Nice capture. I'm not really fond of the effects put on it, though. I think a nice, crisp shot would look better.

[Don Schaeffer]

The ordinary shot was boring. This was a happy accident.

[EverlastingImpressions]

Okay. That was just my opinion.

Have you tried black and white?

[chaman]

Agree with Ever. Its a nice candid, spontaneous shot. The excess of effects, saturation etc, takes away from what the real main theme should be...two friends. Not two persons seating at the cafeteria surrounded by....a psychedelic environment...thats just my opinion of course.

[DrRoebuck]

I doubt that's a boring shot. Can you post the original?

[Don Schaeffer]

the original

[danic]

I agree with you Don, something had to be done and I do like it compared to the original.

[Don Schaeffer]

I think (and you guys might disagree) you sometimes have to take a photo out of this world to make it work.

I would really like to see this photo in black and white. I think it would look better that way because it is kind of an old (for lack of a better word) type setting. Maybe it is the color that is stealing the effect of the picture. Good job on capturing the candid shot.

top shot is better don for sure the only thing i do not like is the fuss around the subjects.

[Don Schaeffer]

Call it a cartoon. But look at the sharpness. You can see the veins in the man's hand.
