This weeks image is one of Alan’s and being street photography, a bit different.

Here is my rendition. I thought this crop was a stronger story.

I like your crop Ben.

Yeah, this seems so odd to see a photo of Alan's without ferns and moss in it or a wide open beach.

It's great to see Alan out shooting other things too.

The shots for that day look quite foreign alongside of the rest of the shots I took that trip - which DID have ferns and moss

I went the Lightroom B&W route just to try something I'm not used to doing.

I am liking that tighter crop and the B&W. I didn’t think I would like that tight of a crop but I do.

Here is my take on this. Tried about 3-4 different crop ideas and settled on this. The focus is clearly on the couple enjoying some sun and drinks. Which meant removing as much of the image that distracts from that including some selected cloning. Also wanted to bring some warmth to the scene to emphasize the morning sunlight.

Nice Jameel, I wanted to keep the sign above them, but this looks good without it.

 

[JimFox]

Here is mine.

First thing.... Alan... try not to cut off signs in the future...

Second, I really like the color in this one, such colorful signs and such, but still I went to B&W for some unknown reason.

Thanks Jim, good to have more entries.
