amazing setting. I assume this is an amusement park, but still I must give high marks for evoking the western so well. I love the processing.

There is a mysterious story here. Why is he holding a revolver? What is the dust? Where is he? I suspect this was shot at a wild west reenactment of some sort and this is just part of the scene.

JuliettNN??


I normally like to see faces of people to get that emotional element, and read the image through that emotion.

This image is that rare few that I love where the face is not seen, but the body language takes over.

Excellent job on this story telling image.

The environment, the set, the atmosphere, and the texture are excellent, the sepia brings that aged, period feel.

Do it again.

Well done Juliet. You turned this image into much more than it was at first. It just feels good and very fitting for the challenge on all fronts. I hope your score holds up strong. There is no reason it shoudnt.
