|  | | | I like the last three. There's something about the first one that I don't like, I just don't know what it is. Anyways, nice work.

| | | | 1) Me likes. Though I have a thing for control panels.
2) I'm not really sure. Doesn't really do anything for me, but I don't think there's anything wrong with it.
3) Love that shot, but personally I think it would look better without that (I'm assuming,) spool of cable. It just throws things off and distracts you from the door.
4) I like this one. The perspective is nice. The two pipes going into the ground look like claws. RAWR!

Thanks for the comments so far!
I know what you mean about that cable spool, it was a really restricted space and I couldn't compose a shot without it in, and it was sooo huge I couldn't easily move it out of the way so settled for keeping it in to perhaps crop out later. As it went I didn't crop it out. So yeah, I agree with you on the distraction factor of it, might not be as bad if it weren't for the red cable! LOL!
Cheers,
JD

Yeah, the red cable really does throw things off. All the colours are nice and earthy and then BAM. Red! I don't know if cropping it would work either, cause if you cropped out the entire spool you'd chop off the nice wall beside the door. It might work. Care to give it a try and post the results?

Yeah, that's the reason I didn't crop it as I didn't want to loose that nice bit of wall to the right of the door. A step in the right direction? A quick cloning out of the red cable?
Not sure?
Anyway, thanks for the comments Lexi!
Much appreciated.

| | | | A polarizer might have helped to reduce those distracting reflections on the control panel. Otherwise, I can't say anything bad about this nice set.

That, in my opinion, is one hundred times better.
Nice!

Doesn't work very well. Distortion is best fixed before the shutter.

true enough, but PTlens is a distant second, and sometimes, 2nd place ain't all that bad (especially when you can't just swap in a pro-level lens... or maybe when your pro-quality glass still distorts at wide angles... not everyone is down on buying and carrying primes... and even then, the ultra-wide primes aren't that great at being perfectly rectilinear.)

| | | | the control panel is full of potential
try zooming in to get patterns out of the toggles and switches
my main problem is the way you lighted it..its very uneven
the second is just a hohum hallway
the last two are great
I'd love to see another version of the third with TAO and a portion of the machinery below the word
I'd also like to see what it'd look like without the huge round wooden thing
as lexi says the pipes do look like claws
and I think you've got some great pics here

Thanks for all the feedback everyone!
Pirate, funny you should mention the above, of all the pics I like the mixing chamber one the most, even with it's faults. I tried a tighter crop of it the other day, losing the cable spool entirely. It makes it a different image of course, but here's what it looks like.
You get the impression it wasn't an easy task to get into the Mixing Chamber don't you?! LOL!!! Also quite worrying, that top bolt on the door there, why would they want to lock people in the Mixing Chamber?

| | | | I like both versions but what i like about the cropped version is how suddenly your eye is drawn to all the texture on the wall and door
you can almost feel the texture
the other one gives more of a sense of place and context which is nice too
further cropping right down to the maze of bolts and doorknobs and switches would be very interesting too
frankly you;ve got amazing subject matter that needs to be shot in every conceivable angle and multiple crop versions
I read a book in which there was a painting on a wall that could simply be leapt into
it was a dangerous rocky mountain edge with a thin trail and a grorge down below
but the journey and the path intrigued the character in the book and in he jumped
I feel that way about wanting to pass beyond the borders of your photo to follow the lines along the wall and find out what lies beyond
(of course I am sure you can visualize the layout of the grounds and buildings but to tell me would be no fun)
