Urban Cowboys

[Angelo]

I think there's something to be had here but not sure if I've captured it. I'd appreciate your opinions. No post work other than a little contrast enhancement. Thanks.

I think you right about there being something there. I see it from the front with the setting sun shining in from behind.

The image as it is, is a bit dark to my taste. I like the sign, and the light that shows behind it, but the lower left part of dark light bothers me a bit. Perhaps the lighting situation as Eric suggest would help at that.

I think you are right, I too like the silhouette of the cowboys. I'm seeing a tighter crop to get rid of the buildings and power lines. Some color changes for drama and the silhouette may stand out loudly.

Just an idea,
Chris

Thanks Eric. I don't remember why I limited my shot to this side version. I'll take a new look straight on.

Thank you Marlof - not sure how I'd address that; it is as it was, dark because it was dusk and I want to preserve the light behind the cowboy figures. I'll give it another try. Thanks for looking.

Thanks Chris - I felt that the setting lent to the "urban" theme. I've tried cropping tight and get "just another sign" IMHO. Color change??? I hadn't thought of that; I'll go take a few more shots to address all the suggesstions and also try yours. Thanks for taking time to look.

here's another try

I like this one better Angelo, nice pic:thumb I like how it looks like the cowboys are ghosts sitting up in the clouds. Well done!!
