Thanks CJ! I may have to pull an all-nighter to get all my work done and be able to make my flight tomorrow, but very much looking forward to the getaway. I'll be taking as many pictures as my girlfriend will tolerate me taking ;-)

The perspective is great on this Brent and I like the clouds up there too. The other picture is good too, but not necessarily for the idea of "tall", so I can understand why it's hard to choose! BTW - have a great time in London - I want to go back there myself and would love to see Scotland too. Looking forward to seeing your pics when you get back! :-) CJ

I just love how people can sculpt together a giant blob of crud and call it art. I need to change professions! I bet this sculpture sold for a hundred K. Unbelievable. :)
Anyway, the picture perspective is great, Brent!

Thanks once again Rod And paul. I really appreciate the input and feel I nailed this one better this time around. The "taller" image I posted below with a different perspective of the same scene I got also and I am torn about which one to keep now. Hmmm.

Bleeding L I commented on the shot below thinking it was the replacement for this one:-) It's a goodun mate.

Much better, really good contrast between the sculpture, building and sky.

Thanks much Rod and Paul. Yes, the improvements you suggest I was wanting for myself. If the weather and my free time cooperate I will re-shoot this one. I can only hope for the right clouds and I'm working heavy hours every day to clear my schedule to start a vacation next Friday (9 days in London and Edinburgh- wahoo!). I also need to hope the mean looking security guard with the mirrored sunglasses that was giving me the evil eye won't shoot to kill next time, as this is a United States Court House ;-)

I didn't realise it was wice Paul I thought it was only wonce:-)

I like the idea here but i'd like to see it from an even lower perspective and also not have the tree sculpture thing dead centre. A few clouds in the sky would be a nice contrast too like the 2 towers shot you did. You have 2 weeks to pray for the conditions we want.

wice in one day will do me no good at all but i agree with rod as in the sculpture appearing a tad overexposed
Rod 29-Apr-2006 06:51
The shot looks good but the sculpture is overexposed for me, do you like it like that Brent?
