]Not sure which one of these I prefer, am edging towards the first one.

#1 looks odd with just a patch of red in the reflection

#2 for me, B&W reflection doesn't look right for some reason.

Two for me as well, the mono reflection doesn't quite work IMO.

yeah 2 is the better imo, I dont really get half and half stuff.
I would say about 2 is, the tarmac is annoyingly blue, could be sky reflection or a bi-product of saturation, its the only thing I feel like deducting a point for.:)
Nice shot, well composed with interest..

is that you in your av ?, you look half familiar

Like the idea of a half and half and of the two think 1 is a better picture, but as mentioned above, for some reason I can't quite put my finger on, it just doesn't look right.

Have you tried it the other way round, B&W with coloured reflection of the brolly and lad?.

Thanks for the C&C folk, was trying something different. Dont know how the colored blogs made it through editing. Used a new layer converted the bottom layer to BW and then used a large erasure tool in elements to erase the color top layer.

Thats me in the AV yes, 7miles south of Leeds?

4 miles south of Leeds, but I work in Leeds mostly, if I know you it will be from work, I get about a bit...I think the lack of hair is throwing me off a definate yay or nay

I also prefer No2. Not a big fan of selective colouring, but if I was going to do it with that shot, I would have done it the other way round, especially with the expression on your boys face. A black and white brolly with the reflection in colour.
