Cute. I think it would work well in B&W for more of a 'bad day' feel.

Hey,

Hope you don't mind; I had a play with your image. Let me know if you want me to take it down.

I really like the shot, but I felt it needed...something.

And that something turned out to be a curves adjustment layer, a slight crop off the top, cloning out a couple of things on the ground, some contrast sharpening (unsharp mask radius: 80, amount: 10), some regular sharpening (unsharp mask radius: 1, amount: 40), and a slight vignette. Only took a minute to do.

Hi Kris,

I quite like the result of your PP - no need to remove the image.
I see it as a great example of what can be done in PP and how different people interpret or process images differently.
Thanks for your contribution.
