Great colors. I actually really like the last shot. Even on the crappy monitor at work it shows some great blacks and other colors. Nice work

Thanks, glad the black came through. Here lately I've been doing my contrast adjustments by using a method inspired by the split-tone process for black and white. Normally I use orange/blue or orange/brown, but on these three for the first time I tried orange/black. I was pleased with how it worked out for the barge. It really is black to begin with, but the process really brought it out nicely, I think.

These are good Mike and the colours are very vibrant. I'm not as taken with the 3rd shot. I find it hard to distiquish details and see what the subject is. My monitor has been calibrated and my prints look excatly the same as the monitor so I know the screen's good. Looing at the 3rd shot, I don't really know what is there. A little brightness whould help IMO

I really enjoy your shipping stuff. That last one, it's just a real nice shot!

or...

Movie quote... sorry... it's one of my all time favorite movies "On the Waterfront".

I like them. Great colors and sharpness. My only pick is the dust blobs in the first image, otherwise it looks good.

Ah....crap. Now I gotta redo that one! I thought I cloned out all the dust blobs but I can see that I missed a couple now that you point them out.

Third shot is a welder working on a barge, by the way.

You can perform a sensor cleaning. The dust can be seen on the 2nd picture too.

No comments on the dust now that someone else has pointed it out

I like the colors Mike,

For some reason they remind me of Lego
