you won't believe this but i prefer the desaturated color version here. i love your use of selective color in the b/w version, but i feel like the b/w tones are just a bit off here. now it could be me. i'm pretty exhausted and only had a few hours sleep last night. hope u don't mind if i play around with the b/w image. i can't believe i prefer the color version but yeah...i do. i like this image a lot actually. glad you didn't trash this one. i took one of me from the waist down. i have it...just sitting there. thought to myself..."What the hell...felt like maybe it was a silly image, but when i took it, i simply wanted to take it that way. You make me feel like maybe i'm not so silly! but your image is a helluva lot better than mine! Way to go with this one!!!! it's fabulous! :)
