    First off the image:
    haze_by_superflyninja-d3hafhd.jpg

    The image is lacking something for me and i cant pin down what. Im not sure if it is the crop/framing itself or the PP....any help would be very much appreciated :D
    In regard to the current PP i feel the light in the image is quite airy and soft so i did some standard some PP but none to bring out contrast or colour ( if i tried to bring up the vibrance/saturation areas of the building start turning yellow).

    Where are you trying to go with it ? It does nothing for me. Flicking around the image, a motorcycle. Some parking ticket sign or something. A line of parked motorcycles. I don't think there's any PP that can lift this, you might just have to chalk it down to experience and move on.

    I have a few saved actions in photoshop and I think one of them would suit this shot, do you mind if I try it?

    there's too much wall and the main focus, the motorbike on the right, is really boring looking

    the lighting is lovely, but nothing nice being lit up by it

    that would be great cheers :D

    what i was going for with this was a calm summers evening basically. i think its one of those where actually being there was so atmospheric and looking at the photo "cold" a lot seem to have been lost in translation....or pp....hehehe :D

    Maybe it speaks to you personally, maybe that's good enough, if it takes you back to that time and place, and reminds you how you felt. Sometimes we worry too much about affecting other people with our pictures, sometimes it's good enough if we just affect ourselves?

    Ok well, here goes 2 versions.... It is reminding me of a shot I saw long ago so I am going to try something else on it in a minute, the second of these being the one I prefer though.

    it's lacking any sort of point of focus and is too busy without the business offering anything.

    hmmmm thanks. I do prefer the first one though.
    I do agree there isnt much focus in this image.Problem is the image is pretty much cropped in half...and the full image worked better however there is a car in the foreground...thanks for the feedback guys I actually learned something!
    I need to stop being lazy and actually think about the shots again.....
