Empty streets... Broken dreams

in #monochromes • 8 years ago (edited)

I knew I wanted a shot of this as soon as I saw it!

Something somehow appealed to me... It wasn't so much the street at first as the huge posters that caught my eye... and maybe the light and shadows on that street too.

And now when I re-looked at this, I wanted to try a monochrome edit...
But which?

At first, I thought a slightly yellowed photograph look might work...
Like a 'Street of Broken Dreams' concept
But what if...

What if... I left it just black and white
Stark, no frills black and white
Is this better?

        That's a tough one :/ I really like them both. At first, I was fairly dead set on the first one, but it wasn't long before I changed my mind

        Sorry I can't be more helpful. Either way, great photo(s) :)))

          Very nice! I vote for the second shot with the cooler tones.
