I think I managed 2 weeks last year but I'm determined to see this one through.

Oh well, first week.
I originally went down to the beach with the intention of coming back with a decent beach hut shot. As I was waiting for the people to clear from my shot I took a few of the new flats directly on the seafront and managed to get the seagull at just the right spot.

Good start :) I really like the contrast in colours, as well as the angles shown. Feel they work well. I would maybe straighten it a little so the drainpipe is truly verticle, but thats just me being fussy!

:thumbs:
 
I like this image too... The gull just adds to it... However ive been caught out too many times with overuse of a poleriser too making the sky go a funny grey dense blue colour!
 
Hi Stuart,

I Like the image, the contrast between the sky and the building is good and strong and the alternative of a normal washed out winter sky is not worth the effort of taking the immage.

I would consider cropping off half the sky above the gull, i.e. if there is 2in above the gull crop off 1in..

Good start to the year though..

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I think I'll straighten this up this evening and repost. It was late last night!;)

Also, I don't have any filters on the lens so what you see is what you get, apart from a very slight WB adjustment. It was an amazing afternoon and the sky really was like that.
 
Like it , a very classic style of architecture shot and very nice to have the gull included also to add some interest tot eh sky portion. Good luck with the rest of your 52. :thumbs:
 
Thanks guys.:thumbs:

I'll be sure to leave some feedback on some of the other shots this evening.
