In my garage :)
Converted to b&w with gradient map and selective color adjustment underneath it. Some dodging and burning of the wood. Then played with Distort->Lens Correction, sharpen, Save for Web.

A classic style of shot that never grows old for me and extremely well executed here.

Thsi is an excellent shot - wonderful lighting, fantastic perspective using the superwide angle lens, the composition with the balls and cue to offset against the dark background - all make a winning combination. This would have been a great entry for table shot II.

It's going to be fun to see what you do with this project. This is another awesome composition and editing job from you.

Hey. . .a nice table top photo :) I love the black and white treatment of the pool table. It adds a little unique flare, especially with that interesting angle.

very nice!

I can tell from your portfolio that this image is probably exactly as you envision it. However, I'm wondering if the effect would be even more dramatic if the height of the entire picture was cropped more narrowly...

The angle on this shot is exceptional!
Bravo! A real winner in my book!

Nice angles and composition. Really like the black on white. I like this one better compositionally then your first one. This has more snap and contrast.

Great Shot! Lots of atmosphere and fabulous angle. I used to have a pool table at home - nothing better for wasting hours on end... :o)

This is one of the most intereting "table shots" I've seen! It's almost abstract with what you've done with the lighting. Very imaginitave and technically stunning indeed! Well done! 8o)

AWESOME perspective!!! Love the B&W.

Great symmetry and graphic quality. I think pool tables are ultra cool. I guess I like the combination of the round holes and the lines of the sides plus the game it initiates is fun! Great job.

WOW - this is BRILLIANT - I love how the table top seems to be floating. VERY Cool!

wow ...excellent photograph .. love the composition, and the way the table stands alone in black with no distracting background ...
