    I like 'em both.

    Love the expression on the woman's face in #1 -

    The expressions in #2 are priceless!

    Thanks Benjamin and Virginia,
    #1 worked for me for the expression on the woman's face and the little slice of busy city life on the left of the frame.

    #2 is my favorite of the two though, for the same reason you both mentioned. Such skepticism. I didnt' stick around to see if he made the sale.

    I like them both, but the second is really great. I'd be surprised if he made the deal...

    Did you do the same processing you usually do? I usually look for (and love!) your deep blacks and very "contrasty" aesthetic, but these look like you used a slightly lighter hand...and I like it!

    Hi there,
    i think I did use a lighter hand. Still don't have a solid workflow so I just eyeball things til they feel right. I was also working with photos taken on a very sunny day with extreme shadows and blow outs.

    The second shot they were all in the shade so I had to lighten it etc. and I wound up with a less contrasty shot. Glad you like it and thanks for commenting.

    They're both good Liz but #2 is the more compelling of the pair. The body language and expressions are worth a thousand words.
