I was there last summer. Very interesting to see how they live. Basically without electricity, and running water. Keni, your shot was a joy to work on. I added the dog. BTW he is a resident of that Pueblo. I photographed him when I was there. That dog would lumber around and than plop himself down where ever he felt like it.

I like the sepia look. It's great that you added the dog. I didn't get a shot of him but I was thinking if I were to submit this one I would have composited in a dog.

Here's a watercolor rendition.
That is really pretty. It adds a softness to it that I like.

I too felt this image was good to begin with. It just needed a bit of pop to bring it to life. I brought up the shaded areas, slightly saturated the turquoise and natural door frames and brought a little more green to the background hill side. It was a fun shot to work with.

This was started with basics like level & tilt then slight color adjustments, the usuals. Then details were added for interest.

Very nice Carol! I like how you brought out the colors in the doors.

Rich you always make it interesting. I love the red pepper ristras you added. Very New Mexico.

Since we can enter up to 2 images, I decided to try a vintage B&W film treatment. Just for fun.

In this version I tried to bring out that look of the south west. Bright, clear, hot, and sometimes dusty. Other than that no fun stuff. but I love New Mexico and this is an attempt at 'homage'

Here's a monochrome conversion (via Silver Efex) and some added texture. Sort of an old-time vibe.
