Tweaked, but not satisfied.

I haven't done one of these for ages, but it looked fun and I had a couple of moments to spare...

Will somebody else please post here - current posters have too high a statistical chance of winning, and that's not why we do it at all!!

Noir style needs a dark background.

Winner time!

photocles - grittiness achieved. i like the out of the norm approach. causes me to take the image in differently in a positive way. I like the increased visibility of the passenger too.

Glenn5995 - Great job a correcting the exposure with a great balance of detail and noise management. (This is Sky Harbor Terminal 4)

Tliivo - interesting desaturated entry #1. Just me but thinking I'd like it more all the converted. Entry #2 I agree with you. I like it and it's an interesting subtle touch with the desaturation that works for the overall image.

noelcmn - nice work with the colors and corrections.

ffking - both entries are bold and pack the punch. I really like how you brought out and attention to the reflections. I hadn't even noticed some of the 'bonus' reflections that are there, like for the sign on the right. I thought a bw would be the winner of this round because it was my subjective choice when I took my pass at it, but of your two, the color takes my vote.

Tomzohh - nicely done bw. the only thing that catches my eye to comment on is the blown detail in the signs on the left. not a deal breaker, but just saying I noticed it.

jmacias - I'm also a long time RT user, so you get bonus points for that. i like the exposure adjustment and noise control but think a could use a little more rotation/perspectice correction.

Tas - i don't noir why but i like it! nicely done.

So which entry do I like best? I'm sorry ffking, but it's your color entry, despite your successful effort to be diluted in your statistical chances of being selected. Congrats!

Oh no! What have I done!

Thanks Todd for a really fun picture to play with - you can tell it's going to be fun when you know immediately what you're going to do with it, but I found new things in it as I played around as well - and thanks for your insightful comments on all the entries as well - I find myself noticing things I might have otherwise missed, and getting new ideas as a result, as I'm sure others do.

I'll trawl through the files and see if I can come up with a new challenge later today, hopefully
