I took it, processed it, decided on a look and posted it ....I hadn't really looked at it until last night.

... I think it may have pushed its way into my personal best shot, first spot position. For me, it’s like a wee taste of my preserved next level up ...kind of thing.... that probably makes no sense. :cuckoo: :lol:


Thanks for the comments everyone.


PS. Jan, your focus point. I’ve hdr'd the paved area in the second, I think that has something to do with the slight blur, not sure...it is hand held maybe that too. :)

[cwinhall]

The first is great but I think you could of done a way better job in post processing. The building to the top right seems to have a blodged effort in cloning something out (probably antenners?).

[Forbiddenbiker]

Yep, tis, rush job sir, I'll do a better job on the origianl sir. :( Thank you sir.

:thumbs:

you missed the b**y great sensor dirt spots though. ;)

Lol. thanks.
