Untitled (for now)
This is one from our most recent UK get together.
I have done a bit of work on it and I am happy that it has improved the image. As well as a critique I would like a title for it and I wouls welcome suggestions. I would love the word "Seduction" to be in the title if possible but without sounding pretentious.
But what I would value most is your critique.

Tom, I already commented somewhat on this image in the UK thread in Viewfinder. I think this is excellent. It is deep, alluring, well composed. Subtle and yet bold enough to bring us a wow factor. I like this alot.
I have thought of "Fantasies over coffee" "The seduction" "The Allure of a Morning Coffee" somethings like that. I'm sure others will have better ideas.
Great Tom, your eye never fails to find the buried treasures . . .

Re: Untitled (for now)
Thanks so much Gary. The jury is now closed on the title jobbie and "fantasies over coffee" is absolutely brilliant and is just what I wanted but was unable to come up with. Anything I thought of with "seduction" just did not pull out what was in my head. Thanks also for liking the shot.

I like the layers overlay but think the top one could be a little softer and if you know how remove the square edges so that the images floats more.
I'm not sure seduction works here. The coffee drinker looks a little stalkeresk to me.

Well done Tom. It looks very muck like something Tuna would do. I like it all the way around and can't say anything that would make it better. Well spotted.

Hey Tom -
I echo the other comments. It's a contradiction - Looks like a coffee house, but the woman looks like she's posing for a sexy ad, and ... Sexy Coffee? Hmm. Maybe a new dating service ad, "Meet Single Professionals for Lunch!", or maybe it's just Starbuck's new image to stir things up? :D
Anyway - I do like what you did with the two layers. I would however offset the woman image just a little, it's too close to horizontally centered, I think. Perhaps fade the sides a bit instead of the hard edges.. the fade may or may not work. I'm also thinking one more element here - but what?

Re: Untitled (for now)
Thanks GB Greg and Jim B.
Thanks for taking the time and I am glad it works for you.
This is a straight from the camera shot with only some very basic PS work (saturation on the blues, levels adjustment on the lower part and finally a little sharpenning) carried out.

Mysterious and sublime. An absolutely wonderful image - no title needed.
