I was taking a walk by the river and there was a father with his two son's fishing. I don't know if they caught anything, but I just had to grab a few photos even tho it was so cloudy and dreary out. It was nice to see the Red River down now after all the spring flooding, but its rising again from all the rain we have received.

    My suggestion: try B&W on these. The color is washed out and doesn't add anything. I think a B&W version would be pretty cool.

    Tend to agree with Jeff's opinion. They are pretty frank as is and could
    use some creative PP of one sort or another to pull greater value out of
    them. Orton effect, BW... or something else you know of and like.

    I agree with both of you...BW might be good on these photos. I usually like to leave something like this alone. Its the "Even on a cold, crappy, dreary day a family will still find fun in going fishing". I'll play around with them and see what I can come up with and post it.

    Thank you for taking the time to comment on the photos and give your suggestions. I'm always open to suggestions for improvement thumb.gif

    This is what I did with the photo I really liked the most. Let me know if any of these are better. Last one if my favorite.
