    Sing, Sing Out Loud

    I found this shot interesting, but is it too busy? Any other suggestions?

    I don't think it's too busy if you're trying to convey a chorus, and by the title I would guess that you are. Why did you choose B&W? Did the color make it look too busy for you?
    I like it and I like the title.

    Heres the color shot. It just doesn't work as well for me, I think because it is too busy.

    Arne,

    For me, I don't know that I'd say it's too busy, but there doesn't seem to be someplace for the eye to land - a focal point. It's like you wander around the shot trying to find something, but it's not there. Does that make sense?

    I think the b&w looks good. Probably could use a little more contrast though. Very grey through the whole shot. Also the bottom left corner has something in it that was much closer to the lens. Maybe clone that out.

    Yeah, B&W all the way. The upper part is a little out of focus but a wonderful idea.

    Re: Sing, Sing Out Loud

    Amazing how different they look from each other. I think maybe the color one, but half way desaturated. Just a wild guess!

    'In the mix' shots like this are interesting ...

    Re: Sing, Sing Out Loud

    Black and white is way better. I think it suffers a bit from a lack of focal point.
