Thanks, Mark. The car is a Mini 50 Cooper S, my third Mini including a classic Mini in the early '80s. Love every one of them.
Stan,
Juxaposition, good spot, nice colours in the stone and strong lines in the modern.
Oval, Prefer the red car just for the colour, but the white one is more oval.
Pete
Red here too Stan. There are less distractions and the blacks and silvers really stand out against the red bodywork.
Oval - I quite like the white one but agree its a bit busy, so red pips it to the post
I’m with the red too Stan, definitely more eye catching.
Your straight shot is exactly what I had in my head too Satn, but sadly me memory tricked me and the location I went to had curves in it....
Great take, I like it, and the forground interest as well.
Doesn't come much straighter than the rails, I wonder if it would work in mono. I really like the trees, on theme or not it makes an interesting image
Railway lines is good for the theme, as has been said, you can`t get much straighter.
Railway lines is perfect but I too would like to see a mono version, the trees is an interesting effect not quite sure it works but certainly catches your eye
... makes me wonder if a bit of blur on the trackside might add. on second thoughts ... No
Nice and straight.
Love those trees.
Hi Stan
B&W Straight image works very well. On the colour version the brown of the building distracts a bit. ICM is one thing, but the PS motion blur does not work at all for me.
Pete
The motion blur trees is superb!
I love them both Stan, I much prefer the colour one, I might be tempted to nip a bit off the top, but I really like colour and textures in it. Those trees now they’re right up my street, love it.
First one for me, I like the bin in the middle of the shot surrounded by litter
Litter is very unattractive and you took the shoot well, like the first as nice DOF and love the 3 cups on the bin.
Both work, always a nice sight. I used to work most Sunday mornings thats exactly what its like
Both work for the theme Stan but it's got to be the first one for me like Chris I like the bin in the middle of the image surrounded by the litter
