All great except for 4.... I'm going to have nightmares, thanks.

LOL... Yeah, I hear ya. That shot was taken at a fetish fair in the summer. Not usually my cup of tea, but I figured it would make for some different shots. This one's more than a bit disturbing but I really liked the contrast between the old normal guy on the street and the, um, "guy" in the ring.

Lazy, good shots all round, I think you process a shot much like I do when I can be bothered, you process it to suit the shot and how you envision it?

Good to see some colour as well, not that there is anything wrong with your B&W's.

2 I see the interaction between gull and person, but that black background is distracting IMO.

5 The blue band on the bulldozer, doesnt seem right, was it that colour or was it matched to the building in post?

 

[Lazy Photographer]

Thanks Rob.

#2 - The black was originally deep shadows of the building this walkway was leading too, so I decided it might be neat to simply knock it out.
#5 - Boy I'm not sure anymore. I see what you mean. I honestly can't imagine it was that vibrant. Just not sure anymore.

I like #6, especially the fact that you put the post dead center. This is an example of a type of image that is intriguing, one where there are two "sub-images" within the image, each of which would work if cropped out and presented by itself. Here, the sub-images are the right and left halves of the frame if you cropped down the middle of the pole. Most images like this, either in painting or photography have sub:images in a 1:2 ratio, not 1:1 like this, but it works.

Thanks Ken. It's funny, I was expecting to get some grief about that pole being centred. It works for me but to each his own, right? Glad you like it.

Number 2. and Number 6 are my favorites very nice candid photos that don't look like snap shots.

Nice shots
2. The subject of the shot confuses me. The bird seems to be the main foucus but the guy to the right and the lighting on him is destracting
4. why?
5. If you can try to go back with a UV filter and shift your position to the right a bit.
3. nice example of selective color and a great shot. bravo
