    Re: Late afternoon light....

    Many thanks George. I have to admit that sometimes I crop too tightly in the viewfinder, when I would really be better moving back a little.

      Hi Stephen,
      I find both shots are great & love the warm colours & atmospherics that you have captured with the late afternoon light! The one thing I liked about the 1st photo was the illusion of an arc or wide U shape created by the trees. This was omitted in 2nd shot & although great wasn't quite as aesthetically pleasing to me as 1st pic, I feel due to absence of trees framing focal point. Just my humble , subjective opinion! Great photos, beautiful building!

        Haha, you and I appear to be on a similar wavelength over my original picture Jocelyn

        Basically what you mention is the reason I initailly went for the landscape version. However Ron (Lumix) reckoned Portrait would be better so hence the second shot

        Aesthetics count for a lot, unfortunately as I have said before recently, its difficult sometimes to get all the elements coming together exactly at the right time.

          I would have preferred to have lost the vehicles to the left, but managed to hide them a little in the processing. Some converging verticles but thought it may have suffered for correction.

          Any comments welcome

          A lovely gentle image, beautiful light and shadows photographed and exposed well, Converging Verticles, I don't tend to worry too much, we can at times be too clinical, Why not try an adjusted version and see what you think?
          I like it and the cars are not a dominant/detracting feature. Is this a crop? there appears to be not much room top and bottom to successfully correct converging verticals.

              Stephen,

              I saw a different version of this picture, a portrait version in the gallery section that leaves the appropriate space on the top of the building.
              Personally, I prefer the landscape version with the crop of the portrait version


              Regards

              George

                Yes that ones posted here on page 1 I think with a little more space above the first one it would have been better
