I have been bored of late. With the cold weather I either cant get out for wildlife shots or insect macros or there is nothing to shoot. I dont shoot people very well so I decided to take a rather cliche picture:

Rather than post just the plain picture I played about with photoshop to come up with a 'film' look, grain, colour, etc. Let me know what you think.

The picture links to the flickr page if you want to click through to larger pictures.

Certainly cliche! LoL. But you nailed the cliche. All you need is a trip to an abandoned factory and to the railroad tracks to complete the trifecta. ;)

:lol:, I literally laughed out loud, well played sir! :p...

I like this photo, no matter how cliche it gets I think I will always like this kind of shot. Speaking of which I've never tried it before! I think I might need to do something about that :p... I also like the PP work you did, definitely has the film feel to it, very well executed all around!
