    Nice shot. Those look like they would be a lot of fun.

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    I quite like these. Perhaps a slight contrast boost would help the colours pop even harder.

    Oh that's nice Shelley. Good composition. Not in the critique section here but it begs to be brightened a little using the curves tool or similar

    Thanks everyone!

    I think I had tried to brighten it, but it wasn't looking right to me. I'm still learning PSE 7 though and editing in general. I guess I don't trust my judgement on when the photo quite looks its best...I'll try to brighten it some and post again to see what you all think.
