Thank you Radlafx. 3Dguy...I appreciate all the time you took...twice,no less! As to #1,most of that noise/colour came from my postwork,I believe.I would have to go back to the original to see what caused it.I kind of liked it funky like that,but I will try your suggestion. Re #2-I thought maybe the same thing. In #3 the ground was actually tilted.So it didn't occur to me it might look wrong.I'm glad you pointed that out. With #4,I could look for the original of that flower... And #5,She was all dark actually.I used a spotlight for her face. Once again,thank you both.I would love to know what anyone else thinks.This is so helpful!
