Hi All.
Not posted here before!
I've been taking photos on and off and of various subject types for a little over a year now.
Thought I would share a few of my Landscapes with you.

I agree with rose

the 4th needs straightening up though imo

nice idea with the last just a shame about that overexposed area on the road

Thanks Guys.
I agree about the 4th needing straightening but it was much too difficult to do with the tripod and I lose too much of the image in photoshop.
The flaring on the road reflection always interested me more than the headlight track.
The steel door in the center of that photo is the entrance to a venue I took party photographs at for a few months. I'll post some of them soon. Was a great experience.

Just round the corner I took this photo 5 minutes later.
I love how industrial the area is. Despite it being such a successful district for nightlife.

Really nice shots, especially the one in the city.

But you really gotta dust off your sensor and lens, ALL of them have distracting dust spots on them!

Hey Jabo
Yeah the pylon shot was where I first really noticed the specs.
Very frustrating having to clean the sensor then.

I live in Birmingham, England Grumbledook, it can be quite nice at times :)

The 2sd, 3rd an 4th shots are really great with a little preference for the second one ;).
However I think using HDR would have been better!

As for dust you can remove them by using photoshop & "the tampon of duplication" (I don't know what's the english for this tool). And for dust on your lens, try to take them out with a soft paintbrush.

I believe that's the "Spot Healing Brush Tool".

keep em coming! that first set is really nice and serene and to be honest i like the tilt of the fourth one. helps the foreground mood.
