    I like this one from Longshanks' stream, it's so much work to do these trails (not to mention cold!) so you have to appreciate the effort put in. Also the colours are great and the trails give a nice composition.

    You have some great automotive shots but I really like this one. Excellent panning shot, i like how you captured the driver's eyes.

    Fantastic! So hard to choose from all the great ones. I love the crop and the very engaging eye-contact

    Oh your shots are wonderful! What a wonderful idea for a thread - I don't think I've ever seen you work here before. I'm not usually a sucker for baby photos, but these are lovely :)

    I loved the extreme close up, and who can resist babies mouths :)

    I love anything with those long exposure light effects... really really lovely. And I like how it continues out of the frame... makes me think there's more happening!!!

    I don't think I ever saw this view before. And I like the oldish / grainy look of it which adds to the b&w. And here again I like the light.

    I like the colour in this, the fence, the sand, and grass and the deep blue sky, the way the path leads you up to the sky and to what could be over the other side. Like the way it composed, good balance to it

    I love the vintage feel to this picture, and the red tones and the crazy lines and scratches, it reminds me of something you'd see in an old photo album. Really neat effects.

    (pm me and tell me how you did it!)

    looked through alot of the images the best of the vintage feel ones i thought was this.

    other good ones were 'Tennessee Aquarium', 'red clay' (An old american house), 'tim exile', 'Ring, Co. Cork'.

    This shot really jumped out at me . Firstly because I really want to visit Mostar someday and secondly the beautiful muted colours, very atmospheric. It looks like a textured layer but I think that's just the light. Lovely composition too,

    Great composition. A really cool Aviation Photo with the 737 above the T Vasi. You should put this shot up as a Stock Image.

    This one stood out from thumbnails in the stream, and I liked it just as much when I viewed it fullsize. I love the simple clean composition, it would have been good without hte palm, but with it it's even better.

    corcai that was taken this summer !!

    sorry for the ot
    we did a day trip from a town near dubrovnik on a bus we met a muslim guide who brought us to the muslim side of the town which has been restored some what the christian side is still a bullet riddled waste land as far as i could see and i heard on the news recently that the government is collapsing that there is a possibility of war erupting again,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,079 ✭✭✭xia


    I like quite a lot of your pictures, gandalf. Well, at least on the pages I had a look at;)

    But I decided for this one:
    3801223567_e73fcba85e.jpg

    I like it because on one hand it makes me want to know what's there in the dark behind the trees and on the other hand I think I better don't want to know;) And it leads very nicely into the dark at the 'end' of the picture.

    My flickr again ...and now I'll just watch for a while!

    not familiar with how to stick the picture up . but i love this one. the water seems powerful yet peacful. and i love the effect you have on a lot of your photos that make them look almost painted with the vibrant colours.

    (good help anyone who has to find a good pic in my stream ha ha a lot of them are only expirimental)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,393 ✭✭✭AnCatDubh


    I like this one by Martron (and I didn't have to dig too far);

    E0C60F26EC474212B6AD9790D83172CB-500.jpg

    Love the colours and drawing the best out of sunrise/set. Love the golden suns rays on the side of the tower. The blues of the skies to the golden oranges of the sun's position and greens on the ground are great. Quite beautiful.

    Right then - me again fishing for complements ;)

    I'm a bit of a sucker for sunsets and this one is a beaut. Perfect timing to catch the sun between the bridges, yet leave a glowing arc above them. Fabulous purple in the clouds which in turn have a fantastic shape to them. The reflection of the sun on the water draws your eye to the centre of the pic. Great shot.

    Liam's photostream reads almost as a visual blog with little gems spread throughout including a number of portraits like the one above. I really liked this portrait. The back lighting and side lighting are handled very nicely and the colours - background and foreground - are complementary. All in all, IMO, a wonderful portrait. Well done.

    My pix.ie stream should anyone care to comment.

    So many great shots to choose from but this one is a winner for me. Fantastic use of framing and the colours are just great.
    The two boats may be considered a distraction but I think they add an extra bit of interest. Great shot!

    Really like this photo. It's dark and moody, just like how I feel right now haha. The lighting is lovely, I get drawn in from the bottom left of the images, nicely over to the middle right and then up. Nice capture!!
