Boy oh boy! You've gotta back-off that editing tool a wee bit! The first shot had me reaching for the sick bucket & I don't normally suffer from motion sickness. Shot 2 is similar & 3/4 have been fiddled with too much also.
The context & framing is excellent. Any chance we could see the 'originals'?

Great framing Alan :thumbs:

Did wonder if I needed a trip to Specsavers, though :whistle:

Thanks for posting :thumb:

I wouldn't say too much - a little dark in the shadows for my liking, but this isn't anywhere near over editing. The missed focus on number 1 and motion blur on number 2 don't make them too nice to look at, but they're not over edited.

Number 3 really nice, well composed and sharp. Well done, always like seeing the Atlantique!

Guys, thanks for the feedback. I’ve done a few minor adjustments to 2, 3 and 4. 1 isn’t the best, but with a fair bit of heat haze to deal with I didn’t think it was a complete disaster.

Al.
