Taken on Friday at Six Flags. Just random kids in the park. The reason for the title being different than what's on the glass: that's how you'd say it to a teenager so they'll actually hear you.

Started out with Noise Ninja to remove some grain (where'd that come from), then Levels, Brightness/Contrast, overlay layer to dodge and burn, three texture layers reduced in opacity and erased selectively with layer mask, resized, sharpened, border,save for web. I'm including a b&w version below because I liked it so much, but when I added texture it ruined it.

I think this is grand

the blue is what gives this pop and a very cool feeling as in cool water on a hot day

You know??? I'm usually in the minority on this issue -- but I do think the color one has the edge. I seem to still be one of the dinosaurs who still typically prefer color over black and white. It seems to show a little more of the grunge and grit in the color version.

I like it! Both versions. :)

Needs a dolphin standing next to them with his hands- er, fins on his hips and a disapproving look. ;-P

Nice job, Roger.
