2> Some of the trailers that have been 'recovered'. I was escorted off the prom shortly after taking this one by a pleasant security blokey.

5> Different angle, different approach to processing.

So yeah, that's that. Totally different approach to processing these, completely different lighting conditions to what i'm used to!

C&C appericated as always, and with any of my work - if you think it is crap, please do tell me. I won't be offended, I strive to improve and without constructive criticism it's hard to judge what I need to work on!

I like the last one as it has a lot of atmosphere, I think number 3 would have been better with less sky and more refelction myself :)

As for the last one, I really like the composition and the silhouette of the boat/JCB, all I would say is maybe you can clone out that stick and cable on the bottom right. Also, the water in front of the ship looks more like snow?

Thanks. Due to the nice security guards not letting me get *that* near to the ship, the shots from the beach are heavily cropped. I should be able to recrop number 3 that way - i'll post that version up later.

I was struggling with the processing on the last one, eventually decieding that silhouette was the best way to go - i think the water looks like snow because of the low sun it's blown slightly. I'll have a play and see what i can do. Re cloning things out, i'm not very skilled at that - but again i'll have a go :)

I came in to **** off your gay subject matter but have been pleasantly surprised by mans stuff :cool:
I like all the shots but then the subject matter interests me.
Cheers for sharing.

hehe, thanks :)
 
hmm seems i was quite close after all, slightly different shot but cropped for more reflection;
