Personally i like the tractor one the most, but i am by no means an expert!! The one of the skyline is also nice, but i like the last one the most.

Mrs F, Number 4 but the tractor is running it close but just looks to need a little bit of burning in on the top left section of the bonnet and a slight adjustment of the curves.
But what do I know, still like No 4 though.

[Mrs Fish]

Any better?

[Tuna]

Maybe one of these three, anyone care to comment?

[ol]

Wow, they're all great photos! Number 2 stands out the most for me, but the colours and lighting in number 3 are excellent.

1. Not sure there is anything of the theme? Hardly any shadows, and it's all too well defined for a silhouette.

2. Nice shot, but again hard to see it fitting the SSS.

3. Ditto

4. I love the abstract look to that one. I really like that.

5. Maybe equalise the amount of shade and sky? Love the two birds and the trees - does it blow up well just on those?

6. Quite a few blown highlights - has the most promise IMHO.

ol - for me it's easily the first one, though it's looking slightly over processed in your latest post. To get crisp edges around the detailed silhouette, you need to set JPG quality to maximum before saving (and edit from the original image).
If you had that in high enough resolution, I would have it as a poster/print.

Ditto - I like it!

Curtis like the flower and I dont normally

Already put one in but thinking of a possible change, any thoughts against the entry to these?

or this just found last night, its some old fuji film the shot was set for 1/160th but the flash didn't fire as those bloody cables are notorious for failing... which is why I recommend the tr-1 IR trigger for 20 quid

there is something fascinating about a weathered face in b&w, gives you something that you can just stare at. or is that just me

[Tuna]

Paul - love the woodland picture.

[Mrs Fish]

Woodland one for me too

[Cabinet Enforcer]

I've never posted pics up for CC before, so I would appreciate some advice

Visited a tunnel at the weekend for some dark/light shots.

Same shot sans me.

Elsewhere in tunnel.
