Took this and did not like it as the background was too cluttered.
C&C please on new background and the general PP of the shot.

Mar 07, 2014 07:48 | #2 You did a pretty good job of cut & paste for the casual observer; but you left some green bg in the lower left around the edges of the frame; and the bg should be blurred a bit I think. -- Image Editing OK --

Yeah a little bit of work still needed to remove original background. Will blur background even more. Illegitimi non carborundum --- as they said in Roman times ---

In the post processed version you've over sharpened the main subjects and I find the details in the building distracting. David

Mar 11, 2014 17:42 | #7 I think you went a little overboard with the clarity slider slider and sharpening in the second one. What about just an aggressive vignette to cleanup the first one a little?

I couldn't have resisted doing so. Me too. The building in the back kind of clashes with the helmet. I love #1 tho. Ex-Canon shooter. Now Sony Nex.

Apr 29, 2014 08:02 | #10 for all that work, the building is nothing but a distraction... the first image is much better - especially with @randman's processing Light L16: http://lightRumors.co
