Engine pictures needed 4 the calendar & Photoshop opinions!

Ladies and gents need some engine pictures asap for the backgrounds on the months of the all Olds calendar and I thought I would post a few pictures from the submissions I have recieved and thoughts on photoshopping them to be more desirable for what iam after.......get it right the 1st time or do what you have to do to make it usable?

Dont get all excited now........Nothing written in stone,But I like the ones above so I got to work doing a little photoshop today since I was off work and want to get ahead of the game so to speak...........After I posted these I see I need to blend a few a little better......

I have your engine shots also,Right now I dont have enough for 12 months......

The Photochopped pics are way better, nice work.

Get the pic link I sent you?, I can do more?
I'll get to work enhancing a few with my limited Photoshop knowledge if that will help me attain glory.
I have some ideas, ever hear of that radio station "Wenches and Wagons" photo contest?
Those big fuzzy dice behind that green car's windshield are really distracting.
The engine pics would be way better.
How about the trunk??

Not sure if this is "clean" enough, but if think so, PM me and I'll take more of different angles for you. Its an original 455 from an SX

Kind of like doing a where's Waldo puzzle or "these two aren't the same" exercise. It gives me headaches. Nice pictures though.

I say photoshop only improves the picture. We can't all be pro photographers and get it right the first time!
