Good work on these Raymond, they are all good but the 2nd picture really stands out for me. Well done

Thanks again Randog, that #2 shot looks so much better..

Here is another I took .. same angle, different pose.

wow #2 for me too raymond! i really like the whole series a lot.

Raymond seeing both of these versions of #2 together I think that the grain removal process takes too much vibrancy away from the original it may be better to add a little more grain back in. imo

you may be right Randog, but your version will look sooo much better on paper.. that grain really messes up a good print., and to me, lots of shots look good on a bright clean lcd monitor, but print them on 13x19 paper.. then I decide if it's really a good effort.

If any of my friends here at tpf want an original file from my d70 to mess with, or keep for any personal use, just pm me, I would be glad to share.
