Hi there Lee,
This image is made of around 15 shots(
http://andrewbrooksphotography.com/WillyLottsCottage.htm ), there were quite
a few tourist around and a path running through it so I used some images to
cover where they were, and then a much darker set of expousers to keep nice
detail in the sky. I've done quite a few shots in this style, this city
scape is bult of over 200 shots, took about 3 weeks to put together(

and here's another few.

It's kind of a long winded methord of building an image, but it gives me
loads of control over how the image works...
Cheers for the feedback folks

I agree with Peeter, collectively this is a fine group of images.
Some thoughts:
Andrew Brooks - Willy Lott's Cottage
I'm interested in 'I used a number of different shots to make the finished
image...' It would be interesting to know how many total images combined
to make this image. It it lovely and what I particularly like is how the
viewer is drawn back to the cottage. Good work on the clouds, they add
quite a lot to the image.
Trevor Cunningham - discontinuity
I'm not sure what I'm looking at but what I'm guessing is curtains turned
sideways. Very well done capturing the tones of the fabricwork. Pleasing
if a bit mysterious.
Emily L. Ferguson - High tide/wind
Emily, your work never disappoints and this is no exception. I LOVE the
wave crash thing happening above the level of the ground. This image
screams POWER to me. The only thing I might change is to crop in from the
left and get rid of that distracting black object (a person maybe) up on
land.
D.L. Shipman - Inland Waterway
It says inland waterway so I have to assume this is some sort of a boat
but to me I see a combine crawling across central Kansas at harvest time
and it brings back very fond childhood memories. Wonderful capture of
tones.
Alan Zinn - Ok, people line up, blue, red, blue, red...
I have to give this image my two thumbs up of the week. I often notice
this kind of color pattern in cars when I'm driving but you've seen it in
people when there are so many other things fighting for your eyes'
attention. Excellent.
