Betsy and Pat touring Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. In spite of the sunshine, it was one damn cold day to be outside shooting.
Thanks for stopping by.

I like the composition, but the B&W conversion leaves me a little flat - what if you bumped contrast, levels, and/or did some selective color on the orange bricks??

@Betsy Barron : www.thebetsy.com: After looking at this image again, I think I have to agree, it does look flat and does need an additional contrast bump. I think adding selective color to the subjects would work better than to the bricks. I believe adding color to the bricks would divert the eye from the main subjects.
I like the perspective. My 2 cents would be to add a hint of sepia and bump up the contrast a little.I haven't been up to Jim Thorpe in forever, but I remember it being very picturesque.
