Decent stuff, but you seriously need to get rid of the barrel distortion. CS2 > Filter > Distort > Lens Correction, especially on #2 and #4. Same filter could also help you at least partially straighten out your perspective in #1 and #5. Your old favourite is probably the best one of the bunch.

yep.

2,4,5,7 and 8 are awsome. 4 could use some croping of the left side but for the most part these shots are great. they have a pritty good balance of contrasts and they are pleasing to look at. One thing that could help you pics is i notice on a couple like 2,4 and 5 the picture needs to be rotated because its ascew. but with a few agustments it would be super awsome and not just awsome!

avast ye matties there is a squall aloof. Brace the jib and batten down the hatches! yarrrrr!!!

The bike with its rust "imprint" on the ground below is just great. I always like sets like this but the bike one really did it for me. Good find.

1-It's a nice idea for a composition, but the subject seems a little gray and underexposed-either convert to B+W and increase contrast or wait for better weather?

2-I like the hallway, but there is a fairly obnoxious element? ledge? on the bottom. Did you shoot this through a window?


3-This really doesn't do anything for me.


4-This is cool, the paint is peeling where it was applied with a brush. Crop/center to door as the paint there is a lot more interesting then the paint around it.


5-I like this

6-It feels forced with two subjects posed like this- possible to take it more frontally or from the side with a more selective DOF?


7-That red stuff is pretty cool-that has more of my attention than the perspective.

8-Rust rust rust rust lust

some addt'l post-processing per your suggestions. let me know what you think:


used a differently bracketed photo and brightened & pumped saturation:



only frame i shot, so i cropped to remove the desktop:



different shot, different crop, more saturation & sharpening:




leave the gun. take the cannoli.

1-Better, I think, but still fairly gray.

2-I really liked the horizionzal motion that the original had now that I can see it cropped. . . .it might be the crop of the hallway to the left or a combination of that and the desk.

3-much better, maybe crop it in even more, esp on the "in" medallion? That is specifically where the paint swirls like crazy.
