Thought I'd get these in quick before the board is flooded with London shots after this weekends meet :D (sorry I wont be able to make it but I have previous engagements I cant get out of :rolleyes:)

I've been very busy recently and I just haven't had the time to get out and take many photos. So I've been taking my camera to meetings and visits and hoping to snatch a pics or two on the way to or back from these places. Here are a few I've squeezed in over the last day or two.

Everything is open to editing, comments, critique and personal slights as always ;)

1. Eros. B&W conversion and tinted.

2. Buses on Haymarket.

3. more buses on Haymarket. Perhaps not as good as the other one but I like the 'glossy' feel to this.

4. China Town

5. China Town again.

6. I'm guessing this is Neptune (selective sepia tinting).

7. As above but B&W. I cant decide which is best (if any of them?)

8. Same place different POV (more Wally tones).

9. Car parked up the road from where I work. PS work is a bit naff, need some attention (it was getting v late last night and i was tired). I think the overprocessed look works here but I could do with some pointers.

1 6 & 8 for me Mohain. In #6 I think cloning out the tree on the right would help a lot. With #8 I think the B & W conversion isn't as good as it oculd be IMO. It needs a few darker tones to contrast against the very light/white tones.

#9.... What a kickass muscle car :D
 
Thaks for the feedback guys.

Colin, I hear what you are saying about the tones.

Hoodi, yes it was. It was shot lateish in the day and the low light seemed to saturate all the colours, that's what caught my eye. I underexposed the shot and there is lots of noise in the car (I'm still not used to being able to change the ASA at will!). I need to go back to do a proper 'Shop job on it but it was getting late and I was sleepy :)

Cheers.
