Holy color shift, batman! Really nice work to bring out the chrome feel of this! No idea what it is, but like the composition.

I like your editing. This version is much cleaner and more eye-catching.

Wonderful B&W conversion, this looks so much better as chrome! Very cool shapes, love the reflection :-)

Ah... such alchemy, turning brass into silver :D

Nice edit. I prefer the monochrome to your original, and the contrast is excellent.

A duel sp. LOL! Works great in chrome and has an almost musical feel to it!

Works well in B&W... the reflections are a bit distracting...

I like your edited version a whole heap better than the original Ken. The chrome seems to give a much classier feel to the image and the black background works better with the DOF. IMHO
