Re: Gas Works Park
Great work Paul. I can see a lot of potential here. A couple of comments if I may.
# 1 I feel is a bit too tight on the sides and also maybe a tad at the bottom. Not enough room for the gas works to breath in the image and the background competes for attention.
#2 needs some lens distortion correction and that will also crop some of the foreground. I like what you are attempting but there is not a lot of interest in the foreground and some minor cropping won’t hurt. I do like the idea of the path leading into the image. Opening up the shadow details will lighten the gasworks here and make them stand out as the subject.
# 3 and 4 work very well for me. I like the framing and perspective of these two. Maybe #4 needs to be centred to show a symmetrically balanced image.
Overall a really good series on this location and, as you say, a better day might help.

Re: Gas Works Park
Ahh, thank you Peter. I knew I was seeing some issues and some were the same as you pointed out....others I could not put my finger on the problem. I have had these under study for half the day and am coming up with ideas for a return trip. Now to match time with weather!

Re: Gas Works Park
Brilliant subject matter.
I'd be tempted, like Chris, to be thinking in B & W.

Re: Gas Works Park
Thanks guys, when I first saw the scene I saw B&W possabilities. However I think most just looked a little flat. When I re shoot I hope to correct that. I really need a better sky. I also need to bring up the detail in the structures with some better light, then I think they could be worthy.
