The expression on the first dude is awesome! I would correct the skin tones though. [They seem kinda Magenta-purple on my monitor]

I really like the tilted head composition as well. I would increase the contrast to make this image pop even further.

As Matt has successfully done, I would definitely dabble in a bit of BW for these. [off to try my own.....]

Lastly, thanks for bringing the 24-105 for me to have a look.

Your favourite is also my fave!

Excellent interaction between the model and the camera here. We viewers get a peek at a bubbly personality who does things her own way.

Absolute classic street portrait - well done!

Great shots there Craig..I agree, that last one def takes the cake...makes me wish I had gone on this outing rather than to see the kites!

Well done Mate! Some excellent pics! Image #3...the guy with the porky hat....this is crying out for a B&W conversion.
My hat off to all of you guys who were there on Sunday....you snagged some fabulous people pics! Think A3 prints or larger and you can see where this is heading. Craig...I also love you last image...what a couple! But I suspect you may have cropped this just a little too tightly. Give it some room to breath. Despite what Robert Capa says...closer is not always better!
