and Jimmy Hendrix...... I like this a lot Ron! Great conversion - great timing.

btw.... I got to see J. Hendrix in concert.... holy cow was it good... and Bo Diddley opened - then they played together, then just Hendrix. Amazing. San Diego Sports Arena many moons ago...

Good one Ron! The guy seems like he's rushing back to his coffe shop job.
Isn't that John Lennon on the far left?....and who's that girl?...and for a moment I thought I saw SRV with his trademark hat but not so sure.
Would the image tighten up if you cropped the right side in to the light post and left that as a "right side frame"?

Thank you Carolyn, Tony, Longhiker and Sten. After reading Carolyn's tutorial on muddy mid tones and receiving a few nudges from her in the proper direction, some of the conversions I did over the summer did not look right anymore. The main problem for me was abuse of the shadows slider in ACR 7. Used on a global basis this tool severely reduces image contrast.
