Hey, very nice. My favorite is probably the alien abduction one as well. I also agree that a picture of the Plunge one where you rotated the vig by about 45 degrees would help make it clearer. I like the concrete shoes one, except for the gray barrel piece. It’s a bit too big and ends up looking like Moses among the bulrushes rather than the latest victim of a mob hit.

I beg to differ--the beauty of “The Plunge” is that the viewer is looking up into the panicked faces of the riders. If the shot is rotated 45 degrees, we lose that immediacy.

I suppose the focus could be sharpened, but IMO the composition is great as it is.

What if it were titled “Moses the Rubbed-Out Informer” instead? 8^)

Not sure what a good option would be instead of the barrel. Maybe a blue 1x2 plate on a gray 1x2 brick instead of the blue legs?

Great vigs overall, though. Nice work, Carsten!

Dave!
