On Duty

Guarding the capital and the Great Monument, he stood there at the ready. Great silhouette of the on duty policeman as he overlooks the capital. This is a slightly above average shot but increasing the dynamic range of the B&W tones would bump it into the exceptional category. Aside for the silhouette of the officer the rest of the photo appears a bit flat in the range of tones. Playing with Brightness/Contrast or adjust Shadows/Highlights/Midtones would greatly help boost the dynamic range. I would say that playing with the elusive S-curve would do the trick as well, but I still have not figured out how to do that in PP.

Funny, there's also one in the warm colours challenge. But I think it belongs here. A beautiful photo, I hope to see the cherry blossoms in Washington one day.
