A couple pictures from France

[glamy]

Here are a couple images I am pretty happy with. I am happy with the way I framed the chapel (it is something I am not good at ) and with the other one for the atmosphere. Having someone sitting on the bench would have helped, I think.

Second one has a lot of potential! My suggestions are the make it a bit dreamy , maybe replace the sky or at least remove the CA and do bit of dodge and burn to make it like a fairytale which is what I would assume you saw....

I like both of them
In 1 I would take the white crossing lines out
When you look at it my eyes travel down there
But good shots any way

That second image is very nice Gerard. So green. I can see myself sitting on that bench soaking in the atmosphere for hours.

Thanks for the comments. I was in two minds about the pedestrian crossing in the first, I thought it emphasised the curve in the road and sort of lead to the chapel. Yes it was green everywhere, so much rain...

Love the colours in the 2nd one. Nice use of WA in the 1st image.

Both of these images are great. In #1 I'll be honest and say I didn't even notice the corssing until I saw the comment on it so to me it's no big deal. I was too busy admiring the rest of what the image offers. As for #2 - while I like it I'd be interested in seeing a dreamy soft focus treatment which I think may suit this.

I do like the first one (sure I've seen a similar church in the Barossa Velley) and the very first thing I did notice was the crossing - but I think it actually led my eye into the centre of the pic.

Thanks for the constructive comments, very much appreciated.
Cheers,
