Helpful Posts: Woke up at 3am and just couldn't go back to sleep, so I loaded up Photoshop and started to play around with the image of the wind turbines I took yesterday. (View original here)
Its 5am now and I'm about to get out and hopefully capture a nice sunrise
C&C welcome
#1 - The first version I did
#2 - I hit the wrong button which turned the image B&W, which I liked so tweaked it a bit:

Excellent use of insomnia, Matt. Like the colour version best.

Re: Wind (Fine Art)
Both excellent creative images Matt but for a change, the colour has it for me. It would look good on a wall.

Re: Wind (Fine Art)
Good ones. I like them both....First it was the vodka, now it is the insomnia
...I think if you stay awake all night working on your image, you will create better and better fine arts with a hint of photography.

Re: Wind (Fine Art)
Beautiful shots. My one suggestion would be to up the contrast of the B&W. The one below (I'll remove it if you don't allow edits) has only two changes: I moved the white point up and added contrast via a curves layer.

Re: Wind (Fine Art)
Excellent work for 3:00AM. I consider managing to keep one eye open a significant accomplishment at that time of day.
I hope you keep on waking up early. You've created a brilliant piece here; hopefully there will be some more coming on those sleepless nights?.
While Dan's edit improves the B&W, I still find that the subject matter suits the colour version better.
