Flying kite

roygoh · 17th August 2004

Caught this at Gasworks Park (Seattle) yeaterday.

This is the original shot which is very close to the actual view:

And this is after some serious level pushing in PS:

Would like to know if the photo works for you at all, and whether you prefer the original or the edited version.

Thanks!

Roy

the editted reminds me of Strom, pink floyd's famous designer.

but i'm not too sure about the presence of the 2nd string with no kite at its end.

Guess I could have PSed away the string that is leading to nowhere. Thanks for your comments!

as of now, i'm in a very clear light blue skies mood... so the first one gets my vote.

The second one gets my vote.
The colours made it less dull and more vibrant.

Nice juxtaposition and it projects the subject of kite flying very clearly.

Good capture.
