Works for me. Very angular and sharp. On theme and a lovely blue sky. might be worth a quick look at lifting the shadows a tad. Or maybe a horizontal flip? Good work and keeping up well.
Cheers!
The sky was a gift that day. I did think some fluffy white clouds would have been nice, but I'm just grateful there was at least some colour. I did experiment with different flips, but settled on this one as I thought it made most sense. Lifting the shadows never occurred to me though... something to bear in mind!
Greed, on theme, well composed and cracking colours. Just looks a little soft.
Angles, like it, but does make my head spin :nuts: looks a tad under exposed and I think this one is a real b&w candidate.
Cheers.
Thanks!
A possible explanation for Greed's softness, is that after a couple of pints of Jugged Hare at the pub down the road, I forgot to turn of VR. :bonk:
I did try a few B&W conversions with Angles, but I kept coming back to the blue sky version.
I never knew I had vertigo until just now! Great idea and great angles. I'd agree with the above comments that it's perhaps a tad flat in the shadows, though.
Thanks, it's an interesting building from pretty much any angle. I'm not entirely sure I understand what 'flat in the shadows' means, any chance you could expand on it a little bit?
I like the sky and the colours, the shape of the building is hypnotic
Cheers, it's one of those buildings that most people walk past without even looking up, but it's a gem!
I really like the Angle shot, I can't think of anything to change. I maybe just would have hoped for a few fluffy clouds in the sky but not sure.
Ah skies... the photographers lottery!
You're entirely right of course, that would really finish it off, but given the recent weather I was just happy to have some colour!
Thanks. I'm pretty pleased with how it came out with a sense of size, it makes me a little dizzy too.
Excellent shot for angles taken at a great angle
Cheers... My back's still knackered after contorting myself to take it!
I like angle, looks like it could be from a Batman movie!
Thanks!
If I could have got the B&W conversion right, that would have really given it that kind of feel... More practice needed!
Nick, in the Value shot, d'you think Ken is maybe a bit too far over to the left [oh dear, pun NOT intended, sorry!]? And it might have been better without the left-hand bag (the right one seems to be serving a compositional purpose). (I know you didn't have much choice in either case, but just thinking about the composition.)
Greed, a lovely night time shot, and I really liked Angle as well; the angled shot as well as the angles in the shot!
Thanks!
I did mess about with crops for Value, but with other things around it had to be a bit of a compromise.
Greed is such a lovely kind of shot to take, simple to execute, but really flatters your abilities. Angles is just one of those things, I pass the building regularly, and I knew it'd come in handy one day!
