Hi Paul,
Gorgeous shot, great use of this lens. I'm particularly impressed with the film you've used here... the colours work well with the feeling of the scene.
Great work, well done

Hi Hadi,

This is a very impressive photo... sure, the quality isn't great and there's plenty of colour noise, but the whole thing still just works.
I did a b&w conversion mostly for myself, curious to see how well the gorgeous red reflections would work... I think it works well, but not as well as the original.

TFS, Lewis

Hi there Brian,
Thanks for the feedback on my Peep! photo... it's one of my favourites :)
Great shot here... I don't know if you're familiar with Steve McCurry, if not I'd suggest you check him out, he really is one of the greats. If you go to stevemccurry.com and visit India, photo 5, then that's what this shot reminds me of!
Nicely captured, well done :)

Thanks, Lewis

Hi David,

I love the PL effect... it really makes this shot.
Very imposing and impressive.
Well captured.

Hi Marina,

I like this shot, looks like a very relaxing place :)
What I wasn't keen on was all of the foreground... I tried to make it more serene by removing the foreground and just leaving the girl sat out in the water... I also converted to B&W in the WS.

Thanks for sharing :)

Lewis.

Hello Patrick!
Great composition and angle... a real shame about the over-sharpening! I'll let you off as you've already explained to linask :)
TFS, Lewis.

Hi Alessandro,
This is an interesting shot... it looks half-HDR and half-not. Certainly heavily manipulated but I'm in two minds about it.
On the one hand, I doubt it would work without the effects; but on the other, I think it needs more work... and by that I don't mean more halos, more extreme colours and other nasty HDR effects.
Interesting concept... but I'm waiting on some more to make my mind up :)

Hi Alex,

This is a really nice shot, but I see much more potential in it. I spent ten minutes doing a workshop but then found you didn't have workshops enabled for this photo! Is there any chance you could enable it and I will upload my version :)
Great PoV, and I love the man at the top that adds some scale to the shot. Nicely done.

Lewis.
