A scene that could really be anywhere with the old lady on her own with her feeble bags of shopping,it tells a story and is also technically good.The mono treatment is good because this would be little more than a snap in colour

The composition and colours are good and complimentary but I feel there is a lot of noise that does let it down.

Technically spot on Greg and beautifully composed,If you could have cloned oiut the ropes on the boats hull it would have been perfect

The composition colours and low viewpoint have potentially made this a stunning landscape,however I feel that the drastic over sharpening has made it very unreal

This shot really does bring home the violence of boxing with the blood and the look of desoplation on the fighters face.From a technical point though the flash has really burned out the left hand fighters face and overall it does lack sharpness.

Maybe a touch to much contrast but otherwise a super shot,the warmthof the light brings out the texture in the brickwork and the placement of the boat balances the shot really well.

A beautiful boat with super sharpness and the black and white treatment works well.I like the offset composition and also the inclusion of the boats in the background.Maybe a touch more exposure though would add a little more sharpness.

Beautifully seen Chris with a nice mix of colours and I love the contrast between the symetry of the plough lines and the rough area of trees and shrubs.

In the height of its powers in the 1950's it would have been well maintained but near the end of steam in the 1960's it would have been covered in grease and grime.

The bootom half of the shot is really good woth the cobwebs adding to the barbed wire and all of it standing out well against the rich green colours.The oiut 0of focus trees do not however work for me and I would have preffered the single colour background throughout.

Nice building in a pleasant tranquil scene whith the boat also niceleley positioned.The shot does thow appear a touch washed out so I would have been tempted to up the satuartion and contrast to give a bit more impact

Nice composition good reflections and pretty sharp.However the underexposure does make the shot very dull and lacking in sparkle.

I love the composition and technically it is spot on,however for me that filtered sky is way over the top and really spoils the shot.

The compostion is a good one but sadly it is let down by the technical quality.The exposure needs balamcing between light and shade some contrast and quite a lot of sharpening also need adding.

I like the idea but I would have prefferred a few changes.I feel it is about 1/2 a stop underexposed and also in need of some sharpening.In addition I would have had the car facing the camera which would I feel have made a better overall shot.(Especially if its a Frog Eye Sprite)

Thanks for the comments Femke,I did consider a mono treatment for this bit I still prefer the colour version because of the mixed and muted shades

I like the combination of colours and the
more I look at the shot the more I see the figures in the rocks.I would though have eased down the contrast a touch and lightened the shot about 1/2 a stop just to give some detail in the shadow areas

The peak of bthe action well captured and good exposure for an indoor athletics shot.However I would have cropped tighter and also it is need of substatial sharpening.

Technically its fine with spot on exposure and pin sharpness.For me this sort of shot needs eye contact and the lack of it lets down the overall image.

The idea is good and the colours bright and vibrant but for a shot like this to work you need at least part of the image really pin sharp and this lacks that element.
