This works much better to my eyes. I especially like the image (reflection?) in front of the man that seems to mirror the coloring and shapes of the poster. I like this sepia tinting that you use sometimes. Is this something that you add later in digitally processing or is it a filter?
anyway, I like it here very much.

Homage to Penn #2 (National Gallery of Art Washington September 1st 2005)

re the sepia tinting I use in such works, I simply play around with the colour controls and select the most appropriate sepia hue. In this case I was attempting to mirror Penn's Platignum finish to his photographs. I was fascinated to see Penn's photographs in Washington as he used this long defunct process to radically alter the way the original works looked and had taught himself the lost art of printing in this manner to achieve this end. Re my additions to the Seller's Comments acknowledgements -it's a pleasure to acknowledge your excellent help with the piece.
