This is the starting line for the Falmouth Road Race, a seven mile running event that is one of the highlights of the summer season in town. It looks a bit dingy because it was not repainted this year. Like so many things, the 2020 race was cancelled. In processing, I removed the color from everything except the starting line creating an interesting effect.

The effect makes a statement!
Thank you, Ashley!
it does make it stand out… you’ve created a “statement”… it’s fun to dabble isn’t it.. waves good morning.
Thank you. Waves back to you.
That’s perfect…a character statement piece.
Thank you so much, Michelle
Another pause in Life’s patterns. 👁👁🍂
Oh yes, Happy Labor Day.
I do like the effect you achieved. What are the shadows, overhead power lines?
Thank you, Liz. Yes, those are the power lines. There is no getting around those.
So irritating that power lines have to intrude on our perfectly composed photographs! 😉
Now you really sound like a true photographer.
😀 And here I thought I was just being persnickity!
Nope!
Accenting a color, or a colorful object while removing the color from the rest of the image is one of my favorite tweaks. I don’t do it often because it takes a unique subject as in your example to pull it off well. Nice job!
Thank you, John. I agree that it’s a technique to save for the right photo.
Can smell the street here Chris … cool perspective 🤓☺️💫 enjoy your Monday ~ hugs hedy 🤗☀️
Thank you so much, Hedy.
You’ve created a beautiful effect, Chris. Our local races have also been cancelled, but one is going to be virtual. I have no idea how that will play out…
I’ve seen those virtual races promoted here also. Interesting idea.
Awesome! I really like the way you processed this photo. Very cool, Chris! I hope you’re doing well!
Tank you, Sandra. This technique works with the right image. I’m doing great. I hope all is well there.
I’m glad you’re doing well. We are safe and healthy. Take good care.
I love the effect you got there!
Thank you so much.
An interesting effect indeed! I agree with the others… truly a statement! Nicely done Chris.
Hope you did not labor on Labor Day! Take care my friend…
It was a quiet Labor Day. I hope all is well with you.
