Great shot, Bob! Processing is just the right touch, too.

looks pretty cool Bob :) One of the reasons why I thought you should try this in black and white was because of the yellow cast you had in the other edited picture. You could still play with that one and see what happens if you desat some of the yellow. I'm looking forward to see your baseball pics this year!

Oooh ok now, go black and white with this, darken the left side - I think that would look really cool.

The expression on their faces really seems to jump out of this photo. The next thing for you to try now is to either mask the Topaz out of the background or soften it - I find that makes the foregroup pop out even more. OH! And whenever you are Topazing a portrait, run the original thru the noise reducing software first. I find that makes quite a difference.

I like the processing and the texture of his skin. Just missed the sweet spot with the focus!

I gave this a 6 but I cannot remember why now. I think I enjoyed the unsual poses. Made me wonder if a little partying was going on, maybe? :)
