Hard Hat

Richard

Not really street--six stories up.



Hope you like it.

Cheers,

Tom K.

My gut reaction is that I love the uniqueness of this shot. Very interesting photo. Excellent work here.

Many thanks, Tom. I appreciate your comments.

This is excellent, Richard. I really love the simplicity of the scene. If I
were to change something, I'd maybe add a bit of contrast, but that's just
a nitpick. Good job.

Thanks, Bernard. Glad you like it.

Good one
Very compelling shot. The forms, texture, and line work are spot on. And the red hard hat cinches it. I'd saturate the red a bit more or add a spot of subtle light to it. But really, as is, it's just fine.

Hi Richard! I like the composition and subject matter alot. I agree with what's been said about the contrast and saturation. Somehow it's not quite up to your usual PS standards which are always quite excellent. It just doesn't pop enough.

Hi Susan,

Thanks for your comments. I took about half a dozen shots of this guy working and applied different amounts of contrast and color enhancement to them, but I kept coming back to this particular treatment. You are right that it is muted compared to what I ususally aim for, but to me it had a dreaminess that I found appealing. Maybe I just didn't have enough coffee that day.

Cheers,

Maybe I had too much coffee!!! Hey, I like change-ups in my processing, too. I just noticed the 'difference' in your work....shows you I have been paying attention!
