I think you're getting the hang of this camera thing now Pete

:thumbs:

Perhaps time to take it off 'P' do you think?

Seriously though, I reckon you're good enough now to have a crack at a few 'Random People' shots too, it's tricky, but worth a go

Have you thought about doing a 365 ???

Aside from shooting my left foot every morning (which I'm sure would get boring ???) I don't have any time for such creativity, but I think you could do it and benefit from the development over the year

You never know, you could get good enough to write a book or something !!!

You need goals you know (just like LFC I hear)

Terrible shots Pete :P

I love #5 I dont really know why I think its just the smoke rising from the bottom but the cranes still being intact.

The other shots are all up to your usual high standard.

5 is a cracking capture. Most of the rest aren't processed to my taste although I am sure they are a good representation of the genre.

:) Some have obviously had a lot, others not so much. Tunnel & ship with fireworks for example.

Lovely set of shots but some I feel have too much HDR. 3 & 4 though are really beautiful.:clap:

Just so you know, only 4 of the 10 have any hdr. :)

Not 6 :) 75% right - not bad.
How did you get such fantastic colours in 6?

Bit of tweaking in Lightroom. It was a really lovely evening which helped.

~5 and ~10 for me pete.

5, cos it's a well captured moment and suitably procesed.

10 cos it conveys a windy day at the beach brilliantly. It would be absolutely perfect but there are a few bits that are untidy, e.g. a big white bit on the lhs of the horizon and around the lighthouse. They may be completely natural but they look a little like where the sky hasn't been masked properly.

I have massive problems with this normally btw.

6 & 10 are excellent captures.
