The Boat... Edits & Opinions welcomed

Well Tisha I am going with 3. It looks like a nice and relaxing time fishing. Just a nice easy boat ride to the fishing hole.:)And you can plainly see him driving. The shot just needs to be brightened up some and maybe a little more definition.

This is about all I know how to do in PP. I am trying to learn the fancy stuff.:)
Looks great! I have had my #'s wrong the whole time,(i think) :lol: I edited #3 1st

I like that!! Now make the water a little bluer. You did nice on the boat. Making it whiter makes the shot.

I am working on a retirement gift for my father-n-law. I plan to take one of these images and transfer it to a large piece of wood. Just curious which one you would use and feel free to edit and show your vision. Be creative! I am about to start editing them all. My vision is more rustic, almost painted on the wood and sanded away. All of the images were taken with 50mm 1.4 at f/9 ISO100 A 1/500
Thanks in advance for your input!
Started with #1, I will go to #3 next. What do you think of the sky?

#1 I would flip it so it is going right to left. When looking at a newspaper or picture we look at the right side first. Just my thought. all are great pictures. - Dave
Such a great idea! Working on that one now.......and done! :thumbup:
Dave I had it wrong the whole time.... I thought #1 was #3 :lol:

Good suggestions all. The only thing i can add is make the horizon straighter.

LOVE the angle of #2 BUT, I love that the horizon is level in #1 and the name of the boat can be plainly seen. I also disagree with the flip idea. I like #1 best just as it is

Thanks for the tip, noticed after I posted the before and afters. Here are my adjustments to the horizon.
Thanks again!
OK, now that you have edited, I like the last one best too. He is heading toward the light, but be sure you know where this will hang. You don't want the boat to be on a small section of wall, headed toward the corner of the room. (a little interior design kicking in there)
OOPS, you added 2 more pix before I hit send. Be sure to level that horizon too. If not, all your water is going to spill out one side or the other. :lol:

Thank you so much for the comments. Someone else mentioned the horizon so I made 1 & 3 as straight I could. It seems to be a toss up between those. :D
Both look really good now. Love the water in the top one and what you did with the sky in both.

Thanks so much Erv! I am at a standstill between 1 & 3... Not much time to make my decision. :D

Very nice crisp, clear shots. I would prefer to have the boat coming toward me rather then going away. Just my thought.

I have not graduated to the PP yet, but to me the sky looks great in this post.
So did your husband hijack your father-n-law's boat or is it his son's boat he would like a picture of?

Now is all this attention to detail going to show up on a burned on wood presentation?
