Enjoying that new lens as well I see. I will be passing trough Melbourne later in the year giving me food for thought and places to visit.

[Grumpy John]

Feel free to contact me when you arrive, I would be happy to escort you around.

Again, very good shots. #1 is a perfect example for use of bracketing to really show the textures up on those bricks. It wouldn't look like HDR. You could do it with the single exposure using curves for a good effect because it's easy to select the bricks for a mask. It's easy in ACR lifting the shadows to about 85%. I think the brick arch is a great feature (and focus) for the image.

Thanks mate, once again very little PP just a few tweaks in ACR. After I cull all the dead wood from the outing I will have a decent crack at some of these images.

Thanks for that John. Looking forward to seeing more.
