 I had a successful week shooting so choosing an image was difficult. I went with this photograph because I believe duotone coloring improved it. With my others images I couldn't justify why a duotone treatment was needed. This photograph reminds me of painter Franz Kline's abstract expressionist work.

Not much processing was needed besides cropping and toning. I left all the noise and imperfections.

Yes. Whether it was inspiration or observation, Kline is certainly present here.
