Okay, I learned a lot last week, now I hope you guys can help me be a better photographer. Here are my possibles for LPS 11. What do you think?

    Of these three, #2 is probably my favorite, although it seems a bit oversaturated. I also wish there was a touch more space above the top of the crane. I think this can be a great image.

    #1 also caught my attention, however, the crop on the front of the car is a little awkward feeling to me.

    I wish you the very best of luck, whichever you decide to go with. Your titles are all awesome!

    Thanks everyone, I'm working on #2 almost as I type. I've desaturated it a little, added a smigen more space above the crane top and cloned out some halo details. I will go to smugmug and replace the original with the revision as soon as I finish this post. You are so helpful with this fine tuning stuff!

    Color cast
    Thanks everyone, I'm working on #2 almost as I type.

    I'm not very good with color cast, but I think the image shows too much pink in the clouds. Unfortunately, I am not at my regular PC, so I cant look up how to do color cast.

    Anyone else think this? Anyone know how to fix it?

    Thanks Joe, It's pink on my monitor too - I adjusted the WB in a RAW editor - if I go cooler the clouds turn whiter, if I go warmer they muddy out but I'll try some tweaking on the warmer side and see what it looks like.

    Love #2. #1 is also very nice, like the lighting, but would get rid of the signs.
