All crackin images, 4 & 5 my fav. Are they HDR? If so nicely done!

The sky in image 2 is insane! Nice shot....HDR?

I like 4 most, and then 5. The trouble with HDR is that it can take too many shadows away. You could pull back a bit on the treatment. 2 is interesting, but the (pseudo?) HDR makes it too cartoonish.

4 really is a good photograph.

Nice images. #2 sky is just weird

I will go against the grain as I think number 1 is my favourite. I love the light in it and the black and white conversion.

Thanks for the comments All are HDR fyi. I try to go for slightly above natural look with my HDR-ing, but not over the top. I think from your comments I may have gone a little far in number 2 but then the original was pretty extreme too:-

I was thinking at the time I really need to show this cloud off, maybe I over did it, hehe.

Sorry to go agaisnt the grain here, but some of the photo's have left me with "Something" that makes me not like these and i think its the Aperture used, somethings just dont look sharp for me.

Sorry.

Don't be sorry, I'm here for critique. I'll keep an extra eye on my aperture settings and read up a bit more, I'm still learning.
