My second try to work with the shots I got from Avi. I got four versions of this piece. I hope some of you like one of them at least. ^_^

Thank you Darryl! :) I'm glad you like the colors. I currently use a much worse screen than I should so I'm a bit uncertain of the color balance in my pictures at the moment... ^_^

BTW: Nice new avatar you got! ;-)

Yes, the colors are weathered like paint on an old airplane. The sepia is very warm and looks like it has been sanded away to reveal the cobalt blue. Glad you like the new avatar, I was getting real tired of the old one.

I'm glad it worked out the way I though with the colors. :)

Yes, your avatar is cool, it looks like something you might be working in. Is that you inside the helmet?

Ah, I wasn't sure if it was a real face or not. It's so small. :) How come you put a manikin in a helmet like that. It looks like it could be diving related. I thought that at least since it was your avatar. :)

I'm really glad you like this one Joost. I'm far more certain about my works quality when it comes to ordinary photography... This level of editing is quite new to me so I'm very happy about feedback on it! :) (I need it so I can learn from my mistakes. ^_^)

Hmmm... I wonder if maybe I have stolen your idea Grimbug! (See "collaborative project" on the discussion board) I hope not...

For me, it seems to be a cabalistic sign painted on a plane's body... Well done Klas! :-)

That's what I like about doing more abstract pieces. You can see so many different things in an image. Interesting interpretation Pierre. I'm glad you like it, since this whole editing thing is very new to me. :)

I really don't know how you can make these pictures... That's why I'm so interested by the 'tutorial' dicussion... ;-)

I like the colours, but, in my own opinion (and nothing more than that), I find the symmetry in the photo to be a bit dull, because of the lack of more vibrant colours.

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated. I definitely agree the colors aren't what I would call vibrant...
