Shot my friend with some off-camera lights on a cloudy day.

I have already commented on the watermark/text in another thread. Other than that, I think these are very good images. A good use of light reflecting from the water to put shape and form into the images.

I like the second one the best by far. Nice use of lighting, natural smile, and I even like the tilt (which I usually don't like).

In the first one, I can't tell if the subject is the frothy water or the swimmer. In the second one, I wish the swimmer had been looking at the camera and that the conversion included more bright tones.

Thank you Donald and Mike. In the first pic, the subject i guess, was the moment he hit the water. and as for looking at the camera thing, do you mean in the third picture?
