Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Ok, I thought while I was on a roll I'd post a few more shots that I've sifted out of the mess which is my holiday photos. Here is another selection of images from London I hope you enjoy them.
First shot is a cool building that I believe is part of the government, and is all glass to show that government should be transparent or some such rubbish. I loved the moody cloud and how it played on the glass, and also thought the pipe and concrete set the image off.
The second image I'm not sure if I've done it justice yet, but I liked it, an artist had installed all these figures on the top of most the the buildings in a fairly big radius, so you can stand there and have the feeling your being watched from above at all angles. It was rather unsettling, but I really liked them.
A line of trees in St James Park, with a single lone figure walking away. I snapped this quickly while rushing to our next stop after seeing the changing of the guard.
Interesting faces, these three were having their photo taken infront of St Stephen's Tower (Big Ben) and I joined in for the fun and snapped a few shots myself. They appeared to be really interesting characters and I regret not taking the time to stop them for a chat. I've tried something that isn't my usual style on this so I'd be interested on feedback on the processing as well as the content.

Craig, some great photos here - I love the 1st & 2nd, and the last is a great candid. The 1st has excellent composition and lighting whilst the 2nd is a really good, structured photo.
Regards, Patrick
Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Bindii - I'm pretty sure it was a Hat, but the photo doesn't show it well and the hat did look like it was made from wool or hair, of something living.
