Well I'm now in Paris and its amazing but Ive had a little bit of time to run a few photos through and post them here for you. These are a few various arounds in and around Helsinki, Gamla Stan and Stockholm

Enjoy

The first two shots are fantastic - the exposure in the first seems spot on. My only niggle is the empty space at the bottom, although I think I can see why you included it.

The second one is the pick of the bunch.

The last two don't do a lot for me.

Good work.

It looks like you're having a very exciting time, and the pic's are great. Love that second one.

Thanks for the comments P, I did include the space in #1 to give it a big airy feel as thats how it felt, MASSIVE with no one inside

Glad you like 2, its my fav!

I like them all, but for me #2 and #4 are the standouts here, the colour in #4 is great so much green. #2 I like the DOF, I'd be tempted to crop a little of the bottom, but the narrow almost empty alley I find appealing.

#1 Great space, well exposed and I kind of like how the three central walkers are all homing into the space spot (the escaltors I take it?) Give them all a sense of purpose.

#3 I like it didn't realise it was a selective colour at first.. I have a love hate feel about the reflections.. overal I think I like them more then I hate them.

Thanks Craig I feel the same way about the photos, to be honest there wasnt MUCH selective in 3, it was rather strange. I like 3 because heres this massively expensive car in this old cruddy alley that had very dull colors yet the blue stood out so well.

It does look very out of place doesn't it, and the colour *really* brings that to your attention.

The second shot is the strongest here for me. Lighting and composition is brilliant. The third shot stands out but would have liked to see more of the arch and less of the ground.

[Kris]

Thanks Piro! Yep more arch would be good, stupidly I didnt shoot that part! I was quite close and had the 70-200 on at the time and couldnt get back far enough. Next time

Appreciate your comments!
