It's spelled "tomb".... :-) Beautiful photo, though.

I like the concept and I get the idea with the tomb effect, but a little too blown out and over post-processed. A little too much burn going on.

Nice shot. Interesting use of selective desat. A bit too centered for me - not sure what the big silver box on the right side adds to the image.

I am taking part in the "Comment on the first 10 photos during voting" challenge and you are photo #3

Beautiful photograph and wonderful conversion along with some nice cloud action. I am not a fan of the selective color style of photograph. I see why you went with it as the tracks and bridge really draw the eye in. Even with the sign being in color I had to force myself to look for the sign as my eye is just drawn to the center. Think a different spot (to one side) and different crop would have made for a much stronger image.

I'm afraid I'm not a big fan of selective desaturation.

I was on the fence with "loud", and when you went "jazz man" instead of "soul man" or something else that implied volume and not scatting you lost "loud" completely. Not a fan of the tinting either - unless maybe you went with "blues man"

Would be interested in seeing this with more color... the yellow sign in a world of B&W distracts me from the rest of this beautiful scene.

the desat draws attention away from where it should be.
