Locked Out....

[Amfamora]

Just found one of the first photos I ever took after getting my DSLR... thought I would give it a bit of a rework in CS4... It appeals to me trying to emphasise the lock and chain without using selective colour.. Desturating it and adding contrast gives it a gritty appeal that I like...

Let me know what you think!

I prefer the original. Colour appeals to me with this for some reason. Perhaps increase contrast and blacks to get that gritty dark look?
