50 Aug 20 Comment Original 1 is the best IMHO. Intensifying the contrast and sharpness like David did does help. Cropping the bottom as Jeffrey did along with some slight black vignetting may be good. It will make a nice wall hanging in a black 1 inch smooth frame. Aug 16th
50 Aug 20 Comment In my mind the choice of sepia originally is just right. I am sure it looks best in a print rather than projected. A fine wall hanging as it is. The square vignetting adds to the interest and mystery. Aug 16th
50 Aug 20 Comment For me, the color version is best. I really like the high key lighting and while background. To make it better I suggest a wider view. The tight crop seems a little constricting for such beautiful flowers. Aug 16th
50 Aug 20 Comment Making this a mono is best. The color version is not old Caboose Tuscan Red accurate. It is a one of a kind color to Railfans. Composition perfect. You must have that brakeman wheel. I like the perfection of straight lines both vertical and horizontal. The arch in the roof makes it. Aug 16th
50 Aug 20 Comment Explore is what this image reminds me. Jeffrey nailed it with the crop and the contrast giving emphasis to the concrete streaks. Print it and frame it for the wall. Aug 16th
50 Aug 20 Comment Yep, agree with cropping it to vertical. I guess I was trying to tell a story in context with the rest of the scene. Thanks for comments to make it better. Aug 7th

92 Aug 20 Comment Action, lots of action. She is coming up with the chain saw and making a perfect cut. Knowing the color version would help for purposes of the Digital Dialog. You certainly captured the perfect timing of the action. Well done. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Comment This capture really grows on you. It makes you think about what the guy is thinking. For me, the composition is spot on as is the sharpness and the tonality. Dont change a thing. Go Street Photography! Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Comment Personally, I would have liked to see the color verson. Shadows are a little much. I like what you say about carrying the camera and stumbling into making the image. Good going. I mighe have stepped back a few paces and captured more of the scene to tell a story. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Comment This tells a story of closeness and people communicating. Agree with Geoff taking it brighter. For help i would expand the crop as it seems a little tight. Great street shot. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Comment She nailed you! And, it did not matter. Great streel shot, thia is what street photography is all about. Well done. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Reply Thanks, Goeff. I thought about that and decided not to, cannot say I have a reason.Same goes for the green flip flop. Maybe keep it photojournalistic. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Reply They are pretty far away for dodging the faces. In my mind it would not add to the image. Aug 16th
92 Aug 20 Comment Agree on crop. That makes for a square image. I made the square crop and a few retouches to contrast and facial dodging. Final was a tiny bit of vignette. Aug 7th
