Neat stuff! Is this all near the wharves?

[Bambi]

Thanks for the comment. The last one is near the docks. The others are all part of Citadel Hill which is an old fort.

[Mad Aussie]

cool!

#3 is especially neat to me but they are all interesting...love old sea ports for finding cool rusty stuff. :)

[AntZ]

Very cool. They are all wonderful.

[Bambi]

thanks Casil and Antz. #3 is my fav as well with #1 a close second.

agreed - number 3 fave for me. A wee bit more of levels play and it will sing even louder. I also really dig the shapes in shot 1.

thanks Marko. I have a question: by 'levels play' what do you mean?

[Marko]

levels or curves - basically contrast control to get better tonality in the highlights, midtones and shadows. Hope that helps - Marko

[Bambi]

oh okay. Sure I will play with it in curves. I will then repost and you can tell me what you think. :)

[Bambi]

okay Marko I did a small change of the curves. What do you think:

So I had this day at work in which I thought I had made enough copies of different papers to pull together 4 interview packages. However, it kept not working out right and my brain just said 'that's it, I'm out of here' ---Apparrently something is affecting my ability to count!!! :eek:
