Fantastic mate. You have really nailed the HDR ones if you ask me. The B&W ones are great too.
#5 is an interesting shot that I wouldnt have thought of taking but it looks great.
 
Really good mate. #5 is amazing. I really like #10 aswell but I can see a bit of movement in big ben. I think this may have been because it was more than one exposure blended? When this happens to me I just pick on the the exposures and create an HDR from one file.
 
Cheers mate.

Number 5 is one of those hidden gems. Didn't notice how good it was until someone told me!

Number 10 was literally just a single exposure. I'm not too fussed about the movement of big ben as the focus imo is the bus/blur.

Definitely a shot I'll be going back to do properly, however.
 
I feel most of them are a little too dark as it looks like you've exposed the shots for the sky maybe HDR would help in this situation or a bit of dodging in PS
 
Some great shots there for sure. Not sure about the first one though, I think the points sticking up from the bottom the image spoil it a little, but then without cropping in on Big ben and making this a portrait orientation shot, I am not sure how you could remedy it. Maybe clone them out I guess. Either way a great set
 
#5 is just too dark for me - and my screen is set to max brightness!
I do like #10 and the other long exposure shots...
 
I love the B&W ones but totally agree that #5 is an awesome shot. I tried some puddle shots today, but there was nothing fun reflecting.
 
Hi FP
Very impressive set.
Have to agree on No5 - very different and stands out.
Like 10 too. Very good timing to get those light trails to just stop at the clock tower.
No 11 reminds me of a thirties post card - ( not that I was around then ) nice.
Finally, like 2 & 9.
 
Not bothered at all about Big Ben waving about, this, (no.10), is a fabulous shot...the others ain't 'alf bad either. Lovely collection of images with a lot of effort spent on them. Nice.
Regards, Alan

Thanks for your comments. Any in particular that are too dark in your opinion?

I originally cropped it out but after doing so much preferred the little spikes in the bottom. I feel they gave it a context that without them was lacking.
Thanks for the comments though, much appreciated.

Thanks Alan.

Seriously guys thanks a lot. I think I've definitely found my niche. I love cityscape photography and the street/candid potential just adds to that.

Thanks for commenting guys never thought I'd get such a positive set of comments. (y)
