Yeah guys, just trying out something different for me, getting a bit braver in terms of editing.

Tried a bit of new things in terms of editing on this older pic I took... I'm not sure if I like it better than my usual way of editing. The difference to my usual way is quite subtle though.

From top to bottom:

Out of cam,
my usual way,
what I did just now,
and with a bit of cleaned up background

What's your guys opinion on this?

#2 is almost perfect. Desaturate it a little bit and add like... THE SOFTEST lens flare possible on the left side and you'll have a real winner.

Here's my take on it:

Hm... kay guys, I appreciate the honest opinion.

Thanks mojo for your thoughts, but I don't really like the added flare you did.

Here's another one I tried doing a bit different technique on... trying to achieve some kind of cross processing look, I think I like it.
