WAY too oversaturated, and the gray background doesn't work for me.

Shame the rain is so light in this shot... I had to look at the splashes in the river to see evidence of rain. PP definitely takes this in the direction of digital art, and I'm not 100% sure I like it, but I think it could grow on me. The effect is certainly striking. If the sky wasn't quite so burnt out, I think this would be a very strong shot. I think it's oversharpened too much for my eyes here which detracts from the effect.

Call me anal if you like, but spelling is all part of the package. Great depiction of rain.

Wonderful, especially with nobody behind the camera. Well anticipated. Lovely light. Focusing and dof have worked out well too!

What the hell is that?! Shame about the head at the bottom right and I'd definitely remove some of the yellow from the colour balance but thanks for the opportunity to see this strange instrument and bow hold. It looks like some kind of 5-stringed mini-cello.

Wonderful collection, very emotive portrait... loads of atmosphere. Too oversharpened for my taste though.

Fantastic atmosphere, this photo really is quite special.
I could be wrong, but the texture looks like in-camera sharpening was on 0 or above... as a result the fine detail has become a little too sharp and pixelated. I prefer -2 in-camera sharpening with USM later and a little Blur to avoid that coarse bitty pixelated texture. Personally, I believe it would then have broken 8+.

Wow, very difficult shot to get and you've done a great job. A shame about the oof antennae. I wonder if that's why this scored relatively low?
