I love those headlights they are oh so round and friendly...like a warm smile. This photograph is sharp with good contrast seen and tightly cropped to bring our attention on the round headlights. Nice post.

Good in monochrome. You are the b/w specialist and seem to know that textures really are pronounced when shot in monochrome. Good one.

The bright colours do bring this 'decay' to an exciting level. I quite like it.

Now THIS IS a wall and I like it in b/w but it has a strong gray bias.

What is It
avatar still26
still26 says:

We have one of these in our gym and they are excellent for a good biceps work out. You place your hands on the leather element and lean your body into a 45 degree angle, curl your toes in to prevent slippage. You then do a push up bringing the head down to leather element and ensure that the forehead is touching and hold the position for the count of 15 breaths, make sure the breaths are deep and diaphragmatic in nature. Then straighten out your arms, take a step forward to relax then redo the whole process agaiin...do it about 15 times and you will have biceps like OLGA from the VOLGA!

What is It

No way Jose, this is obviously a toaster over used to make pizzas and melted cheese wraps. It has two stories where you can make pizzas and or cheese melt wraps. You put the charcoal into the lower section or the belly and then the smoke accumulates in the oven part before it goes up the chimney. The natives painted this red so as to hide the hot firey red that changes the whole structure into a bloom of fire.

So this is the famous St. Moritz, thank you. If you post processed this in PS you could bring out some of the shadows and pop the canoes a bit more...just go to image...shadow/highlight lever and play with it.

Loch Ness maybe? Interesting low lying clouds, good contrast and a photo that is "pretty as a picture".

Nice a crisp with good exposure. The top of the hotel is nipped off and the only reason I'm noticing that is because at our photo club a member submitted an image similar to this , it was perfect, until one of the members noticed the top was clipped off and that photo did not make it into the Photo Exhibition.

Yes, it dips to the left and my eyes feel like it could use just a touch more of exposure but a nice landscape indeed.

I like this capture and the gloomy day comes across. When I look at this shot it makes me want to go there. Nice and sharp and realistic. I like the lead line of the grasses taking our eye to that all important spot of 3.

What a grrrrrrrreat colour palette, looks almost like this machine is fashion conscious. How tall is it and I wonder what does it do. Well taken.

still26 says:

The crop may be a tad tight because we would love to see more of the machine, well at least I would but your crop is your personal artistic choice. Nice and sharp and quite interesting upload. What does it do? The bags are from Guatemala and 'cosecha' means harvest or crop....crop of what!

Love the intensity caught on the man and I would have loved to have seen more of this "work machine". Good in colour as red, a hot hot emotive colour suits the situation.

When you are working in PS go to your shadow highlight lever and play with it. You could have brought out that man in the cab and given him more details.

Nice nice tonal range here and your dof is perfect as is the crop. I am trying to figure out where you are standing? In Greece?

Good catch and we photographers are always walking through cemeteries...I wonder why? And like all good wanderers of cemeteries, we all ponder the same questions....I like the clarity of this photograph and the crop is strong . You took this during the bright part of the day and your exposure is spot on.

Great catch with this one although the focus could be sharper and the man growing out of his knee does weaken the image. Had you put this into b/w you would have made it timeless. (or sepia)

Side Street Stairs

still26 says:

How unusual...blue stairs, hmmmm! I think a bit of a crop down would improve the image and help focus on stairs. Remember how the human eye gravitates to the lightest and brightest spot on the canvas.

Wow the detail is phenomenal, what a work of art. My eyes desperately would like to see this without the tops lopped off but that was not your intention.
