    I think I get it. You mean with the Maidens outfit versus the laptop?

    Connected or separate... not sure I'm catching that full theme, though I'd venture they are connected via their proximity.

    Old vs new, period vs banality of modern green room/cafeteria, mom vs daughter (which is indeed the case here), laptop vs costume.... any number of 'em. But perhaps they're not clear enough headscratch.gif

    They are each in their own world.

    This works for me! It's lovely. The post-processing looks awesome and gives the shot Rockwell-like quality. I can definitely see the disconnect. Well done! thumb.gif

    Yep, I get the theme right off the bat from this shot. A very similar concept of shot popped into my head when I first saw the theme posted.

    With all that green in the image check that you don't have a color cast muddying your image. Otherwise a great one! thumb.gif

    Thanks all! thumb.gif

    PS Don, after you mentioned the green cast I went groping around in LR (this was done completely in LR, fwiw), and the preset I used as the base for this processing turns out to have some split-toning even in the colour version; the shadows are hued towards blue, so when I took the sat down on that a little, it warmed right up.

    I had no idea that you even COULD split-tone a colour shot (I never even looked as I always assumed it would be grayed out until you converted to bw), so a classic case of "learn something new every day"!
