Lovely series, Damian. Its such an evocative place to visit, day or night :D

I like 2 & 3 Damian.
2 for the expossure and path leading into the picture and 3 for the orientation and fg interest,although i would crop 15% off the top,its a nice picture.

[dewmuw]

Thanks Trevor and Dimitri. Could you be more specific about the cropping? ;)

Don't mention the war! (Quote from Fawlty Towers) :D
Great series of shots Damian, from daylight to darkness.
The barracks lit up in the night time shots are wonderful, good work, well done.

[dewmuw]

Thanks Tony. I'd passed the barracks a few times in the past but never stopped to appreciate them.

[Mike Bell]

3 and 6 are my favourites though I agree with Dimitri - take a bit off the top.

[dewmuw]

Thanks Mike. Do you think 15% or 16%? :D

[Dimitri_V]

Thanks Trevor and Dimitri. Could you be more specific about the cropping? ;)

NO! NO! NOT 16%. Has to be 15% - like Dimitri said! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Dimitri_V]

[dewmuw]

LOL! Thanks Dimitri and Mike. Is that 15% a government take? ;)

[Dragonfli Spirit]

Personally - I'd like to see it with 14%... just my 2 pence worth tho ;)
