Hooves

[mugge]

I was looking though some old photos when I came upon these dancing horses. I jazzed up the colours a bit. C&C most welcome

I certainly find this interesting idea, but I'd be inclined to crop down a bit from the top, to just below that little "tab" hanging down (a bit of harness?), and clone out the white line

The road line has to go. Maybe a bit tricky to clone on the right side but I think that could be cropped away then clone the easier left side. Possibly just crop out the entire line.

Great eye! In addition to the above comments, consider adding a slight vignette and consider eliminating the leaves. This would make a nice monochrome as well.

Almost surreal. Well seen, Ole.

Again very different and interesting idea, it a nice image.

Very nice and original, Ole. Agree with the cropping suggestions and this will serve to bring even more emphasis to the hooves. I like the leaves a lot but one has to be tough and eliminate as they are an eye snag.

Second effort. I have not done a lot of cloning. Here goes

That works best for me. Once you get the cloning technique down, you'll be able to refine the edge of the sidewalk.

The original posted image has vanished. But the B/W version is nice.

It's being displayed on my end.

That's likely because you loaded the page while it was still there thus the image is in your browser history. When I opened the page there is simply a large white box with tiny font text saying "the photo is no longer available".

Crop works better Ole . I like the B&W but color image is certainly nice too

[Geoff F]

I would have been tempted to selectively tone down highlights on the leaves and leave them in the image, particularly with B&W.

Then again maybe not. Others continue to comment on the original version. Must be a glitch in the NSA system that is temporarily interrupting my connection. I did see a black SUV with heavily tinted windows just down the block

I've got the no longer available message for the first image as well.
Be interested to see what it's like. I'm not really keen on the fine texture in the B&W but that's just my preference.
