Small edits permitted

I was hoping for pictures other than landscapes, imagination regarding the subject title would have gone a huge distance. Sorry Tim, a picture of the family dawg, as cute as it is, just didn’t do it for me. :D Anyhoo: -.

(Please note, I’m looking for a mood or feeling here. Quality is secondary.)

Love the contrast between the mountains and sky.

Second Place

Marvellous shot, but the boat really takes me out of the picture. This is a case where I’d argue that a slight photoshop edit would really improve the overall effect.

And First: -

I love this. It’s pretty empty, but the off centre few people in the boat really make it. The cityscape on the horizon screams industry and activity, and these people are slap bang in the middle of nowhere, on a calm sea. It suggested the topic title like no other entry IMHO.

Your other entry is very, very nice, but I really don’t like a subject being centred in the middle of the shot. Weren’t you taught anything about composition dammit! ;D

Considerations

Crossbob – [URL]http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/3429/cloudsfromaeroplanewindow9sl.jpg[/URL] I’m a sucker for looking out of plane windows, shame the camera is of pretty low quality.

Beautiful. Although are you sure you took that yourself?
J-42 [URL]http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=serenity0117ce.jpg[/URL] I love the focus.

All were of high standard, all were interesting.

I hand over to you FFF.

I know - I spent about 20 minutes trying to get a good shot of it but for some reason I couldn't get the focus. Any suggestions on how to get a focus on close up objects?

I also have a few other that are better, but they are too big for image shack to upload.

Don't use that second one - the focus is wrong and it hurts my eyes.

Why is it that I can't edit my posts without posting in that thread at the same time?

I'm spoilt for choice at the moment, collecting about five possible entries but haven't decided which to use. Hmm.

Turns out that they're too big to upload onto image shack.
