The contrast is off mate, Adjust the curves to bring the blacks out a litte, maybe even do a mono conversion... did you shoot in auto bracket mode? this would look great in HDR Composition is weighted to the top left and i find the numbers / text distracting... could maybe clone them out...

To the skate park... #7 #8 #9 #10 C&C welcome, thanks for looking. Rick

I got alot done this weekend: - Met Magpieant and Stu from TP forums - was involved in a car crash - didn't embarrass myself with poker - put up with spending the day in a city full of maggies* - saw 3 people, with 4 cameras in the same car ( us ) all fail to get one pic of the other guys...

Hi Ant, nice to see how the pictures came out. i was really looking forward to seeing number 5, as it looked impressive on your LCD at the time! #1 + #5 have to be my favorites, i personally wouldn't have added as much noise but it still works, the shots still look very dynamic. I like #10...

It works for me. i would have liked to see a tiny bit more outlined on the back of the car. just to give the eye a place to finish and follow. nice though! good job.

oh well, seems to be okay though. I was down the docks just after work to get snaps of the sea birds, and as usual the place was just crawling with stupid kids pulling roof tiles off and other pass times the little scum bags seem to get up to. within moments there were 2 police cars. it was...

I was resisting getting some crackers today of a bunch of coppers sorting out a bunch of good for nothings, as soon as i even pointed my camera in the coppers policeman's direction i was getting a funny look from him. i know there are very few laws about what you are allowed to take pictures...

nice. I may have to request a larger version of that last one. i am a good friend of the guy who painted that actual jet! ( believe it or not ) and I'm sure he would love to see this photo. thanks for sharing! Rick

Hi Druid. I am by no means an expert in photography, but i would like to share what worked for me. for the last few weeks i have been with my girlfriend almost none stop. and my new camera has become her worst enemy! as i am always taking pics, and pointing it at her :) here is what i have...

Hi guys, thanks for the warm welcome. These shots did take alot of persistance as girlfriends really dont like getting their pics taken ! i took alot of shots, most were bad, she was either shouting at me telling me to stop taking pics or pulling some kinda silly face. but i found the best...
