  great colour in no 2, no 1 looks likes you needed a small bit of fill in flash.

  thanks for your comment.
  in the first my intent was to create a silhouette with the light coming from behind, trying to capture the smoke rising and the decoration at the top.
  I’ll try to over-expose a bit.

  I think the first is a really cracking shot, I love the colours and the steam rising. Silhouette might work slightly better if some face was visible but I still think its a lovely photo. Definitely my favourite of the series.

  The first and last are good. The second doesn’t work for me as the framing isn’t right, the subject’s pose is not really interesting; the third is OOF and fourth missing a clear point of focus.

  thanks all for your comment, I really appreciate it.
  I shot the second more for the colour, you’re right, that pole in the middle doesn’t look nice.
