This is my second attempt.

What do you think?

    Ok--The title was supposed to be
    "Toto, I don't think we're in Innisfree anymore".

    Does that work better?

    I also have the black and white version

    I think the craziness and the opposite of the poem comes off better in color though, what with the dyed green heads etc. Nothing peaceful about the shot to me

    Then again I could really be stretching it hererolleyes1.gif .

    EDIT--the more I look at the b&w the more I like it--b&w is also quite the opposite of what I think of when I think about Yates' poem.

    Any thoughts?

    I like the one in color. I'm particularly drawn to the "sausage pretzel" sign in the background... it seems so incongruous, part of a different culture?, but I can't read enough of it to really tell.
    There's a lot of action in the shot, and I like the title.

    Thank you red_zone.
    I am torn--but I do like the color very much--that pretzel cart just makes it for me:) and the green hair rolleyes1.gif .

    Glad the title works for you.

    I am voting for the color. It seems to convey more information to me.

    oh man--it's so hard for me to override my b&w preference--but I think you guys are right on this one.

    Now to decide between this concept or my original idea headscratch.gifne_nau.gif .

    IDK, I really like the B&W. If you were entering for DSS 46, I'd go with the color, but for Innisfree, I think it is unnecessary.

    And I am going to have to think a bit between this and #2 in the first set. Sorry I am not much help. headscratch.gif

    I missed your post earlier--sorry for not replying--
    I went with another shot. I couldn't decide between the color and b&w on this one vs. the drummers--so I went with a third option :D .

    Thanks for commenting.
