    Hey,
    I like the original & #4. I still say that the track needs to be super-elevated. I also like the way you landscaped. :D

    Photo # 2 is the sharpest because you used the Max sharpness selection on your photo editor.

    You could also increase the brightness one or two values .


    Stay cool and run steam...

    It's really impossible to make a judgement on images at this resolution. Still--my first suggestion would be to make a gaussian blur of the backdrop, and maybe airbrush out the shadow of the tree on the backdrop.

    I'd say 2 is best. Both in sharpness and colors. For number 3, the blue tones, and the vivid backdrop take over, and are too dominant.

    :D

    I also pick number two as the best choice. Also, I agree that more work is necessary on the plain blue backdrop. I would also consider cloning something into the blank area in the lower left corner. It would take some experimenting, but one possibility is to extend the sandy area into that corner, or add some sort of scrub growth.

    Although number two is my first choice, I also like number three because it looks more like a night scene.

    Thanks.

    Sorry I don't know much about it.

    It seems like sharpen and color balance are good.
