I really like this photo, despite the androgynous woman. They both have a very genuine smile on their faces, and look very happy. Nice photo.

That is very cool. I have no idea how to do something like this, but I can only imagine the amount of time it takes. Looks like a hybrid painting/photograph.

I agree with Melethia... this one is better because of the wider view. I am unsure about the observation deck however. There is a lot going on in the shot, so I didnt notice it at first, but even now that I know its there, I dont find it a distraction because it isnt very bright or prominent, so I still end up looking at the buildings/sky/sunset.

What building where you on when you took this photo? (yes... If I am ever in NY I hope to try it myself)

What a great shot... his eyes are intense. I agree about the green cast... the original photo seemed to have a red cast (though... my monitor is far from being calibrated itself). One way to overcome any of that without calibrating your monitor would be to convert this to black and white.

This is my favourite of the three edits, although, I would prefer if the boy was a little brighter. Have you tried doing a brightness layer, and masking out everything but the boy.

Even without the extra brightness, I really like the emotion in this shot. It really does a good job a kid being a kid.

I like this version much better. The contrast adds to the photo, creating a much more interesting background. Border helps too.

I find that the storefront title and the photographer work really well together. Either it was coincidence that she was there in front of the store for you, or you were staking it out for hours, waiting for the right opportunity. Nice photo overall. The colours and sharpness were enhanced nicely, and this might also look nice in black and white.

I thought this shot was a very nice way of interpreting the challenge. Congrats on your excellent result.

Such a stunning photo, just wish I could see it larger. I like the crop you chose, but perhaps a different crop would have allowed the image to be larger, and might have given you a higher score. 8 from me.

Subtle Changes: Day to Night

I was only able to see the differences in makeup after having read the title. The black and white conversion took away from the colour, and also from conveying the before and after.
