Like the concept, but it is very grainy, lil too much for my flavor.

XO,

Thanks alot for your input XO, I think I will try some other variations of the same shot in PP.

Here is a color version.

great idea.
the colour's the better version but I think I tight crop on the canoeist would be great (obviously show some sand) as he seems to have great character.

It appears the noise is in the sky in the original color version, do you remember what ISO setting this was?

XO,

[douglas]

Thanks for your input everyone. XO my ISO was set at 80, my camera doesnt always cooperate with sky real well.

Here is a little tighter crop and i tried to smooth out the sky some.

Hehe...I like it. Maybe a closer crop in B&W with not much grain...just a thought.


Nice job.

I like the composition on this. The smooth version in color works for me. Unfortunately, humor does not typically go over real well in these challenges.

I don't know...I think the humor is a nice break sometimes. One of my favorite challenges here was the "Humor" challenge. It brings some creativity to the table instead of just "getting the perfect shot". Just my two cents.
