I like the simplicity. Black and white was a good call

Lovely, though for me I felt it needed a little curves adjustment. This still isn't exactly right to my eye, but I think it's in the right direction.

Personal opinion, of course.

btw, I also think you might be able to crop a tiny bit off the left to improve the balance a hair.

Thanks so much for the edit Bunny

I tinkered with the crop a lot and I think you got it more right than I did, amazing how big of a difference a little makes

Ah, the depth, and contrast. This is actually a bit embarrassing... There is an awesome dark version of this in there but as I'm sure you saw as you played there are multiple spots from my sensor that appear when it's stopped down in post and I wasn't up for that much cleanup

Give it to me. I'll fix it.

It's too good of an image not to do it the right way, damnit.

BTW, clean your sensor and stop changing lenses while hanging out car door windows, damn you.

On the crop... when I was doing it, I noticed that you can only take so much off the top/left before hurting it, so I did that and then switched to bottom left. This cuts off some of the footprints, which my instinct told me "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" but then I realized I could lose a little bit of them without hurting the image at all.

It's really a lovely shot.
