Everybody gave you such positive comments, I feel a bit bad to nitpick... :embrass:
First of all, I'd like to give you 2 thumbs up for pictures #1 and #7. I really like how you captured that rare opportunity in #1, and also your exposure control too. Well done.
For #7 you got a nice composition of the "runway lights" which I'd been struggling with ever since I've been to the barrage.
The not-so-good points are mainly to do with the fact that there are too many elements in each photograph, that nothing in the photo leads you in and draws your attention. #5 is the rare exception. The pathway draws you in and leads you towards the flyer. However, this brings me to my second point, which is the other distracting elements.
Unfortunately you went to the barrage after some mega event (I think it was the water festival.... I was there too), hence there are lots of chairs/tables/stands all around. I junked pretty much all my wide angle shots of the barrage that day, except for those on the roof top.
#10 has a nasty flare at the 9 o clock position.
#8 has too much dark empty space on the right third.
Overall I think it was still a really good series. All your 10 shots are sharp, well-exposed and colour-balanced. A thumbs up to you! Perhaps we can go shoot the barrage (again) together. Do drop me a PM I've organised a newbies shoot at Barrage before.
