With the first one, the blown highlight draws me away from the bridge and the rest of the subject matter, and keeps doing so despite my attempts to refocus, so it doesn't do much for me I'm afraid.
If you could PS it out or something I'd love the shot!

These are pretty cool. I love the golden reflection in the water of the 1st, but it would probably work a little darker as well.
The second looks a little oversaturated, which seems to be your style, but I think it is a touch oversaturated for me as well. Most of your pics sort of walk that fine line which is good I think. BTW I'm moving to the West End. THinking about joining the legendary West End Photographic society. Have you heard of them? Do you go down there much?

Posted: Tue Apr 19, 2005 1:55 pmI like the first one... a bit postcard-ish for my taste, but I do like it.
The second one is too saturdated for my liking... I feel my eye keeps attacking small bits of red in the background as opposed to looking at the whole of the image.

Posted: Tue Apr 19, 2005 2:56 pmYou worked the shadows too hard in the first on I feel... to the point the colour noise detracts from the image IMHO.
Second is extremely saturated. Too rule of thirdish to me. I'd have preferred a crop leaving out all the featureless water.

love the first!
Second one I love the colour saturation, my opinion I suppose. Like MCWB has pointed out though, more of the saturated sky would've looked better than so much water in the frame, from my point of view.
Personally I would've Photoshopped the word "hatsu" out, detracts from the true subject I think.
Otherwise GOOD JOB!
