What does everyone think?

I think it looks good, would like to see the subject a little brighter tho and try to put some fog in the foreground and you would be set!!!! (I've never tried in photoshop but see it done often here is a link Adding Smoke to an Image in Photoshop in 6 Easy Steps

Ah thanks!

I thought to keep it a little dark to show how early it is, but I see what you're saying. I took others that have a little more light on the jogger.

I think I would re-shoot this with fog in front of the subject as well. Great idea!

Glad you liked it. Thanks for the feedback!

This is begging for off camera flash on the subject.

I wanted to keep this one a little more mysterious being a little darker, since I wanted the scene be more of the subject. Guess I got it lost in translation. Thanks for pointing it out!

if you want a dark creepy shot, i would do it where the sun is not as high, you will have to get up early and be shooting like at 6 am... might toy around with the white balance is warm on subject but cold other wise(gel the lights) or go for a total silhouette... I would like to see the progression of this shot, so if you have a go at it again keep us updated!
