Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Hi All, this is the Gardens we have right in the centre of town here, as we have a lot of caves around here. i got bored and went to see if there was any water flowing down into the caves as it has been wet and wild here.
Rain stopped and sun shine appeared for a bit so we stopped here to take a few pics, let me know what you think.

Cheers
John

Hi John. Very nice. I like the colours in the first one. Mt Gambier has changed since I was there last. That building with the sculpture (?) that you have captured so well, wasnt there the last time I visited.

Regards

That first one really works for me great scene and framing, that would look good printed out and the colours are so bright, any extra sat added?
