It's a nicely framed shot, plenty of interest with an old world feel to it. The point is whether one likes the processing and I feel that it's that which you don't like.

ray · 04-02-2008, 20:56

Yes probably stephano it looks a tad blurred to me, i may be wrong but i hope its ok for me to have my say thank's...Ray

No worries, that's why we put images up, for comments - good or bad

I'm trying to figure these out. I don't dislike them, but they look like HDR or have had a lot of boost to shadow levels and saturation - see the church sign in #1 and the red door and the rainwater pipe in #3. The effect is almost like a painting rather than a photo.

What did you do?

Rob Barron · 05-02-2008, 00:00

These are not over-sharpened but they have had some kind of artistic treatment done to them. It might be a Find Edges related filter, not sure. Having said that, I like the effect it has given them, they are very interesting John. But then, I adore Haworth having lived there so would never dislike shots from there LOL.

Want to tell us what treatment you gave this? It has given a very interesting look that I find quite appealling.

Cheers,
Rob

Is it our old friend Lucis Art?

I really like these and the Photoshop ? processing and would be very pleased if they were mine. But as others have said each to their own taste.

If I am going to be picky re No. 3 it is a shame about the sky reflections in the name board but I know that you do not have much choice about where to take that shot from.

Thanks Ray, no offence taken.
Everyone has their own idea of what makes a good photograph, it’s all down to personal preference. You’ve said what you think and I’m cool with that.

Thanks to everyone else for the comments. Processing was LucisArt. I used that because as it was a grey, overcast day, I thought it would bring the colours out more.
I accept that they might not be to everyone’s taste, but that’s life.

**Dabhand16** · 05-02-2008, 10:53

I like them very much John

When I first discovered LA, many thought I was overdoing it, but I do like the effects it can produce. The degree to which you apply it can result in many variations on a theme.

I've seen some good shots from this place that have had minimal processing. Your shots are just as valid for me, and do give a different perspective. I'd be well pleased with them.
