By looking and reading the comments about your processing, I can see what has been done, and how it affected the finished image. Very good description of the steps used to get the finished image, and it was effective in bringing the visual impact up a lot.
I wonder what made the very strange 5 toed tracks across the tree trunk on the left?

Your processing stepped this image up a couple of notches. It almost looks like a studio shot with the light background, and the good light level on the deer now. This is a very friendly looking deer. I can never get this close to the ones that I photograph in the Everglades.

Day 10 - Dragon

I like the way you dropped the levels in the background, and sort of made it go away, then put the critter up front with extra color and sharpness. Good shot to begin with, excellent when you finished with it.

I really like the colors and the point of view in this image. The bee is just an added perk, and helps to make the whole scene even better. Good focus and nice depth of field.

Like the petals on the ground with the very hyper looking hound. It looks like he is trying to let you know that he didn't do it.

Pirate's Cove

This is a very pleasing sunset image. I like the color change in the sky, and the position of the boat in relation to the other pic elements.
As high as the boat is sitting in the water, it looks as if they are aground, and sitting on the bottom.

I am intrigued by the contours of the land here where the road goes thru the bank. I like the way you took the color out of the trees with this one, which puts more attention on the shape of the ground in the center of the image.
Where the blue sky meets the trees, the edges seem a little hard with the blue being so saturated, and the limbs so light at that point. I am not exactly sure about how it works, but just saying what I am seeing without candy coating it. : )
Love the way the tan soil and reflection split at the center so that it looks like a fallen tree trunk at first glance, and you accented that with the pp.
It's a very "bush country" looking image with the rural roadway and water.

You are making me want to learn how to do the Photoshop magic. What started as just an unremarkable image with potential has been turned into a solid keeper by your skills with the "fix it" toys. The final image conveys the sense of wild and civilization overlap that you were seeing very well.

Day 9 - Street at Sunset - Edited

Good save Rob, and yes, the power lines that seem to be everywhere I want to point my lens are a real pain to edit out, esp when they cross thru things besides clouds. I think that in the finished shot, the clouds look great, so PP wins lots of points for a good job with that. You started with a tough one to repair, and ended with a pretty good save.

I like the crop, and the reflections are great. Somehow the left bird lost the black hooked part of it's beak into the tree behind with the processing. That's not a big point, but just something that seeems missing, as I am familiar with how the birds look. Usually in pics, their very bright eyes show up strongly too. I am wondering if these are the real thing? There are 5 species, and 3 major types in addition to the more common plastic yard variety.
