I love the 3rd one. Really really love it. And the 1st and last one.

It's a shame the Cathedral is looking washed out in the 2nd 'cause the colours in the foreground are so nice.

I like the textures in the 4th one, but it doesn't feel like it has a context ... but maybe my screen is too small :P

You've made me really wanna go back now!

I actually really like what's happened there. Gives it a bit of aerial perspective. One thing I'd do on that shot is tone down the vignetting. It's banding quite badly on my screen at least. Otherwise I'd leave it as is. Toning it up would make the entire thing too busy.

The third one is a bit 'meh', but the others are nicely atmospheric pieces, although I'd be tempted to drop the washed out sepia/duo tone thing and present everything in subtle colour.

cheers for the feedback lads, im only back and i want to go back AGAIN . on the vatican one i confess i dont see too much of an issue with the vignetting. it seems subtle-ish like.again it could be my screen!
the poster photo. im not sure about the tones ive used , the sepia type....

I wouldn't like the glare and light pollution in the first, and I'm not a fan of the jig-saw puzzle look in the last one, but the ones in between are very nice. Especially like the Window shot

To me they seem a little generic and clichéd for photos of the "old world" europe. I see more the processing than the image content. They just seem like holiday snaps that I could have seen on anyone else's flickr/blog that had visited there, sorry.

Going somewhere doesn't have to mean showing a picture that you were there.

I mean, I was in Japan last year and this photo made me think more of a favela more than Tokyo, one of the most modern cities in the world.

cheers for the feedback on the actual photos.But im really ****ing angry at you presuming im posting these here just because i visited Rome. Ive actually not taken any photos of ANY worth in the past few months and being im rome got me to take out the camera again. I posted them here for C&C because I am a total amateur looking to improve by getting USEFUL feedback. And judging by the response this thread received you are correct in saying that they are plain old holiday snaps.So I need to get my finger out in that sense. But again I say i didnt post these as some sort of d!ck waving contest of oh look where ive been.
Good day sir.
