Feeling Brave, hit or miss!

The original image couldnt be saved to much of a disaster, but because of the shape , I really felt it deserved something.

Now my other half said this is awful lol so why am I posting, well I like it, might be a little dark but I just did, not really one for fiddling with all the extras on the GIMP but what do you think

Hit or complete disaster? was thinking of it in terms of a large canvas print

Looks like the headless rider Its different and I'm sure it will appeal to some. Taste in photos runs such a wide spectrum.

Re: Feeling Brave, hit or miss!

I actually do like this! Although I think I would lose the selective colour in the middle and leave it completely mono.

Re: Feeling Brave, hit or miss!

I'm gonna go down the middle just to be different.... but I'm on the no side of middle, sorry!

Main prob is the dark head, if we could see the rider's face it would make a big difference.

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Feeling Brave, hit or miss!

It's a Ringwraith. They don't have proper heads - just piercing red eyes which you can't see in this shot because he's looking at his, er, saddle or something. I've read all this somewhere at least three times so it must be true.

Re: Feeling Brave, hit or miss!

Sorry, that doesn't do anything for me at all. Might suit some arty types but wouldn't get anywhere near my wall <g>

Normally love your stuff but this one is gonna have to be an exception

Cheers,
Rob
