My latest batch of images (Devon again)

neverender · 25 Jun 2006 at 22:16

Managed to get out and about a couple of times over the last 3 or 4 days, and these are a few of what I've come back with. As ever, thought I'd share and get some feedback, some comments and crit as welcome as ever.

Like the last batch, all taken at various places close to my home in Devon.

I used to love landscape work, but frankly I'm struggling a bit now, and not finding it as interesting. Give me a more contrasting and striking subject any day!

Cheers for looking

really loving 3 & 6, 6 especially

5 is nice and dark (not in the literal sense)

Get an IR filter, that'll make yer landscapes a bit more striking

Does no-one else thing shot 5 is awesome??

Well, I do.

I like them all except for 4, its just a bit boring and photoshopped. Maybe its because it contrasts so much with the other photos?

Number 5 is my favorite. Nice used of DOF and some nice texture in there.

5 and 6 are amazing!

Just need a cat jumping into the centre of you're frame in shot 6!

Yeah, not sure if I like it either. I processed all these together and for everything else (bar the animals-eye-view of #6, which I tried to make a little un-natural) I didn't wait to go ott with the processing.
#5 was my exception, as I wanted to get a really strong blue sky which I didn't in the others. From one extreme to the other I guess. I've also taken neigh on the exact same photo as that before, albeit with my old camera (its on my site somewhere) and so wanted this to be different.

Cheers for all the comments guys! Keep em coming!

Hehe, yeah! That was the idea for that shot actually; low to the ground and pushing through some undergrowth, just like an animal's-eye-perspective.
