Some of the pics (6 and 7) seem realy soft. Not sure if that's what you intended to do on them. The shots are good, don't get me wrong but I would like to see them sharpened up a bit more maybe. The last one is good. It has that oldschool Nostalgia feel to it.

Hi
I also like the last one and agree with Nidz,
"It has that oldschool feel to it"

Hi

I find No2 to be the best - very dramatic and the B+W gives it that timeless effect.

Totally worth it, I love that shot, would be happy to have it framed and hanging on a wall.

#4 is almost there for me, too. It just needs something with the sky, I don't know what, but just a bit too much plain white. Good concept, though.

Thanks for posting.
