Thought I'd try doing some shots like I used to when I first got my hands on a dslr. Was a nice refreshing change to the norm. :)

C&C always welcome.

Hi Mark
I love the #3, the bird silhouette - it's simple, but unmistakable.
Well done. :D

great stuff Mark! nothing wrong with your PJ stuff but it's welcome change :)

#1 does it for me due to its abstractness.

The last shot beautifully illustrates one of the main elements of compostion...shape. Do you mind if I use the image as a training aid?
