That's excellent, Bill. I love the lines, the composition, the motion blur.
Now I'm going to break the chain and tell you that I don't care for the sepia toning. Sepia shouldn't tone the blacks, IMHO. The brown tone makes me think of the "Olde Tyme" photos one gets at an amusement park. I suppose this is a matter of taste, and I do seem to be a very small minority here. So take that with a fistful of salt. Otherwise, it's gorgeous, and I'd not hesitate to hang it on my wall. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
