Holy freakin' cow, Batman. You took a shot I thought had a pretty good composition and some very nice color in the arch, but was otherwise, well, a bit plain, sorta, and really made it sing! I bow to your mad skilz.

Very neat perspective. I love the rust of the wheels and rails - might be neat to try to really bring that out in post processing.

Day 3 Advanced Edited

Yeah, you probably ought to buy the software so you can not worry about the watermark. :-) This came out very nicely, though I think you could tone down or at least blend out the bright part around him a bit, mostly just by his arms. Very nice the way you brought out the detail in his clothes and face with your editing.

Great colors for out of the camera - whatever you do, don't increase the saturation of the blue! It's wonderful the way it is!

Thirsty. 30 Day Minimal Edit.

I too like the white roots that are exposed. This might look good with way too much contrast but you'll have to play with it and see what you think.

GREAT shot - because the emotions come shining through quite clearly! I don't know how much editing this will take - it depends on what you're after. A bit of curves and/or levels and some sharpness might be all you need. You may want to try alternate crops, without them in the center, but in this shot I like the symmetry so center works, too. Have fun with it and try different things. I'd definitely leave it in color, and this is from a B&W person. :)

Day 3: Waiting

I quite like these and agree with the one you chose. I think in post if you can just bring out the light in the eyes a touch and just a bit on the skin this will have a very ethereal feel to it. Very nice composition and well shot for a self portrait!

Day 3 Rope

Comment:
Very nice texture on the rope. Isolating it from the background and highlighting the texture would be one way to go with editing.

Wonderful composition on this. If you have the software, I think this would be a good candidate for tonemapping. If you have PS but not Photomatix, you can try shadows/highlights and play with the sliders a bit, then play with saturation and contrast after that. A very good photo out the camera!
