Cool faux Lensbaby! Maybe I'm looking at a "revised" shot, but I don't mind the bright colors in the lower left. They are sort of an arrow leading to the clown's face. Cool shot.
not sure about BW - it will take away from the clown persona. I could tone down the bright red in the corner though, that's a good point, although I kinda like the bright red dash there
I'm thinking b&w might work better. The colors in lower left are very intense and steal from the clowns expression. Nice timing and I like the lensbaby effect.
Lev, came back to look again. Did you tone it down a little? For some reason it appears a little softer. Either way, great shot!
