Now working!

I love the big dipper. Train full of screaming kids half way down and it would be a competition winner.

If it were me, (on the lamp post shot) I'd lose the car park with the crap cars and concentrate on the sexy bendy lamp posts.

edited to add... this forum resizes to 750 pixes wide, so if you post wider than that, they get screwed.

I'd be tempted to try rotating this slightly to correct the horizon, otherwise it makes me feel a bit giddy!

I agree about the crap cars...all the pics are untouched, straight from the camera. They look like diplodocuses don't they!

Hey - you get the sun I get the empty roads. (If only we could trade from time to time on E Bay)

[V6GTO]

And for posting portrait-orientation photos, 750 pixels high tends to work well for easy viewing.

I love the color in the shots, it just seems like there are too few clounds, and they look like there's a smudge on the lens... I'd probably clone out the few clouds.

Do you mean the top one? If there's too few clouds, why would you clone them out?

Well, especially the top one, but the 2nd and 3rd as well. And this is just my personal opinion, but if you have a mostly clear sky with only a few, kind of blurry clouds, it makes it look like an accident, that you didn't realize the clouds were there. It just kind of makes the shot look sloppy, when it is otherwise composed very well. It's kind of how you don't normally want power lines in your photos...
