Here is fairly typical scene on the I-75 thru Atlanta during rush hour. I gave it a bit of B&W treatment to enhance the somewhat depressed mood of the situation...

All C&C welcome!

    Hi Thor,


    I really like this picture. It is very unconventional- yet it holds one's interest. Love the fact that you chose B&W to portray that dull and mundane feel. Well done indeed. clap.gif



    Cheers,

    Thor,

    I love the treatment and if it wasn't already an overcast morning, it certainly feels that way now.

    It's quite OOF though...? That doesn't quite do as much for me as the color enhancements.

    Thank you all for the great comments! Schmoo, I hear what you say about the lack of focus; it was sort of intentional, just to add to that bleary-eyed Monday morning feel - Laughing.gif. But I do see how it can be a bit distracting.

    That's the way I took the OOF in the shot. I like it. It definitely has that "mood."
