Some B/W

Some weeks ago I was hiking about 120km through northern Germany and of course I also took a few pics Smile
I haven't processed an uploaded many yet, but I wan't some C&C

The first pic is a lot undersized for my taste, but it would blast the max. allowed length in this gallery.

All great, but #2 is stunning.

#1: Great sky&clouds but the format really doesn't work well for online viewing. Maybe try to crop a little from both sides and make it taller? And part of that hill in the bottom left is to me a bit distracting. Either include more of it or none at all. at least that's what I'd go for.

#2: Just awesome! Maybe just try to correct the leaning perspective a bit?

2 and 3 for me, very impressive work. The pano, if there were sunrays stabbing down through
the clouds, something to relieve the rather boring lighting, would have helped greatly, my opinion.

#3 is my overall fave, all is in balance there.

#2 is a great shot but somehow the B&W looks unnatural
a little bit overdone for my taste,
looks like this Silvereffex "wet rocks" filter or so ...
which filter did you use ?

#1:
+ the best i like the sky
- there's no point where the eyes could rest on ...
- from composition: I would rather see more sky or more landscape
composing in 3rds would maybe better for this shot ...
-lots of stiching errors in the skies

Cheers
Tobias

thx for honest and very productive C&C!
#2 is converted with SilverEfex but the unnatural effect is caused by a red filter (dark blues)

I like very much #2 except that in my opinion there's a little too much sharpening
If you look around the top of the tower you can see the halo.

I agree with Orio. The "sharpening" halo is much worse on the full size original (Flickr). Also the skies are littered with rectangular patterns and, in different places, white spots.

An interesting Flickr name btw.

I like number two the most, a little less sharpening would make it look even better. That lens is sharp enough as is Wink
