#1 is nice, needs a bit lightening under the had, and I think it's a bit mtion blurred though.
#2 is good
#3: Crop a bit bottom & left to loose the sheet paper and the hands of the left guy: It's a distraction.
#4: good
#5: Kurt too light, Tony too dark
#6: Nice expression, pity about the second guy.
#7: Doesn't work for me.
#8: Nice. Would have been better with a less distracting BG (on the left). Maybe darken that a few stops...

Thanks for the feedback Rene'. Some of the BG processing, I'll have to review in the tutorials...

Here is #3. This was just a basic trim job. Easy to do.

I'll have to work on #8 further. Right now, this crop is temporary.

Thanks "J" ...

I hear you...
I remember the "Untouchables" from the movie and the many years of weekly TV shows.

BBVD is a pretty cool band...:D

When you least expect it, occasionally good things happen too...
I tried a Photoshop feature in Adjustments: Shadow/Highlight... and unlike using levels, This feature adjusted the shadow under the hat automatically...:rolleyes:

So I thought I'd share; with those lucky enough to read this post (and not familiar with Photoshop)... we have another fantastic tool to work with...;)
