These are a few of my first attempts at landscape so bare with me!
We've had a few shows of freak snow this year in Tokyo...It started today on my way home coming from downtown so I took some pictures on my walk home from the station :]

like the fact that you shot in b/w color would not have done justice

My thoughts exactly. I did some in color and hated them more than these ones.

I like the composition in #6, but the colors feel weird to me.

Ya I thought I liked the colors when I did that but I keep looking back at it and I don't like it. I'll mess with the colors more later.

The middle feels a bit blown out in #10, but it's really nice.

i really like the colours you've been getting with your new stuff Gentile. they remind me pictures from the 70's that have faded over time.

I think its a style thing, but those highlights hurt my eyes. fun cross-processed approach though

I agree with the highlighty-eye-painy.
I especially like #10 with the birdy.

I really like #17, especially the colors (purple! :D ) Maybe some slightly darker shadows?
Gentile

Thank you! I will try out some darker shadows :]
