1)
Good color. Blown highlights. Wish it was straighter or more angled. WB is off too.
2)
Good concept, needs to be sharper though. Higher saturation would be preferable too.
3)
Don't like it at all: Flat colors, lacking composition, lacking subject.

I like the first one, but not the second two.

I'm not going to say much of anything about the pics because it looks like you risked your life to shoot them. Damn that floor is soupy! What were you shooting with?

Just when I thought I was out... they pulled me back in.

Actually, I love the second and third shot.

Well, the #3 definitely lack contrast and seems to be overexposed. Anyway, with a little PS, you can get something nice of this shot.

I took the liberty of messing around with your art. I guess that you won't be very angry... Well if you are... I'll remove it right away! Anyway I over did it a little, just to make my point!

Good work anyway!

3.

I agree your pictures could use some level ajustments and an increase in saturation, just like angeloks did.

I agree with saturation and contrast as stated above.

Also, the second picture would be better if it were entirely vertical, not shot at an angle.

i've been erring on the side of caution with saturation and contrast; i shoot with the in-camera processing to -5 contrast, as this allows me an extra half-stop or so of dynamic range, but i haven't really been bringing it back in post. i'm always worried that i'm going "too far" with the photoshop.

also. the second picture, ironically, should be entirely different.

here's a (separate) shot of the same area, without post-process, from a different angle, with context in mind:

excellent. #3 was overexposed for sure, and the contrast in the subject was very much lacking... i was hoping to show that glow from the lower level that's dead in the middle of your remix, and i guess that i just didn't push it far enough. i'm always concerned that i'm pushing the digital post-processing "too far"... again, i'm just really cautious with the photoshop, because i'm just learning the tools, and don't wanna "fake it" too much.

thanks to everyone for the criticism, hopefully i'll have some new shit in the next couple of days.
