wonderful render of a shell --- colour, sand texture and the details of the surface are great. -- Only one point --- might look a bit more "photo realistic" if there was a portion of the work in sharper focus -- may be a great deal of work to do
Edit -- nice change now it has a more photo look with a focal point -- glad it was not too much work -- I think it has improved it

nice idea with a nice depth -- maybe a sharpen up the edges the overall look seems a bit too blurry (IMHO)

"Whats up dock"

Alan2641 says:

might look a bit better (IMHO) if you masked the colour adjustment so it only affected the water rather than the whole image

Alan2641 says:

great choice of images with very nice blending over all a great looking work
One slight thing maybe some sort of a texture on the umbrella maybe something like the brass or copper tank -- seem a bit to smooth as it is IMHO

Rack

Alan2641 says:

High res would have been nice -- blending of the phone and the wood is hard to see with the grunge background and the single color. Try masking the wood over the phone then try various blending modes (a layer in overlay mode with a copy above in multiply is usually a good spot to start) Then play with the fill or opacity levels
PS . Look for a better wood source the one you have now is too blurry and will not blend as well as a sharper image -- good luck

cute puppy and nice choices of images -- given the window is behind your subject the shadows are going in the wrong direction. You may want need to rotate the flower as well as its shadow is also incorrect.
