Day 1 - Church

Excellent composition straight out of the camera, if you ask me. Very nicely framed by the tree branches, and good sky - ie the clouds add interest and texture. Nice detail on the stone face of the steeple and the red line along the roof apex adds nice color to contrast the sky. About the only suggestion I can think of for editing is to whiten the clouds a bit. Nice job!

Well this one doesn't suck either. I like both. Different moods created in each instance, too.

I haven't checked out the black and white yet, but gotta say I'm quite likin' the color version. I may be requesting remedial help later on radial gradient masks...

I love the ocean fading in to the background with no discernible end. And the surfer dude - gotta love surfer dudes. :-)

Heh! I like the fact you like it for sentimental reasons more anyway!

Way cool! Very good work - I like the faint hit of canvas texture, too. Really a good portrait!

A lovely shot, Don! Nicely captures mom and sibling as well as the new young'un. I like how you processed it, too.
