I normally like to give crits, though this is the third of your theads I've looked at and well, inspiring is what comes up.

Are you a pro, or just a serious amatuer? Shall certainly keep an eye for any of your threads ;]

[John.D]

Amazing stuff. I'll comment in more detail tomorrow, but seriously, just WOW.

[Dr Caligari]

Thanks guys.No Pro here :-)
I studied photography some 15 years, but that's it.
Always been busy with gfx, photos and layout in my free time.

[John.D]

As I said yesterday, your stuff is fantastic. Do you do any colour work, or do you focus mainly on black and white?

My favourites would be 'Railway 3', 'Stones', 'Road Ends', and the Fist shot. My overall favourite though would have to be the windmill. I simple love this shot :)

[Dr Caligari]

I try do do more colour-as you'll see in some other threads here- but i always loved B&W the most :-)

[Leukeh]

I love Barbed Wire and Fist the most - not sure why, but they just seem the most striking to me!

I love B&W photos the best but can never really make them look this good...

[Gentile]

I really like the bicycle one.
This makes me want to go and take B&W photos again...hm.

[DIGme]

Poor little rabbit ! :rolleyes: Yeark !

Very beautiful black&white !!!!

Just in some of them, i think the sky is "eating" the photo.
I explain in railway I & III : You've got a very good dynamic with the electric wire. May be with a sky a little less present, you should have a very graphic photo ! So it's a personal point of view of course.
Idem for Station 13, this building is very interesting and the sky seems to fall above it.

Very very good work, beautiful control in black & white.
Hard to choose only one photo! My favourites : railway I / road ends II / windcatcher / spoon

Thanks for the walk :p :)

Hi
Is this digital or did you use film. I have used Kodak Recording Film and used ortho sheet film used in copy cameras and I like the effect got here. I have started to go digital and using Photoshop now that I have the time since I am retired now and taking a second look at photography and no longer have to worry about working and paying the bills and surviving in this world.

[ErbTheLawnGnome]

I'm very impressed... what camera were these shot with, and did you do any editing to them?

Your work is just gorgeous. Love the vignetting present, love the very direct approach. The skies are beautiful in most of your images, particularly in windcatcher and bridge, in my opinion. However, in some of the earlier images, they do tend to take over... a little over-the-top. Almost looks like a negative in railway ii.
