Coney Island Boardwalk

I've been learning a bit more about toning in Photoshop and had this image from Coney Island knocking around so it seemed as good a time as any to post it.

I've tried really hard to get detail in the wood without all the jagged lines that quickly appear when you start sharpening. It's trickier than it sounds, honest.

Nice PS work there Jamey... I was trying to achieve this with the Barn shot on my blog a few days ago but I went back to standard B & W. Is the toning stuff in the "bible" at all?

Sys - don't think so. I followed the tutorial on The Light's Right and nicked some of their duotone settings.

Great shot Jamey. Well done mate.

Nice B&W Jamey the wood really stands out and shows it's age.

The tones are alright, but the photo in its whole doesn't say so much to me.
