Another try

I posted a picture similar to the first one here earlier this week. Problem there was that I had 13 girls. Here I have only the 8 seniors, so I think it works a little better. One thing for sure.....large groups I certainly have trouble with.

you've got some solid compositions here. good angles and poses.

your conversions seem to be missing something...what conversion method are you using? is there any reason for converting them in the first place? i bet some of these look great in color.

The color shots were fine, but they print the program in black and white. These were the conversions for that. I normally would add in some warmth to the BW conversions, and I have a process that works pretty well for that. I normally convert using LAB mode/ colorspace on Adobe PSCS

Nice shots-- yeah group photos are very tough! You did a good job with that.

The first shot in particular looks a little over processed to me-- there's something not 'right' about the tonal values especially around their feet and the skin looks soft-- like maybe you used the blur tool for softening? Just my opinion, but back off on the post processing just a bit and these would definitely be winners!
