Another one from the Bristol Balloon festival. I edited out some people and buildings as I found them distracting. Is that wrong?

Comments always appreciated.
I agree with Kenoh: if an element is distracting my eye from what I think the focus of the image should be, I'll often take it out. For this image, I might have even removed the radio tower on the left side of the horizon line.
I really like the black and white treatment here and how it brings out the beautiful vivid markings on the bird. Great shot!
Yeah, removing the tower is far from necessary. I see the area you're talking about now and you did a good job! I've also never seen a hot air balloon that shape before.
Definitely tourist brochure material! It's a beautiful scene.
I'm certain that doing wedding video can be a very demanding and stressful occupation but if you did just one like this you'd make your year:
Also, think of it like this. If you took two pictures on subsequent days, with the baloons in the same place, then the cars and people wouldnt be the same in both pics therefore fair game for the photoshop short back and sides IMHO... weird way of saying anything except the subject that is not permanent, or which is outwith the context (like a blue waste bin on the beach) is fair game.
I am not however into this thinning and preening models on magazine covers malarky. That is just false.
*cough* I er...don't know what you're talkin' 'bout.

I just watched this on fredmiranda. The comments are nice too, varying from envy ( I would have wanted to shoot that ) to envy ( what 29 y.o. can afford such a wedding and claim public parts of the city for it ).
One more from the woods.

I like that, really nice. You liking your Nokton Classic?
Thanks Ken. I am enjoying it. It's a beautifully made little lens and a lovely size for carrying around. Crazy small for a 1.4.
Woah! look at those colours. Is that stacked or HDR or anything? the DR of that image is incredible!
As suggested, a few mods to make it look more postcardly - included a label as well. IMHO much improved thanks to your inputs. Cheers

No just a single shot from a canon with its (what the internet want you to think) measly DR.

Then Bravo! that is very very pretty.

Wow! I would have sworn it was produced with luminosity masking!
