Very well done... The photoshop effect turned out great. The only real problem in my opinion is the red of the tail light of the passing car (Though i realize theres nothing you could have done about that by dpchallenge rules)
nice use of channel desaturation. i can't believe people even get called on this anymore. not sure it's standard photojournalist procedure, but it definitally works for the shot.
I'm not sure the selective color was necessary here, as there isn't much to draw attention away from the subject as it is. Composing the image from the other side, to include the long shadows of the cross and candle, mioght have been a good idea.
Very sad isn't it? This is a simple composition that makes me feel emotion. I'd call that successful. The coloring is very good. I think it all could be a little sharper. Overall I like it. Best of luck in the challenge. Please remember to keep an open mind when voting. Grayce aka Gracious
There's too much of this now days, especially for our teenagers. Nice shot. I'm assuming your color is legal. I'm sure it's been questioned. Good execution and good composition. Nice crop. Nice focus Good subject. PTL7
