Vivitar 28 mm f2.5

That first one is pretty nice, Don. Wish there were a little more room on left even at expense of a little less on right as long as you could keep that sun in.

Third one is pretty nice too. I think you needed a graduated uv though. I already know you like the processing.

For me the second and fourth are lacking subject matter.

I'd like to see the last one in 'capture a photographer;

Thanks Frog

The work shows a good sense of composition.

I don’t know the reasons but there is a little room for improvement. As example in the capture with the light house, the halos have an adverse effect on an otherwise excellent capture.

I like to slightly over expose images. That way the highlights are not blown out, and I can augment detail in the shadows with Photoshop. The technique I use is related to the ETTR or "Expose To The Right" approach for using digital cameras. See Exposing to the right - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thanks Justin. I will say it was very dark.
