Which do you prefer, A or B?

[Lonewolf]

I popped out on the bike this afternoon and did a bit of off road riding to get where I needed to be for a photo opportunity, aren't leaves slippery! 

Anyway, I'm just curious, which photo works better, this one......




or this one which has been Photoshopped ever so slightly. They are both the same photo.




The first photo is straight as it comes out of the camera and the second one has had the colour of the bike amended to make it more saturated and punchy and then the background has been ever so slightly diffused to provide a bit of depth of field and separate the foreground more from the background.

[O.C.]

Its a no brainer for me Steve, the First picture is better ~ personally I'm not keen on the diffusion effect

[Rusty]

A too.

[Ant]

I can't see that B did the bike any justice except make it slightly duller on closer inspection ...... So A for me

[1ka]

+1 for A

It's a brighter picture and that's what matters after a few pints.

A+++++++. Oh sorry, that's my ebay feedback.

Who here still thinks magnesium grey is a boring colour?

Nice pictures both!

[Lonewolf]

Interesting, A it is then. I was glad when I got back on tarmac & out of the woods.  Who says Bradford isn't that nice?

Steve it just goes to prove magnesium does look the same colour as a horses arse

First one is best

Photo-shop the blue padlock out

[Ant]

First one is best

Disagree !!!, you can't tell the better woman just by looking at the horses arse ! 

[virginiajim]

I'm thinking A..

[patrick]

I'm thinking.............

I'd have the bike away from the gate and use selective focusing with wide aperture to blur the back ground.  I'd also have thought about opening the gate if possible an having the track at the far edge of the shot.

Option C

Just ride the damn thing instead of admiring it
