Just my opinion as a photographer myself. The magazines at not going to want the over processed images. Also, watch your background. There is an object "growing" out of the tour pack pad.

Thanks penmaker. I appreciate the Feedback, and yes you are correct. I had over 100 pics taken, and have yet to receive them all. That was the only one he sent me, as he said it will take a good week to prepare them all. Here is another one he just sent me this morning. Some are better than others, and it will take me days to go through them once I receive them all......

Cool pics, way to much post processing for my taste... maybe you can get the originals from him.

He is trying too hard, they look rather cartoonish. Over processed. Often times the most basic shots are the best! IMO.

I would agree, they are way too over processed for my taste.

Simple HDR photo. Don't see any post-processing, just HDR.

If that look is what you dig then that's cool, but if you want a mag to look twice at your pics, get the originals because those effects he is applying are not going to make the cut. Hopefully he got some shots without houses or random items in the background too.
