Taken at the Pike Place Market in Seattle during Lunch.
Non Crop
Some Curves adjustments (a bunch of times).
As a result of all my curve adjustments, I had a hard time making this fit in 150k with Capture NX.
Pretty difficult shot for me, as there are three light sources (incandescent bulbs, florescent overhead lights, and day light streaming in from the side). Considering basic editing, I managed as best I could.
As for appeal, it is okay. Missing that special something. But finally have some time with the busy schedule at work and at home to go out and take some shots.

I very much like it. Too often things here are simplified too much - here there's enough to see to make the picture interesting and pleasing. The eye can wander and take in the sights. Love the overhanging lights! And your post is very good as far as I can tell.
