I think this image needs a little help somewhere along the line. I used the Diffuse Glow to give it that otherworldly look, but I'm not sure about it #636192

Having seen the original, I lean toward that as my favorite. It's a great shot but my preference would be the sharper image. Why not post that and see what others say? #4545763

I'll try to post the original when I can find the original file or rescan the negative. My photos are a bit of a mess right now. The blurriness is actually a filter in Photoshop and I was originally trying to hide some clutter in the background. #4557146

Mike, despite the blur, you have some great linear elements and fantastic design elements. These are very eye catching and that shape of black on the top heightens the drama!! #4580568

Great lines and shapes, but I tend to agree with David on the blur. It is also a wee bit tilted to the left, which is a distraction to me. #4580830

Thanks Melissa and Anne, I will be revisiting this negative in the near future with your advice in mind. I was trying to revive it with Photoshop, but maybe I just didn't see it. I'll rescan it and also look at the tilt. Thanks for the encouragement. #4584611

Hi Mike, I think the composition is great for this image. I almost tend to agree that I would love to see the sharper image to have a comparison. #4803091

Thanks Cynthia. Thankfully, I have found the original scan and will be posting it in the next week or two when work calms down a bit and I get Photoshop on my desktop and not just my laptop. #4804546
