Good one Dan,
It actually makes me uncomfortable to look at it.
Total opposite ends of everything and with that pole dividing them in the middle.
Intended or not this says so much.
Terrific story here. Really nice. If I were you, though, I'd go back to the original color image and play around with conversions, working to avoid the overall gray look you've got here.clap
Am I having a senior moment or haven't we seen this shot before?
Well, in any event, I like it a lot, though I agree with BD that the contrast could use a boost. Well seen.
Richard, you have seen this before. I entered it in a dgrin challenge a while back, but I was curious what folks in this particular forum would think about it. Thanks for your feedback.:D
this is terrific. The physical aspects of the composition offer all kinds of metaphors for differences in life experience etc. Thanks for posting this.

You and me both. But it would be good to see a rework on the conversion. Lot's of potential in the image.
Excellent capture.
