    I think you should layer it and drop the opacity of the two guys and make them like ghosts.

    I rather like this! Or rather I like the mood and atmosphere of it. I would leave the two genetlemen just as they are, although I would be inclined to clone out the ghostly half-person just above them. Also, I wonder if an inch of the right would hurt? Still, it's one of those images which repays staying with it and soaking up the details. I see more in it everytime I look.

    Cheers

    Re: Small talk

    I would personally clone out the men, and the half man as stated before. The fact that they moved while the photo was being exposed bothers me. But to be honest, the first thing that drew my eye was the fantastic color on the right of the photo. It took me a minute to think about the title and then see the men in the photo.

    Re: Small talk

    Thanks guys. This was a 30 second exposure, imagine being still for all that time. lol. The guys did well not moving much not knowing I was filming them. The title, usually i come up with it as I'm uploading the file. It's not important. Thanks! :-)

    I think I would like it better if the two men were in focus and that BMW in the parking lot was eliminated, Other than that I like it, the colors and the angle.
