Bien sûr, je ne sais pas quel était le projet , mais elle est superbe comme ça. Ces choses en déshérance qui touchent sans que l'on sache pourquoi....

It is indeed a sad shot, and despite your photoshop woes, I think it still came out ok.

Yeah, I wouldnt be down about this, its a very atmospheric and emotive image. Forlorn and abandoned. The B&W is very nice Cyrille. It's a fine capture.

Don't kick yourself, Cyrille! This is great: dark and mysterious, this ghostly bike that travels without wheels...

I think its very good, slightly disturbing, wheels sunk in soft asphalt or sliced off? I have a terrible time with Photoshop too. I'm trying to learn it with Italian interface ARGH!! I'll post a photo tomorrow with similar attempt in black and white.

I quite agree with everyone's sentiments: it is well done, despite your doubts.

I don't really like to work too much with Photoshop...I tend to be pretty conservative with it, because I like preserving the excitement of the original shot. But who knows. Maybe I just haven't learned the joys of photo processing.
