They look too soft and too blurred. I like the original photos better. Sorry.

Hey Monogram

If these are the results of using Photoshop for one day - then I'd say good job!
From what you've done it looks like you've grasped some good techniques and you know how to use your tool.
I think ultimately you've taken them too far, but with time comes experience - and you can't aim for perfection until you've learnt your trade.
Keep up the good work!

well done mate! this is really good for your first attempt and you certainly seemed to have grasped the idea well... however, like its been said before me.. perhaps a litte more subtlety may help..

i have to say i like Jennifer Anistons eyes too! i would have probably cropped that traffic cone out the background too.. that just me though. well done again mate!

I think this is really good at a first attempt! My biggest problem though is you completely changed the color of Anistons eyes..They are a grey/blue, and you turned them green. There are ways to make eyes really sparkle without changing the color. I know I say this time and time again...but dodge/burn tool can do this nicely. Zoom way in on the eyes and play with the light and dark parts of the eye using the dodge and burn...You can get fantastic looking sparkling eyes using this method while still retaining the objects original color.
