Okay, so back to the go of this thread. Here's the downloaded version of Asa's starting photo:
I played with it for a heartbeat or two. Had I spent more time, it would be better. I did a bit of lighting, contrast and color adjusting in addition to cropping it a little. To my eye, on this computer, the edited one, without dramatic difference, looks better. There's more mood, more story, and a greater emphasis on the "rule of threes."
So, I guess, what I'm saying, is a little editing goes a long way, but it will ultimately amount to what you what story you want to tell with your photo, and I expect that the grand challenge for us all. Cheers.
