I was playing around a bit last night and did up these 2 images and 2 different versions of each. Which do you prefer and why? I am building a phot gallery for my site and I am not sure which to put up there. Magick Michael aka zhounder

Version 2 of the Train Station...

Why can't you put both in instead? :-) I like 'em both but I prefer the duo version more though. The contrast is awesome. (*

The whole style of the building and wagony thing in front (see, student of history) pulls you back to the old days. The b&w/duotone one just sort of fits with it. I don't know how comfortable you are with PS'ing beyond standard stuff, but I'd probably go in and clone out the wire (phone?) going diagonally along the top of the roof. Distracting; but that may just be me.

Actually I did clone out a whole car. The phone line should be a breaze after that! Magick Michael aka zhounder

I like the feel of the sepia better... Did try desturating it a bit? the yellows seem a bit strong IMHO :-)
