Some beautiful shots there vulkan especially Really stranded, Yellow and A hill too far .
That's some crazy effect you've created on the hook shot
Love the chain shot though
Why are the pics so small? Is that the limit with photobucket?

[Liquid101]

A couple of really nice ones there.

Have to be honest though - not sure I like the heavily processed ones. It's just taking things a little far for my tastes. I think it's just the colour saturation that bothers me.

'Really Stranded' would look nice with a panoramic crop and a little less colour IMO

[vulkan75]

Thanks for the comments lads.

Im trying to break from Black and white Im addicted at the mo.I agree some are overly saturated ,Ive not mastered it,I tried to process it as I remember(the coloured ones anyway).

Im finding,when im posting at 800pix I have to scroll to see the whole thing,it bugs me so I post a bit smaller(image quality suffers at 800 so 600 aint that much worse).

thanks for the constuctive crit.

Great shots. I'm off to Tenby for a week in May I love the coloured buildings along the front, just a fabulous place to be (especially the pub in the high street, left had side just past the church )

The black and white conversion on the first image is great, really nice tones. I'm not sure about the 'hook' and 'chain' as they have had a bit too much processing for my personal taste. 'Stranded' and 'Really Stranded' are nice, but could do with an increase in contrast and maybe a dab more saturation in my opinion, amazing sky though

Thanks for the comments steve.

Isnt the pub you so accurately describe called the"lifeboat".Of all the things to remember
The hook and chain were throw aways,im in the process of trying some sort of editing on every delete worthy pic,just to see if anything can be salvaged.I like the 3D feel to the hook actually.....it was alot worse before

I have notice a few dust specs or something on these shots,I think I need my sensor cleaned .I dont fancy doing it.Do jessops or somebody do it?.

Have a Good'un in may

I believe it is mate.

Before Jack Johnson became the popularist choice of background music for almost every shop/supermarket/hairdressing salon in the country, this was one of the first places to play his music in the UK, way back when in about 2002/3 apparently (well, according to my Mrs anyway)

[vulkan75]

Shes a Jack Johnson Groupie eh!

They still have live bands there.

I was there for a stag night a few weeks ago .......A great little town is Tenby.

Last time we were there, in 2005, we spent a great deal of time in the pubs there The company she works for has a flat at the one end of town and we try and get there every year if we can, mostly off season. The fresh fish is great from there and the shop in the market sells some cracking fresh prawns.

She was a Jack Johnson groupie............then she met me!

Hi there


Really do like the 1st two, they are spot on for B&W.


The hook is overdone for my taste but some love this kind of stuff.

Thats some sky in really Really Stranded.


Cheers Holo

[senu]

Im not very sure of the hook and chain..
Everthing else is ace

Faves are "A hill too far" and Get in line"

Stranded, Really stranded and Yellow could use some contrast?/ saturation tweaking IMO

Well done, as usual .. great effort

[vulkan75]

Cruncher.I do have small kids but obviously Im not the attentive dad I thought I was .That looks like a lovely place.

TrevThanks for the comments,You sometimes take for granted whats on yor doorstep dont you.I wish the tide had been in though.

holoThanks for the comments

SenuAgreed,will have a play with the originals and try and do better.


Glad you all like the hook.
