Number 3 is definately my favourite definately suites potrait more than landscape. The filter added such a great effect top work. |

I didnt even notice that light... thanks for pointing it out. I'll get rid of it when I print it. Cheers for the feedback, Harry |

Fair enough. I spose u have to know the context of the shot. Cottesloe beach is extremely busy in summer and in winter it is like a war zone! there is crap everywhere. That shot looks so different to what u would see if u went there tommorow. There is no seaweed, no rain, no spiky rocks, no danger signs etc. This is a shot without the filter. same shot just no color to it. and believe me. That shot is still incredibly different to the real thing! I will straighten up that horizon on the original. I didnt even notice! Thanks for the feedback. |

Unfortunately my comp is screwing up a little so i cant actually enlarge them atm but they're looking good. Nice to c you trying different things  I wish it was the D80!! It comes out in late september so i'll get one then. I have a set of 5 gradiating filters and a polariser (screw on), they are really hard 2 use though and i had no blu tack so i resorted to chewy! |

In terms of actual manipulation there is none, just partial desaturation and shadow increase during the RAW processing. No filters, No effects and no manipulation (besides cropping.) |

Dull colours and a pretty mundane subject just aren't doing it for me. mmmm i agree, there really semms to be a lack of color in these photo's, it was why i asked what sort of photoshop work was done to them. I am not sure what everyones obsession is with desaturating images to go for the black and white look is. Its becoming a bit played out IMO |

They are all partially de-saturated but they all still have some color so that they dont look too 'flat'. I'll show u what the originals look like. Tell me what u think. 1. 2. 3. 4. The only one I think looks as good or better is number 2 (Number 1 in the first post) with the original saturation |

I'm really undecided with the bridge photo i really like the colourless look but also really like the colour one as well. Either way great shot. |

Yeh. When I got back I was really pissed off cos they look pretty crap, so I spent about 20 mins fixing them all to bring them to an acceptable standard. Much better! |

Not sure about the latest batch, #2 stands out, the rest don't really do much for me. Really sharp and contrasty but lacks a subject and the bride just runs straight through the centre of the frame. Yeh i see what u mean. I need to go and find some properly good photos. I WILL get some. I just need to find a place that I havent been and find some sort of interesting shot. |
