[QUOTE=frag4life;44842630]Great B&W photos Thaard, nice and contrasty.
But I don't really understand what's going on with the last 2 colour pics. The skies are nicely exposed but the attractions are very dark, almost silhouette like with the last. Did you edit them like this on purpose or was the lighting just too harsh?[/QUOTE]
They were like this, since the sun is right behind the carousel.

y u flip?
because i thought it looked better flipped cos photos read left 2 right and better to lead eye out of pic with nothing rather than have it search of subject

do u think it looks better not flipped

holy shit i was going to post about images being read left to right but i thought i may be thinking too deeply into it.
My idea was that this image is split into content and context, the content being the people and the context being the railway line. I think its better to read content before context first so thats why you flipped it.
what about now:

I for one think it looks much better flipped. Otherwise you get lost in the empty space to the left (as in the side with the 3/4 sign).
20th time out taking photos this year, breaking records! I've taken photos more in this 5 months than I did in the last 2/3 years.

Loving the first 4. A lot.
i feel like they're a little cramped composition wise
[editline]19th May 2014[/editline]
definitely promising stuff though

I guess it has to do with me liking longer focal lengths and not having too much stuff in the photos, I will have to try using something wider sometime, I think I'm getting a bit too comfortable using the same focal length over and over.

Every year in August some of the celebrities from Tour de France comes up here under the annual race here around in Denmark.

I keep seeing these really great summer photos and I get anxious to posting my own.
Then I see THOSE ^ and it keeps me grounded. I like it. So, here's a silly-er photo :v:

Older picture I've been a bit ambivalent about, since I shot it with the wrong aperture. I like the feel of it though.

I just had a massive favouriting spree on your flickr haha

Just impressed by how that photo looked man, it's really a great picture.

We were walking down the street to get lunch and I am not used to jaywalking yet, so I accidentally got the poles in the photo while trying not to get hit by a car. The poles were entirely unintentional, but looking back at the photo it did remind me of that one church photo of Desuh's so I decided to post it haha

I forget that crossing as and when you please isn't really allowed in the states, I am gonna break this law so much when I go over there I just know it haha! And yeah thats the photo I was thinking about!
Pedestrians still technically have the right of way in the US, but it is a crime in some places (Jaywalking, and enforced where I live). It's not like you can hit a person crossing the street and not get in legal trouble though. It's mostly difficult me because I haven't gotten used to the cars being on the left side, and the streets are so confusing

giving me hope
yeeeeeeeee
By the time you leave you'll be so accustomed to cars being on the left that you'll have the same issue back home hahaha
