| It does pop, doesn't it? I like the composition, it has a nice, balanced feel to it. |

| Heh. I like your family portrait analogy. It is, it really is. Every time I fly to Atlanta to visit family, I drive up I-75 just so I can see this scene and feel like I'm back home. |

In PS:
Duplicate the layer (background)
Select that layer, press ALT and the box with the dot in it (bottom of layers window) this creates a black mask on that layer.
Change the blend mode to Multiply.
Select your brush tool, set to 11% opacity and choose white.
Now paint a series of lines in white across the image going from left top to bottom right so that you have a zebra pattern in the black/white.
As you apply more strokes it will get darker on the area you are painting white.
Do this at 100% OPACITY and you'll see immediately what this is accomplishing. |

I like yours better, but I have no idea how to do what you're talking about. "broad stroke burn"? "unburned 45 degree angle"? whozawhatsithow? |

Yeah, I tried something similar to that with curves and extreme USM numbers, but I felt it just looked messy rather than interesting. B&W was even more boring. I think it needs different light or sky. |

You're right,  elemess. It looks sort of flat for some reason. Maybe it is the direct sunlight, or cloudless sky. I get some that are like this. The scene looks like it should be a great image, then it just don't quite do as expected. It may have worked better earlier or later in the day. It's definitely down town Atlanta. It's nice that you have access to the capitol building! |
