Unfortunately my GPS Track is unsufficient for a few pics that day.
I think it's Clapham Junction. South-West of London.

Tom I like how you separated the boats from the surroundings. Wonderful compositions, and the colors are amazing!

I hope this counts as a boat.  Car ferry, anyway.

Pacho: excellent treatment of the railway station. The tracks are well presented.

Tommie: scenic fishing vessels and image clarity is endearing too.

Robert, that is a picture in which the IR "treatment" actually enhances the outcome :D

Anthony: as long as it floats, it belongs here. When it doesn't float any more, it is a ship wreck. I guess it still fits the description of the thread :D


********

On a tangential line: I think these threads needs comments and interaction otherwise they just develops into sheer exhibition of one's work. Nothing wrong with images posted so far, in fact, many are marvellous, but the viewer becomes comfortably numb after a while. So folks, look and comment.

Thank you Bjørn, the sky bothers me but it was a grotty grey in real life and it the NEF, I have been tempted to graft in a nicer sky but resisted, in the interests of originality.

It is the expressed visualisation of the photographer's intention that counts, so feel free to "graft" anything you please. That being said, the best strategy still is trying to get as much as possible right in the camera - surely saves one a lot of time later in the work flow. The statement that one can always "fix something later in Photoshop" tells me the person asserting such viewpoints never will become a good photographer.
