Hi, just after some tips to possibly improve these sort of photos, on the first two I tried to stay fairly true to the rule of thirds, admittedly I did have to do a little cropping when post processing to get them to fit that properly.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/silencer_rh <-- my flickr gallery, if you want larger size to look at.





The last one is just something different I tried.

A very interesting image the first. Love the contrast of the flat background with the shiny silver ring and patina of the front plate.


Looks like there has been more than one missed attempt at getting the key in

Thanks for the comment Glen. I actually took the lock one by accident, I framed that and a handle in the original shot then when I looked at it afterwards thought hang on a second, I could crop that to be a much better photo.

Very serendipitous result Also like your "keep left" image on flickr

I think that the first image could be improved with a total B&W conversion, but I still like it as it is. Neither of the other two appeal.

And great as a collage.........love two nice work!

I did actually do a pure B&W version but the chrome didn't really pop...

I like the first one but the last one seems empty to me...

Yeah I wasn't so happy with it as a photo but liked how the light came through the leaves when viewed in B&W

For what is worth, I prefer the first image to the other two because it tells a simple story.
