    C&C greatly appreciated :)

    Nice image

    Too big to view without scrolling screen. Makes it difficult to appreciate the reflection

    Yeah, it’s been cropped for printing 12″ x 18″, here’s a smaller version and a B/W copy too.

    That’s better, can really appreciate it now.

    I much prefer the colour version. The B+W is too flat IMO

    All the best

    I agree – the colour version is much better. It is a nice shot.

    thanks for the feedback, i’m going to have a go at making a HDR image from this, not sure if it’ll work as i’ll be adjusting the exposure levels in the RAW file and outputting the various exposures as JPG for HDR processing in PS:CS4 Portable, the theory in my head works. should be interesting as i’m only learning HDR Processing, but i had a quick go at a 5 image HDR merge today and i was impressed with the results i got just moving a slider after the merge to adjust the exposure of the final image. i can see how easy it is to get carried away with it though and completely screw up the colours

    Nice colors, though i’m not to keen on the on the spire being dead centre of the image, a little to the right may have made the image stronger i feel. Also the shot doesn’t seem at all sharp, was this shot taken handheld?

    not handheld, but on a cheap tripod i’ve had for a year or so, used in slightly windy conditions well not really windy but it was enough to shift/vibrate the camera ever so slightly during long exposures, this one was 5 seconds, i think, also i’m sure i used the customs house dome as the focus point for the AF in shutter priority mode… i’ve only had my DSLR since ealry feb so have yet to invest in a proper stable tripod, i’m hoping to pick one up in the next few weeks along with a proper flash gun. why do i always go for the expensive hobbies…. :)

    Nice imsage,

    Nice theme, I think the image lacks sharpness and from what your
    tripod is doing it adds up.
