It's another of those 'processing experimentation' weeks for me, starting 2 days ago actually. There might be the odd themed (city 17) image thrown in along the way. Thought about including this one in the theme but the lighting and colour treatment didnt quite match the previous 4.

Really nice expression from the cop in the right, I liked the processing in this one, the tones are great!

@Alfredo J. Martiz J.: cheers Alfredo!
Excellent processing. I like this cold feel of underground world.

@Makoto: thanks Makoto, i wanted a cold hard and oppressive tone to this.
I like the processing on this.

@Angry Buddha: Thanks Sean. I did try a few different things here.
For a 200 ISO film I see grain in this image- did you push it during processing? Nice job, I love the expression.

@Michelle Bialowas: thanks Michelle. I did push this a little bit to be honest. noise was the unfortunate side effect.
So this is the "Curves" right? I like the tone.

@Shuva: Yeah this was primarily curves (push the green and blue channels up, red one down) duplicate and blending mode set to HUE, along with a few more totally unneccessary adjusment layers (im not economical when it comes to PS and always end up with with more layers than i have sense)
Interesting post treatment. Fine expression of this policemena!

@Sarah: thanks Sarah!
Blue tint is very cool - it's got that cold synthetic urban feel to it. At least the guy's smiling, nice work with the pp it works a treat.

Great shot Duncan. I am always a little hesitant to photograph policemen in foreign countries.

Looks like he's practising for his part in the annual policeman's Kabuki performance. Fun stuff!

But the noise is a positive!
