My favorite one is "happy birthday" but that's just me...

I can't figure out why you're not famous yet...

I can almost see the poor guy pulling out his hair in the dark room when he saw this.
Do not attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence, fear, ignorance or stupidity, because there are millions more garden variety idiots walking around in the world than there are blackhearted Machiavellis.

Actually he was probably the only one that didnt sign the model release or else he was under age,  photographer probably had to used a very, very early beta version of photoshop to fix that.

Really? Good for you! The pics look nice, have you sold alot of them? I don't specialize in scenary photography, but I do specialize in sports photography. Do you have any sports samples I can learn from?

Whats your business name?
How much have you sold this year?
Could you give me some tips on how to get published?  
Also, when does a photographer get the title "professional" ?  The reason I ask is because I've been shooting photographer for 30 years, yet I still consider myself an learning amateur...
My guess would be that once you have a degree in photography and have been published, that is when the title "professional" would apply. Wouldn't you agree?

What do you think of the post-processed image below? Too much blue? I think it allows the viewer to see the birds on the lake alittle better.

To be completely honest, I have to say that Rip's post processing was a big enhancement; Rip's enrichment of the colours added a much needed breath of life...you would do yourself well to take some notes from him!:)

Take a look at the link I provide above your post, and tell me its too much saturation. ;) (Specifically the sunset pic, and the water drop pic)

I don't like the over saturation.

Also, you took the original photo and presented it  at a reduced resolution.

Here is the original, and your edited version.





To answer some of your questions. The name of my business ( LLC) is Arizona Greens.

To be considered a professional, I'd say that you would have to be hired and paid for your services.

all
what you done was moving midtones tag on levels correction to right, caveman can do it! But thats not the way how its suppose to be done!
Picture is burn and unnatural- plastic
Next time use shadow /highlight  and calibrate your monitor properly.
