Hi,
I am going to submit 5 images for an article submission in a theme I have never shot before.
Being a motorsport photographer it, was nice to walk around a peacefull park this evening shotting things that don't move!

I took my 20D, Sigma 24-70 and Circular polarizer, and just walked around shooting what ever looked nice. I wasn't able to carry the tripod so everything was shot handheld with iso at least 400.
I need to submit these articles by tomorrow morning and can't cut it down to the requred 5 !

Any advice would be appreciated.
Oh and BTW, considering this was in London, I was amazed how clean/pretty it was.

I dont have a brief apart from 'pictures of the park'

Not bad at all Rich. My thoughts are that #2 and #6 could do with a sight levels or curves tweak to make them pop a little more. #2 is strongly symmetrical (with nice clouds), so to emphasise the symmetricality, I would be tempted to crop some of the left of the photo to strengthen the look. #5 and #7 are my favourites from the selection.

I like 3 the most.


I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade. -Yeats
