The Bar Is Closed by TwoPynts

"Making your way in the world today Takes everything you've got Taking a break from all your worries Sure would help a lot Wouldn't you like to get away Sometimes you want to go Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came You want to be where you can see Our troubles are all the same You want to be where everybody knows your name..." ~ from Where Everybody Knows Your Name by Gary Portnoy and Judy Hart Angelo
Here is a selectively colored power which inspired me with the reflection of the mural in the bar's polished surface. I toned and grained the image on a new layer to give it a feel similar to an old photo and then went in and gradually erased some of that layer to reveal the original underneath, until I got what you see here. I'd like to dedicate this to two very active members of our community who joined us not to long ago but have already make a big impression here with their creative vision and friendly ways -- Janiss and Zorg1955. This photo may be of a subject matter they appreciate, don't you think? ;'P If you would like to see the original color version, click here: Bar Reflections. {---link Please view this full size ~ and have a great weekend! ------

Impressive shot. Reflections are everywhere with such precisions that you are tempted to check every reflected detail.

Having now seen both it's hard to choose. I think the reflections are so defined here. I really like it. BJ

The selective coloring works very well here, leads your eye right where it is supposed to be without being distracted by too much color. Wonderful POV and location. Wonderful!

I agree there is a large composite. Great shot. I feel like I'm just sitting at the end of the bar waiting for my drink.
