Nice. When I opened it up in my browser, it looked waaay over sharpened.
But once I downloaded the file and opened it full-screen in Irfanview, that
issue completely went away. It has a nice tone to it. Almost a sepia-like
quality to it.

Its actually several layers of some very slight halftone changes to
various areas of the image. I wanted to give it an antique look while
keeping the overall sharp nature of the image.

I think it came out really nice.

Kool, but I really don't get the black and white thing. Some of the
shots don't seem "framed" if that makes any sense, there seems to be
no target for the eye...

What does the "unPhotoshopped" image look like?

Sorry, but it does nothing for me. It looks like prison bars on the beach.
I'm certainly no expert though, and I'm willing to learn. No offense I hope.

I hate to pile on but I guess I don't get b&w for this subject either.
It reminds me of dazzle camouflage.

I always liked that stripe effect...something like big venetian window
blinds filtering the sun in late afternoon.
Almost a 1940's thing.

Isn't supposed to be "a target" - it's a mood piece.

Grayscale is for mood pieces.
