The only nitpick I’d voice is that the text (the paragraph ones) in a few places is trying to fight for center stage against the background image (most notably in first and third image). It’s not a MAJOR issue, and hell, I’d use your covers as is, but my suggestion is to maybe have some kind of semi-transparent background behind the text. In other words, your text’s background could be black, but not solid black. Just faded and transparent enough so that you can see the background image and still have your text really pop out. Overall, really dig it!

First off thank you! Second I am still learning (pretty much self-taught) and I am not sure how to add that offset shadow to the back. Once I figure that out I will definitely add that!

This is what I want to do. Phildesfr did it very well, I wish I knew how to add this effect. I am using Illustrator CC

I am also having a hard time finding HQ images of the shots I have or similar shots. they all get pixelated when I zoom in to look at the text I am working on. Not sure how it would look printed.
