    Love the second shot. Hate the watermark.

    I like them. I miss seeign old farmers, haha ... weird ... never realized I haven't seen any in quite some years.

    I'd probably ad a bit of a vignette to both shots. Did you get a close up of the woman's face?

    I love that little slice of distant scenery in #2. I bet this would look great as a big print. Nice work.

    Glad you all like them. Yes the watermark is destroying the images. I am having trouble trying to make a watermark in cs5. Something that i can resize for different size photos. The trouble is now that i have uploaded over 16,000 photographs to Flickr and will have to replace them all. Bumer

    Regards
    Patrick Mullan.

    If you are using PS just use a blending mode of Hard Light on your type Layer and back off the opacity to your taste. There are more involved techniques but at least this will prevent your watermark from dominating. I'm sure there must be a way to automate this in PS and with 16,000 photos you better find it! rolleyes1.gif
