Is it just me or does the following photo seem strange? It has minor PP to it, but it appears to kind of glow near the bottom. (It was my test at "Framing the Subject")

Regarding your last photo and the 'glowing' you are referring to......did you shoot that through a fence? It appears that something was in the foreground of the subject.....possible a small piece of fencing (or whatever is surrounding your subject). The lens picked it up, even though the subject is clearly in focus and the exposure wasn't affected.

Thats my theory and best logical explanation.

Nice shots.

There was nothing obstructing the photo. Only thing that was near were 2 metal braced i was shooting inbetween trying to frame the subject (RED ON TOP)

For that last one, it looks like he was carrying some dust through with him in the curve... creating that hazy look. The sun is probably playing a role as well.

To be honest I am not familiar with how the camera physically grabs the image. But from my own experience with it, it has to be the red object that you described being what you shot through. Think of it as if you were looking through your own eyes......if you shut one eye, you can see more in one direction that the other......and vice versa with the other eye. If you look with both eyes, you get the field of view combined....but that difference that is blocked when closing one eye is still there....just almost appears see through.
