:dunno I was going to throw these into the recycle bin because the originals just didn't do anything for me.I tried the regular post processing that I do but just wasn't happy with the result.I decided to mess around a bit and play with them further,this is what I came up with but I am still undecided.What do you think,perhaps back to the recycle bin ? ....ice.

    To be perfectly frank they dont do a thing for mene_nau.gif .
    Yet I have a lot of shots that look very similar too these. Ones that at the moment I thought ...this has possibility . Some are still weighing down my hard drive as we speak.

    Like this one of the ducks and fog

    Its the ducks fault, they hold some magical allure yet when you look through the moniter you realise how purely evil they really are and thank god I aint shooting film and I can delete rolleyes1.gif

    Cheers

    Close but no cigar. I think if you were back a little more one of them might have been a keeper. I usually find that my first impressions of shots are the best. If a shot doesn't grab me at the first viewing its usually best that I cull it. I keep going back on those shots and waste time trying to make something out of them.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I can definitely see what you mean Ice but I have to agree with the almighty Harry on these. I think the first one would be a keeper if the duck in teh air on the left was closer to get more detail our of it was hit by some sweet light. I do like the DOF on these though.
