Grafton Criterium - "The Lost Images"

Thought to be long gone, I found these hiding in the wrong folder. What luck! These are from way back in June, during the Tour of America's Dairlyand (ToAD). Nice and warm! Not my best day with the camera, but I got some nice keepers.

Great photos!

I like them, great compositions but seem way over sharpened in post.

it seems like the sharpening monster ate these for dinner!

You just gotta love these comments! Funny, well thought out and to the point.

I would agree. You need to back off on the sharpening.

Looks more like a noise reduction thing to me.

Thanks for the input. Much appreciated. I like the way they look!

You hand out C&C better than you take it....

1 and 4 are very over sharpened..like it's already been said. It's all pixelated and fake looking.

Now, why do you say that?

I don't see any pixelation. Where? On her arm?

Fake? In what way?

Here's #4 straight out of the camera, just the same crop.

it's your curves adjustment or whatever you did to it, then.
