Very cool. I think the ones taken inside are a lot stronger than the ones taken outside.

#4 makes my head hurt, i love the randomness of #5, and #7 is cool but i dunno why. As i said though, the exteriors dont really do much for me i'm afraid.
 
5 is my favourite. I love it. Sharp diagnal lines, not cluttered. Something I would love as a canvas on my wall at home.

I also like the composition of 8 but I think it needs slightly more contrast - or at least a tinker with the levels...

not keen on the last 3...especially the last 1..probably as its hdr :o

6 i think could work better if you took the shot from a lower height....but maybe there was something around the shot you didnt want in frame?

thanks for posting..
 
Numbers 10 and 12 do it for me, I'm planning to visit soon. My family are all from Liverpool and I would like a shot that is "typically Liverpool" on my next visit. This could be my last visit to a city where I have many happy childhood memories.

I remember many visits to Great Homer Street market, rare visits into town, the Dock road and the tunnel mostly.

What a great city, I'm pleased it's finally getting some investment.
 
:o forgot about this. thank you for all the comments, especially interesting that some of the angles hurt the brains of some, lol.

cheers for the compliment on 5 morgan, i find it the highest praise when someone would actually display one of your shots, especially someone who's work you admire.

I'm glad that the consensus on the geometry shots it's good on the whole.

cheers everyone :)
 
3,5,9,12 are my favs of those. Perspective in 3 is awsome. Id maybe crop / clone the distraction out the top corner of 5 though. Im still perplexed as to how nath got so much colour from that colourless sunset :D

Aside from ST8, do they have accounts here? I'm still working through mine.

Yer i think they do, just not very active. Ill post a few later if people are interested :)
 
#8 & #11 do it for me. Prefer the original of #8 and angles are a photographer's best friend ! ;)
