Craig, I really like this one, though its difficult to articulate why. I like the tones, and all the distracting elements and confusion, yet the stillness of the two figures.

Craig: Thanks again....
Richard: I have to agree actually, this image is a very frustrating frame, both tonally / content / and end result. Not one of my best, but certainly one, that I wanted to achieve a greater end result with. I even saw teh image in my head, but as yet havent got a result I am 100% happy with. I will try a pure Black and White and start from scratch I think, maybe tommorows post? , thanks for commenting.... csj

I like the potential in this shot but the specific retention of the subdued hues are a distraction. I tend to think that this sort of treatment is rather gimicky. For me B&W would improve things considerably. richard

I don't know why you're not happy with this one. There are a couple of distractions - the blown highlight on the edge of the fruit machine, the edge of something at the bottom of the frame - but it certainly tells a great story. And, FWIW, I like the subdued processing.
