hey guys, i posted this here not so long ago, but now i have done it in sepia (thanks to digitalmatt for telling me how :thumbsup: ), and was wandering what you guys think is better? thanks

I think the new one looks better. Nice work.

yep sepia tone really works for it ... but would like to see the rear piece not directly behind the knight a little distracting!


great dof though :thumbsup:

Great work mate, both are brilliant...but I defenetly love your sepia.

hehe..youve got a new fan methinks

 

[Digital Matt]

Both look great. I can't decide which I like better. I'm a fan of both b&w and sepia.

It's a tough one to decide cuz they are both great! : )

 

[Rob A]

thanks very much, all of you!! i quite like the sepia personally although i am a huge fan of black and white! i think it goes with the subject! thanks again for all of your replies!

i mite take some more with the queen more to the left so its no directly behind it! thanks!

I like both and after flipping back and forth for a few minutes, I dediced I like the sepia better.

I really love b&w but this one the sepia got me. Nice job. I agree that the queen could be moved just a little to be less distracting.

I agree with errant star on the placement of the second piece.

The sepia tone looks better than b/w Nice.

another vote for the sepia :thumbup:
btw, now that you know how to make a picture sepia, can u tell me how to do it

yup in photoshop, i went to Hue/Saturation adjustment (i think its in images - adjustments) and the checked colourise, then put the Hue to 40 and the saturation to 20. hope that helps!
