2nd Print Competition Entries

Below are my entries for Monday's print competition at the Cambridge Camera Club. I can't make it that evening due to a work trip Mon-Wed, but Gareth will let me know what happened...

I held over the first image "Bath Crescent" from the last competition, submitting "Window and Chair" instead (which got a First), so fingers crossed for this one.


The next image is one from the potential Deal Pier portfolio. I have abandoned this portfolio, but this image was quite positively received on the blog, so I'm going to submit it.



You may have commented on these images before, but would welcome any thoughts, esp from Adam and Colin...

Cheers
Ivan

Bath Crescent in Black and White

Converted into mono from an original digital file. Cropped to remove foreground cars and street furniture. Used File/transform to straighten verticals. Swapped original dull sky for more interesting one (before converting to mono). Final levels, curves, dodge, burn etc to achieve a nice, quite dramatic image.
