Re: Walking along the street
Thank you.
Yes, it is a bit of sepia to warm it up some, the regular blacks didn't give the feel I wanted for this country town.
I did learn something with this shot while editing.
I am pretty fanatical about correcting any obviously leaning pictures as much as possible so the off-level isn't distracting.
There were only a few vertical lines and they were all different.
I tried to upright the big boy but that didn't look good. So I tried walking around and realized that when I stepped out with one leg, my body leaned to that side for balance. The bigger boy was on his left foot and thus actually tilted.
So I used the prominent light pole as the vertical and then everything looked better to me.

Re: Walking along the street
This portrays what I see as the "mood" of the environment. I like the slight vignette...

Re: Walking along the street
Lew,
Another excellent shot that has "feel".
My only suggestion would be to crop a vertical sliver off the right hand side of the frame to eliminate the edge of the sign(?).
Otherwise very nice shot.
