So, how are these two? They were taken in Florence.

on this one I played a little bit to get the wall black and leave the reflection on the windows. They're seen from outside, I found it pretty...poetic, so to say :)





and now to you: what do you think?

[edited to change images, since the watermark was found so disturbing, and I had a couple of seconds to change it :)]

I tend to like to push the darker parts down into the black too, but I would have liked to see a little detail down there. I love the composition, and what I can see is lovely.

The ridiculously large copyright statements are SO distracting that I cannot even begin to describe how tacky it makes the pictures. And I mean this in a constructive way. Don't do that to your work. Seriously. It's messy, cheap and degrades what would otherwise be better pictures.

i think they are pretty boring and have no detail along with the extremely obviouse use of rule of thirds in the first one.

haha, I had no time to set the watermarking software when I processed these two ^^" sorry if it bothers you so much - but if it's somehow comforting they're never that big :)
