Here is my stab at it. This was a really nice file to work with and I did not want to do too much to it. Mainly I wanted to bring out the details in the image.

I too like the original but I had a little different thought on it. Here is my attempt.

A tighter crop - more so than this, even - lets the intersecting diagonals catch the viewer's eye and reel it right down to the deck. However, once there, it seemed the heavy, bright green, saturated grass tries to pull you overboard. So, desaturating everything, then adding an orange/blue gradient map knocked down the grass even more and snugged up all the colors. I agree, this is a particularly good image to play with... good job Graham!

I think you'd have had to get your feet wet to get this angle.

This picture immediately conveyed to me a sense of dark foreboding. The colors, which are very muted to begin with, again, to me, were not important. The picture is almost gray in its original form, and so it cried out to be monochrome.

I cropped the image to emphasize the wreck, cranked back on exposure by 0.6EV (in View NX2) to accentuate the foreboding aspect and then also cranked back on contrast (-30 out of 100) since the picture was contrasty to begin with. Dimming the image made it necessary to also take shadows out to retain the detail in the foreground (31 cranks out of 100).

I really liked working over this image -- I think you for the honor of allowing me the edit of this.

Color and "Shades of Gray"......

Graham, this was one I enjoyed participating in. Although, I had a lot of haloing to clean up, it was still an enjoyable task. I decided to go with a day to night scene by adding the moon, and practicing my vision of light direction for a dramatic effect. Thanks for the opportunity with this one.

I had a fine old time working one up ever so carefully, then went to upload it and it was indistinguishable from Andrea's version, no one could've told em apart, so I tossed that and went all off in the dark tattered direction.

Sorry I beat you to the punch but I am really glad you went back to the drawing board. I don't know how it will come out in the votes but I love your version.
