OK...one of the first opportunities to go out with my new 40d today so I decided to take a trip back over the Lancashire/Yorkshire border to my home town, well village, and visit Pendle Hill - what was once a 20 minute drive now takes over an hour though!

C&C most welcome - all taken with kit 18-55 lens, bit of PP in lightroom but not much, mostly to brighten them as it was a very misty day!

Something about the last one caught my eye so had a little play. Hope you don't mind. I get bored this time of night ;)

Cheers
Marc :)

:eek:) don't mind at all! I've not really got the hang of the whole image processing malarky yet! What did you do and in what though :thinking: I'm guessing some form of contrast adjustment and sharpening?

This is my first foray into the world of DSLR after previously using P&S cameras (A70 and S2IS) so I open to as much inspiration as I can get - having looked at some of the pics on the forum I think I have a way to go yet so will continue to post my efforts for C&C :naughty:
 
I like the tree's :D but the others seem to have way too much sky in them for my liking - be different if the sky was more interesting but its just an expanse of gray. Like the first too - think the DOF works quite well.
 
mate i'm a total noob - what i've done is what i've learnt over the past few weeks on here and reading stuff about Photoshop on the net.

I still get nervous posting edits cos i don't know if what my edits look like are actually any good.

still it's good practice and in most situations you can at least make a bad image look ok (most of mine start of bad!).

There are plenty of threads on here (do a search) to get you started on the basics! :)
 
Just a tip - some of them are over the Board limit of 800 pixels for the longest side. Suggest you resize before the Mods break the Image links :)

3 of them have way too much sky/mist and could do with cropping.
 
Last one for me aswell(y), not keen the others to much grey sky. Nice edit chump :clap:
 
As has been said they could do with some cropping, I hope you don't mind I have had a play with number 4 I think it could be improved with a different camera angle as well but here is what I have come up with.

Quite famous site to a birder, where Dotterel can be found in migration months.

thanks for the comments - I agree about the sky having looked at them again, I was attempting to show that 3/4 of the hill was actually shrowded in mist but it hasn't worked :LOL:

I'll have a bit more of a play with these and maybe post them again.

Good idea - post them in this thread then the improvements will be easier to see.

Have Fun!
