No is the reply.

I have changed one of the photos.

^Oh dear. What will the independent adjudicator say about that?

... and changed the order too! :)

It still boils down to the best. Am I a judge? Hell, no!

I am not any different than any other TD poster who is allowed to post their opinion.

Should be fun. :)

nice pictures machangezi, esp the 3rd one.

photoshopped to fukkery.

I prefer the second one. Do you have a raw at high res? Shit I'd nearly buy that.

Weird. My fave was the first. Isn't it strange how different people see (& like) different things?

all 3 are good, but i like the last one the best.

not sure if it really captures Asia though.

My last entry. An unusual Bangkok Street Scene. Nature reclaiming a sidewalk.

Machangezi,

Really, really nice stuff. Beautiful composition, great chromaticity and contrast control. Wonderful subject matter. I stand in awe.

Thanks very much, bustak. I am sure as hell, you'll soon come up with something great. You know that AE-1 program is a killer mate.

All are taken in Asia. The last one through shutter control cord. I had to leave the shutter open for 28 mins to give it that artistic touch.

I believe you that it's in Asia.

It's really good, but it could be anywhere.

looks a bit like West Wales.

Do you have a link to anymore, flickr or somewhere?

Good that it at least reminds you of Wales. :)

I don't have one but will try to find one. This is one of those "Unseen Thailand" spots. Known it from one of the Thai magazine that was promoting unusual places.

Cute.

Pathetic. Not the shot, but the drawing of glasses onto a dog.

That's what locals in me area do for time pass, unfortunately.
