welcome to POTN. Nice shot. I like the solitary feel you've got. As for 'look'...it's in the eye of the beholder. As I said, nice shot. For me, I would try and back off the exposure just a pinch. Depending on what that already brings out, I would look at maybe boosting color slightly. On the opposite end, this might look good in BW as well. The beauty of digital is you can play around:) Enjoy the new camera!!

Welcome to POTN. I would also like to see this in B&W.


All I want is just a little more than I'll ever have.

I was also thinking B&W might be good on this one.

I like the exposure for the foreground. Maybe use the burn tool in PS for the background but otherwise a nice shot! Welcome to POTN and good luck with your new camera ;).

I like it, might just be my taste but maybe add a little contrast in to make it pop some more?

You've got image editing marked ok, so I thought I'd give it a shot....again, it was nice to start with....

Color with exposure backed off and color enhanced.

BW a bit more contrasty
