I think these would be great shots with a little less Photoshop manipulation involved.
IMO, subtle is always better. In some of them, the clarity looks a tad distorted too, which is a bit of a shame.

Top one here is my favourite. That looks fantastic.

However, I'm just a cynic, this is by no means a professional opinion.

Yep, far too many good shots ruined by HDR these dayss

[aceg3905]

hey photos are like Marmite a lot of the shots where candid, the processing for me was to bring out the pop as they was pretty flat.

I also didn't have chance to frame and compose, it was pretty much point and shoot as I was sneaking within the group.

but feedback is feedback

Well TBH the original shots look like they would be pretty good.. . . . . . they are just so unnatural now.

Some nice shots there - I enjoyed looking through your album. I agree with the HDR comments, and to my eye some are overcooked there, but each to his own.
