Thanks Lydia & Melbob, these comments means a lot coming from you two
Lydia - I don't mind and thanks for the kind words both on my work and especially on my boys :-)
Regarding Melbob's comment I tried boosting up the contrast but after playing with it I found this to be the optimal level. ~ AM
I think this is a beautiful composition and really poignant. Great B & W conversion and interesting story to tell.
For this challenge ( and considering "... how far can you go... aspect) it could afford to have the contrast boosted a little more but not so as to detract from the serenity that this image displays.
Great post ~ Regards Melbob
Beautiful... so fluid feeling with the shapes of their bodies running into each other and going in the opposite direction. Lovely boys, too. (If you don't mind my using that word for boys...) ~Lydia
