    I'd like to see the color of #1 mixed with the no light pole in #4

    Thanks for that idea.. i thought that selective coloring would work relly well on that shot too, but yesterday was dark and snowy so #4 was the result of that. I do have plans to go back and try again... ill repost when i get around to that!

    love the background (the trees, mountains, etc.) and color in 1, but you gotta lose the light pole--maybe go the right of the pole shooting from almost the back of the church to the front trying to capture some of the background (can that be done?)-but get rid of the light pole-if need be you could probably clone out the wires-

    I really like what you've done to 5, please describe pp if you would (post-processing that is-don't want to hear about the other)-

    I've mentioned 6 before--great pic-like the colors-but try bw without blowing the highlights-

    also like the coloring or tone in 3-

    you've obviously worked hard on this and you've got some nice shots to show for it-

    thanks for sharing-

    you might be able to photoshop that pole out of 1 but it would take some very tedious work-

    Great shots, good work!
    clap.gif I applaud your prowess with PS (I'm assuming that's how you made that pole disappear). I can only aspire to such greatnessbowdown.gif . My favorites are #'s 1 and 5.

    I love the color (wow what trees!) in #1, but that pole has got to go! I love #5 just as it is...great angle and I like the tone. #4 I would like to see in color. As a black and white it needs some help. I'm no expert but this is what I came up with using curves and a little sharpening. Did you remove the pole in this shot? Great job if so!!!
