I took a trip to the Froncysyllte aqueduct at the weekend, its an impressive structure that carries the canal over the dee valley. Heres a few shots

ManCuBuS - There's a Blue *** who visits our bird feeder who also has no feathers on his head. It does look odd!
An Exception - Stop posting cute cat pics, my daughter keeps asking for one!
domthecondom - What look are you going for? I'm not sure about the shadows from the different light sources, they don't seem to come together well. It's nearly there but the double shadow conflicts? The clipped elbow is odd, the smoke might look better blown up at more of an angle so as not to obscure the shisha pipe and perhaps bring the model and shisha close together? I dunno really, but you asked for feedback
marlos - Looks like flare is a bit of an issue, might be worth looking at that in PP?
Throttle - That old Nissen hut with the decrepit car looks awesome!

First ever attempt at HDR. Shot with a Nikon D3100 and 18-55 kit lens. Be gentle! 
Soldato
Oof. I've found a picture of yours I don't like! Rare
The feet are in focus, coats aren't

I like them and great first HDR attempts too but I think there's too much blue disturbance in the lower half of each image and that gives the impression of extra image noise. You could easily solve that by importing to Photoshop and using Hue/Set (CTRL+U) to lower the blue channel saturation and perhaps even Cyan too to see how that looks!
Also, you have a dirty sensor
Soldato
It was at f1.8, just a quick snap as the view amused me. I was getting stick from the wife and mother in-law though as I had just put her on the naughty step and was taking a picture!
I did lift the shadows, this one is a darker PP but has the same issues. Slight rotation on this one as well.

Could be lens dust.
Man of Honour
That's not lens dust, lens dust rarely shows up anyway (if at all) - I know this because my lenses have been dusty in the same situation and only sensor dust shows up.
Soldato
My Siggy 10-20mm is full of it and shows up at F11 on a clear background.
Man of Honour
Is that inside the lens or on the outside?
Soldato
Inside unfortunately 
.
Its not generally a problem though as its only 2 specs and they are at the bottom of the frame. Once I'm at F20 though several more specs become very visible.

Oh, inside dust will likely be a problem, on the front exterior is not a problem

Aww, poor little mite!
It's a nice picture, something interesting about it, although I can't make my mind up if the coats add or take away.
I like it none the less...

Defiant little madam more like! I don't know where she gets it from...
Soldato
I like it. Probably because only the shoe's are in focus and the rest isn't. I am by no means a photographer, but my favourite pciture I took last year was 95% out of focus.
However it was the ethereal look that a loss of focus gave that I really liked.
