It got some help. The magenta is more orange in the original. The blue's the same. I'll post one in the full set later this week. I just liked the magenta more personally.
Well I guess we can see where Kim and Blondie's minds are at. The purple is too unrealistic. The window in the second image is distracting. It's an easy removal.
I'd say just be careful with the posing in the silhouette photo - the way he's pressed up against her with his one leg extended and melding into hers makes her look very thick.

the building in the background of the sunset looks like a ...penis...sorry....first thing I noticed and it competes with the couple.
I thought the same thing as well without seeing the other comments first. I would love to see how the lighting really looked. I like what you did, but it makes me curious how it looked in real life.
Wow. That's like THE number one landmark here people from all over the world come to take pictures of. Okay, I get it. No more silhouettes of the Castillo. Although, I do like that it's only the girl's noticing it. And yes on the legs as well. They were on an steep angled hill. I didn't notice it until afterwards.
The placement of the window in the second was actually on purpose.
Here's the "real" sunset with just the blacks, contrast and vibrancy pushed. The only actual difference bewtween the two is the WB. The purple's about 800K colder. Obviously, it wasn't "truly" this dark yet.

I prefer the 2nd silly wet Alan... I would maybe crop a bit off the left though.
The second... sunset?

the 1st one is not that great.. she just looks sad.
But the other two are great.
I have several of that one... some where she's laughing. This one just struck me more as a tender moment and stuck out from the rest.
Thanks for the additional comments also. As I said, I'm just trying some different things, so I really like hearing the thoughts. These were probably the most different of the shoot/editing.
