Not sure what you mean. I shot each one individually and never combine any shots...
And thanks for your kind comments!

I know, I guess I wanted the "wow" effect too badly and may have over-done it a little. The originals are kind of plain and much less colorful. Tried b/w but it didn't work out very well. Hey afterall, they didn't call me newbie for no reason! Thanks for your comment!

No I like the vivid colors. Most of these shots I see are Milk and against a dark blue background.

So how were you getting the flash timing?

I like three and four although I would prefer a different subject for reflection in three. Great work and patience!
