my favorites are 4 and 1 because I achieved the styles I was going for in photoshop editing perfectly (imo)
I don't know why but that pic freaks the shit out of me
Good job, 9/10 coming from someone who has absolutely no perspective of fine art, but whatever.
that is really good.
I think you need to work on is your post-processing. It's not terrible, but it's not great either. It's kind of overdone and sometimes messes with things in your images that make good art, most noticeably depth and colors. In fact it sort of takes over and the actual composition is looked over. The main one this happens in is 4, where you added the fake depth of field which becomes glaringly obvious the more you look at it, since it doesn't follow the rules of normal blur/depth, and this just closes off the picture plane and pushes the background up to the front right along with the figures, straining the eye and making it look more flat than without the figures, actually. Uh yeah this happens in 2 too, as things are haphazardly blurred. 1 is pretty good composition wise, but there's really no depth. The subject neither stands out nor blends in. 3 has by far the best composition and clarity and post-processing, though the contrast is still a little too high, the glaring white patches against the expanses of dark grass hurt.
uh i hope you're okay with criticism because i tend to be blunt and point out the negative instead of the positive. you're obviously not a novice, and in general know what you're doing. these are just things to keep in mind to make your stuff even better. the biggest room is the room for improvement (lol)
in collage 3 the truck looks really small....it's an illusion!
Was there a reason for not blurring the background around the subjects?

I blurred some areas of the background of the one with the figure in the foreground (which is pretty obvious if you look at the background closely), and the one with two people has most of the background blurred.... the others don't really lend themselves well to background blurring
Yeah, I mean was there a reason you left a uh.. aura around them, where the background is still in focus?
Looks weird. Otherwise, I like.
