The B&W is nice, but the blue tone is what drew me here in the first place. It gives off a sneaking-in-the-dark-under-a-full-moon kind of look. Excellent job mergring the photos together... I would have never noticed!

I agree with Mary. Blue to me is a relaxing colour, I would have liked to see this kinda red or something. But it's a great work anyway!

too silvery and cool - I still want it grittier - how about some grain (I know I am obnoxious).

Hi Mary & Dave:
Always on the lookout for a more complicated way to do things in PS, I didn't just destaturate this. Instead, I converted to Grayscale, created a quadtone, used the color picker to select black, white and two shades of gray, then used duotone curves adjustments to jigger the tones. In the end I came up with.... something that's probably visually no different from a simple desat., but involved ever so many fullfilling keystrokes.

Jim, I can sense you are a big fan of blue, but I must concur with Mary here. I'd love to see this in an alternate treatment or perhaps even just a simple b&w. Of course, that's subjective opinion. On its own, the composition is powerful and emotive. Bravo.

The comp is good and the PS work is, of course, outstanding - what I wonder about is the color - blue is a cool color which creates emotional distance imo. How about something less obvious than red? Brownish yellows, muddy oranges and sick (yellowish greens) - controlled and applied variably?

the composition could be improved by placing the foreground subject a bit on the left; lighting may cause a flattening effect to that give a loss of distance fore/back ground. Very original though, may be blue casting is too much obvious, may be red or purple color should contrast well with the subject of the shot
