It doesn't look like it's raining but the umbrella is a nice touch. The led street lighting looks a tad too blue but I really like this scene, Peter!

Agree that the blue is a bit OTT but other than that it's nice and atmospheric.

Thanks Dave! It actually was raining and on the full res you can see the water streaks near the light. I agree about the blue being OTT, what do you feel about the new version?

Thanks John, new toned-down version for your thoughts!

Personaly I like the first photo even if it is a bit blue. IMO they make a nice offset to the other colors. But overall I like the photo a lot.

Ah, thanks Michael, I have to admit, the original has a visual punch the toned down version lacks. Decisions, decisions...

Well, it looks more natural but I got to agree the edit has taken the edge off it. I suppose a little artistic licence never did any harm

Thanks Dave. Yeah, in this case on balance, a little OTT I think I'll accept.

Just playing around... decided to try muting it and see if that helps make it a better shot. But I think they're all heading for the bin!

Don't bin it, Peter! If my shot it would be a keeper for sure. After all I said above I think this is the best one. The subdued tones give it more mood in my opinion. Nice one

The last one works for me

Yes, I do agree, it's all the better for being toned down. Thanks for the feedback!

What about these 2 quick edits?

 

[bootneckstu]

I like the shot, but not sure about the blue.
The two edits from abandonedbritain are great.

Great shot Nick

Thanks but don't agree with the new edits.

Thanks, but no thanks, sorry! I have played around with a harsher contrast etc, but in the end they all felt a little too harsh for a 'misty night' feel to me.

No probs, all just down to personal taste

That last edit from abandonedbritain combined with the orange of the leaves in the original could be great. I feel like the leaves are almost the subject and a leading line to the lady with her umbrella. When you mute the photo too much you lose that subject!

Can anybody make that edit^^ happen?

 

[KelvinPayne]

I like the first editing. And also the editings from adandonedbritain.

 

[Norkie]

I like the muted version, and the monochrome

 

[reheat module]

Liking the muted image the best from the set.
It adds an element of mystique with the added emphasis on the fog.
I'd be well happy to see that in either my portfolio or a Club Comp.

Love the shot. I like the blue!
