I think i prefer this B&W version alot more, emphasises the atmopshere and emotion alot better

I think you lose the 'school boy' effect in this version. I saw this first and didn't even recognise that it was in a school setting.

Cheers! Good work on both products!

show the contrast/disntancing : the near main subject of the two with the ball and the far-away one sitting at the corner alone
special perspective

Hmmm... they're both good. Not sure which I like better. The B&W suits the mood moreso than the color image, but the color has more aesthic appeal (love the shade of green).

What did you do aside from a simple desaturation? It looks like there were more changes than that, but I can't tell what it was.

fuckbucket In reply to jiwasz [2004-11-17 12:25:04 +0000 UTC]

i can answer that, since i edited it for him
i desaturated it, then upped the contrast using curves, then applied a "digital soft filter" photoshot equivilant of the real thing (soft filter), to do this u duplicat the layer and then gausian blur the new layer, not to much, and then reduce that layers opacity to your desire to get a look u want
u can also then increase the contrast of the blured layer to enhance the look
