Happy to get feedback about the framing as well. For presentation to you I decided to choose the same style. For the Monthly Assignment there will only be a single entry.
I have my favorite but curious what you guys think.
Thanks everyone for their input. I am glad that a number of the images work well.
My personal favorites are the Ferrari Lights blue-toned image and the BW Ducati image. However, I decided that the Ducati image was "mixed" with too much carbon fiber.
Looks like a number of strong entries. Voting begins Sept 1.
Thanks again.
Thanks for adding your opinions.I am glad several images vie for favorite among you guys and others commenting. And among my off-line friends, photographers.
I decided to use the Ferrari Lights I think out of a combination of feedback, my own personal like, and also because I feel it fell into the Most Improved category, requiring the most processing and finesse to finish the image. And I love BW interpretations, although the actual lights were pretty mono-chromatic anyhow.
Here is the starting image, unprocessed, downsized from RAW to jpeg.
