I was conflicted about he processing of my post in Day-to-Day today, so I thought I would solicit opinions. While walking around this morning, I saw this sole red flower at the feet of the Statue of St. Francis, so I used the selective color filter to isolate it:
I refer to this as St Francis of Red Flowers and Brake Lights. I mention this because I left the filter on. I then saw this brightly lit hazy street view. When I raised the camera to my eye I suddenly saw the parallelism of the the flag and the church, which was more than enough symbolism for a daily shot. I still had the Selective Color Filter on for the first shot, but I turned it off and continued. The full color version was not effective, but I had this much more effective accidental version, which I posted over on Day-to-Day:
I also tried the full B&W version. The split tone version was the best monochrome because it gave more separation to the elements of the image.
I went with the first one, but it was close. Which do you prefer?
