Singled Out

I'm not a stalker. Really, I'm not. This is about the only usable 'street' image that I shot yesterday. When I transferred the images to the computer, I was struck by the sharp focus on this woman amongst the blurred, fast-paced surroundings. So, I decided to bring her out even more by converting everything else to B&W. I'm really happy with the result.

He said... she said...

• Good shot. Very effective selective coloring.

• The result is amazing. You should be pleased. I tend to read the expressions of people and she is either uncomfortable in this crowd or unhappy about something. You captured a lot in this photo

• Sort of reminds me of one of Sinems shots - http://www.suby.shutterchance.com/photoblog/1494.htm - I would have made the woman stand out a little bit more by sharpening or increasing contrast. Suby

• This is another one that’ll be exhibited at the trial, Heath, but you’ll get a coupla years knocked off for ace photography, that’s for sure . . . . Great stuff + love the color treatment.

• Really great photo and processing.
  She really stands out.
  It looks like she's the only blonde in the photo too so that enhances your idé of making her stand out. Great work!
