Hmm... This is a pretty interesting photo... at first glance, it looks like it was meant to be a B&W photo and then there are the splashes of colour here and there! I reallly like the harsh shadows too... goes well with the photo. Any special PP techniques here?

This processing called the Pio filter. :)

Another nice one Pio. He doesn't look real happy that you took his pic. :)

Pio, love it MAN:o:o! This really captures the feel of that area well (I have been at that exact spot many times). The pp is fantastic and the fact that you got THAT guy (who's paying top dollar of course) is perfect.

Another wonderful shot. My eyes were first drawn to the girl on the bike, then to that unhappy looking fellow with the sign. The pp is amazing.

top shot Pio, your process has given this image a very 3D look and the elements of the shot are excellent.....I wonder where his shop is, some back alley maybe lol.

Hey thanks for the kind comments, all! Sorry for this late reply, I have been quite busy this past week and it is only now that I have had the time to respond here. The PP is the usual desat, D&B but with a twist - I rendered the photo in high key contrast in RSE before importing it into PSCS for the final processing.

The guy was glaring at me, but I largely ignored him when I was taking the photo. He wasn't sure if he was the subject of the photo since the lens (wide angle) wasn't really pointing at him.

Thanks again all.
