This is a nice study. Good tones, nice mix of textures.

I'll be honest and hopefully not offend - I think you are missing some real gems with these scenes by not getting in there and looking around. Such wide shots aren't very interesting, but each of them shows glimpses of interesting things which are small or obscured. My free advice - get your shoes dirty and get in there.

I want to see that sign on the ticket box. A real photographer would have cut down the shrubs in front of it! Heheheh. Nice scene, again too sharp. You're going to get the jaggies in a scene like this by sizing it down to DPC size, but in the sky and the foreground there are all those little tiny specks caused by too much USM.

Comment by violinist123:
Hmm. There's high contrast and there's monochrome - this is pretty extreme and probably a very small audience will dig it. Don't I hate it, but it's not really working for me.

Bit too sharp. All the little white points on the sidewalk are the most glaring result of it. The subject here looks very interesting, I'm wondering if some close-in work might not yield some good shots.

beautiful composition and great colors. there seem to be some sensor dust and noise in the darker yellow tones. (does not impact my voting though)

Love the shape of the mission. I might've cropped just to the right of the lamp post. I think the square crop would really serve it nicely. ;~D Good luck.

Love the textures here. Your processing really evokes the feeling of abandonment and decay. I like it!

I relaly like the contrast and the strong shadows. There is something a little odd, though -- too much sharpening, maybe?
