Not that I don't like them, but are you just gonna keep posting pictures and let people tell you how much they like them? Cause if so... let me be first...

Whats the deal with the rasta dude. You keep posting pictures of him. We get it. Try something else.

Various techniques?:confused:

That's not very apparent here, it's more like various models!

Well, ok, what type of camera are you using? :) (*feeble attempt to get you to talk about your work*)

as far as technique, i can tell you messed with the first one, so i will give you a feew pointers based on what i see...
it seems you used on of the unsharpen mask filters, but i am afraid you pushed it too far. look at the man lips.. those hard dark lines are too mush unsharping.
also, you cut the original background from the photo and either massivly blured the original back or filled with a solid. try mapping shorter distances between your lasso drops when selecting an area like this to save your picture from having a chopped up face. also, somewhere in there is the 'feather' option. when you are going to delete or fill an area next to face feather at lease 2 or three pixels just to soften thatt line...

not a huge fan of the filter you use on rasta man... i dont know why

that is all

Not a showcase ho going on here, auto. Participate a little, share why you're sharing some of this stuff.

Ermuh, be like, sociable like?

Looks like an overuse of the unsharp mask to me, particularly the Rasta guy. What's up with that nose hair?

[Samakimoto Graphics]

Eeep!

I see it 'Ryan

auto', were you doing some photo correction or restoration? (*Yet another attempt...*)
