this is mostly for Sean who wanted to see this image in regular black and white photograph form. If you are interested in what I did to it, the other one is just called "Hac."
haha Thanks Cassie! Really like this one too. For the same reasons as the other. But I don't think I like either better or worse. I like the other one for its creativity and this for its natural beauty ..in BlackandWhite. Love them both awesome work!

My lonely image: Father and Son
To be honest, I like a mix of the two that hasn't been uploaded yet (sorry for being difficult!). I appreciate your goal in trying to make it an idea or an expression instead of life; it makes it more abstract (obviously). I also appreciate your idea of trying to have some distorting filter over everything, but I think you may have overdone it just a tidge (hence the reason I like this one). I really miss that bright glow, though... My recommendations, if you would be willing to work on it and uplaod again, would be to keep it crisp, maybe crisper (unsharp mask a tiny bit), but to add in verticle strips of distortion, maybe one big one and one or two small ones. Just big columns of grain over the image, simple as that. If you don't know how to do that, I could give a few pointers, but I am fairly certain that you are more knowledgable than I am. Keep upt he good work. :-)
