Is that lightning photo? Im not really sure if the grain on image is effect of darkness of after procesing. I would prefer to see bit more quality in your shot.
hmmm ... artsy and then I saw the little lightning bolt or whatever that is. This has an apocolypyic feeling and I think the noisy feeling actually helps this one.
Film grain would add a factor of mood to this photo, but the digital grain in this photo is distracting. I would suggest running it through neatimage to clean things up and make the viewer focus on the subject
The noise in this images actually gives it a very edgy feel! The more I look at it, the more I like it. The red lights are a bit distracting but there is a definite mood here. Nice! 8o)
Rural Electric Association - (I had to Google it). I hope that's what you mean - like the photo a lot. I'm usually not a 'noise' person but it totally works here. Great job...10
Interesting effect. Looks more like a graphic than an image. I'll be curious to learn more about how you did this after the challenge is over. Honestly, I'm not sure if I like it in this context (photo challenge) as it seems a bit over the top. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.
Far to much noise in the picture. I dont know if that was intetional, but its not working for me. Many photo editing tools have features to remove unvanted noise.
