Yes, they look pretty good to me too, Not sure about the edges you put on them.

Generally when converting, you want to pay attention to the highlight and shadow details. If you can keep information in them, the other tones fall into place.

It's not a hard and fast rule though. Sometimes a "blowout" (like an all white sky for example) works for the mage.

Agreed. The shots are very nice, the borders kind of junk it up.

I like the elephant one with the dust all over. :judge:
