I like this one, it reminds me of an old colorized film photo. It's not a color photo though, it's a basic edit duotone. Infact, the unedited color photo probably could have passed for a b/w because it was such un ugly grey day devoid of all color. Just coverted to b/w, then added a blueish green hue, and then contrast.
What a great and very subtle "S" - love that I had to look for it. The placement of the horizon and the windsurfer are on the money. Can't wait to see the other 25 letters from you!
Excellent use of duotone. And yes, they work well with ugly gray blown sky kinda days. Somehow they add a richness and depth to an otherwise somewhat flat picture. This indeed works very well. Nicely done.
