An excellent re-working, Ollie, but perhaps not so atmospheric as the earlier version - I can not smell the smoke so well Smile
Regards
Bill

P.S.: What's happened to the Nikons?

Curious, in theory I'd expect to prefer this one, because the eyes looking leftwards suggest sadness, reflection, regret. But I agree with Bill, I find yesterday's more atmospheric. This is less oppressive, claustrophobic - I wonder if it is simply the white frame? Will have a play...

"I am agreeing with Moira & Bill,...that I slightly favor the previous version," Ollie.

But,...I find this Image rendering has more 'direct photographic impact,' while the other "has more atmosphere." In any case, wonderful photographic work,...indeed. Smile

I prefer this one. He's having a 'smoother' moment. A softer moment.

I've done a Mod. I hope it's not too dark. I'm trying to focus more on the glow and solitude.

Theres a definite difference, and its the atmosphere for sure as the wollybills commented. The toning and noise in yesterdays are more evocative of something you would expect in a room where cigars are smoked.

A completely different mood. I like the mystery and atmosphere that the previous one evoked.

Like this image, my preference is the previous for the atmosphere.

Excellent set Ollie; very atmospheric. To me the diagonal to the right in the first image is more appealing.
