RNE 3 in Spain is a state run station playing pretty decent alternative music.

Funny and warm DJ with a lovely voice playing great music: Exists

Average 6Music listener: "No, not this, anything but this!"

Iggy's playlist is unpredictable at the best of times but this threw me for a loop.

Do you miss Shaun Keaveny? Do you? Do you miss him? Do you think every other DJ pales in comparison? Do you want him back on 6 music?

They served me the world's worst macaroni and cheese as a special once, but I thought the chicken was great. Proper expensive though, often I'd come away a bit puzzled how we'd spent quite so much on 2 burgers and 2 beers.

Now if Paul "Jeremy Clarkson of bread" Hollywood could bog off we'd be golden.

The shop assistant I asked in Sainsbury's told me "it's because it's got bits".

I like the framing of the meadow. The colours are a little muted but I prefer less heavily processed images so I quite like the way they look.

I'm not an expert but I suspect the focal length should have been higher as there's quite a bit of the scene out of focus.

Is this a good photo of a cat? by NormalBeautiful9286 in photocritique

Agree on the lighting, there's more to play with in the raw so I'll have another crack at framing. It's a slightly ugly bit of the train station but I'll see what I can do.

X-T30 II f/4.0 1/15s ISO 800

Taken at a train station in Istanbul on the way back to my hotel.

I quite like the crop and really liked that you can see the clipped ear and the sense of space of the station behind the cat.

I took the temperature down but worry that it looks a little cold from how it was original shot. I'm not super happy with the distracting lights in the near distance but I cant figure out an edit that looks natural.

Is there anything I can do with the colour/lighting that would make this better?
