    I think you're better off today with regard to success rate for sure. And you might combine it with corrective surgery and walk away better off :D

    All the best!

    ToyTaco, very nice color. Like the composition and the transition between light and dark.

    Nitro! Awesome sequence in the first.

    Wes! 2nd and 3rd and 4th are strongest of the bunch. Looks like you have some WB issues. And you need to watch your horizons ;)

    Thanks Ian! Yeah I see the horizon lines better now on the TW white background. Didn't seem as bad in lightroom on the black background but against the white I see it more.

    And I can honestly say, I don't know if its me or my screen needs callibrating. When I take pictures inside that gym I have such a terrible time trying to get the white balance correct. And I have never been real satisfied with the white balance on my 50D, I think something is wrong with it sometimes. And it seems like the metering system is off as well. I'm so ready to pick up a 7D.

    I think 2 and 4 are the strongest. if you know your camera is having issues with the WB, why not set it manual? I also think your exposures are off pic by pic. 2 looks the best, whereas the others seem underexposed a tad.

    You can set a custom white balance for the shoot. Or shoot raw and fix it later.

    Calibrating your monitor will help as well making sure your working with a consistent color profile in your pictures (prophoto or srgb).
