The white balance on your HDR is a bit off - the grayish tones on the back of the guy's jacket is a dead giveaway. You also have a bit too much dead space with all the sidewalk in the foreground, it makes the people "target centered," but not in a very dynamic way. A slight crop would help that.

Sorry author, but I have to agree with Mossy here...this HDR appears a bit "over-cooked" IMHO...perhaps that was the look you were going for? But the halo is rather distracitng

Actually, I find the lighting interesting, but, the angle has much to be desired...we are all used to seeing chairs from this angle...perhaps a different angle would have made this a really special shot. Just food for thought author

I think the lighting has introduced some chromatic abberation (purple finging) on the left hand side of the image (though my home PC is broken and a bit hard to see properly on my uncalibrated work machine). I think this may have been better with the aerial on the 2 way radio as without it, you will definitely be out of touch - perhaps even a little more 'breathing space top and bottom of the subject.

Personally, I don't think the lighting does a lot for the chair or the photograph.

The tagline blends into the water too much, making it somewhat hard to read. If you adjust the color so it matches the outboard, it will be a bit more dynamic.

You can easily create a fill fight using a small mirror.Place the mirror on the exact oposite direction of your ligh source & the dark parts ot your subject will be more visible without nusty shadows

Nice lighting, but too yellow an overall tint - it looks somewhat jaundiced - a common problem with incandescent lighting. A cooling filter or color adjustment would help this.

Ghost of a tricycle
avatar MossyB
MossyB says:

I thought it might be two cats...This could really be a much stronger image if you gave it a bit of a color correction for the yellow tint from the incandescent lighting, and adjusted the levels enough to show the secret agent resting for his next assignment...

Actually, just applying a cooling filter to compensate for the yellow tint brings out the contrasts enough for the cat to separate himself from the chair and occupy it, rather than meld with it.

I would be suggesting to make it in sepia, to give a bit more "old" photo like, but the main object itself tells the story of discarded vehicle - well done, love the use of lighting
