I just snapped this and uploaded it without doing any Photoshop work on it. I originally took this picture just as a functional example of using a wide aperture on a new lens I got (50mm f1.4). However, I seem to really enjoy this picture, can anyone offer a thought on whether this is interesting to look at and worth further work on?

There's your answer, right there. If it's of interest to you, then surely that makes it worthwhile working on, even if for no other reason than refining your skills. Working on an image that you appreciate makes it all the more worthwhile and well...fun, even

I'd say, go for it! [thumbup]

I would enjoy it more with a little bit a curves adjustment just so we can see some more contrast and variance in the gray tones. I think that in a series about the U of M it would be more powerful, or at least with some more readily identifiable context for outsiders. I do see where it fits as a part of the campus and how it is so desolate even in the middle of the city. I think a b/w conversion would really make this shine, but since there is so little contrast (blame the wretched weather, not the camera) a little sepia tone might be in order.

I'd say you should see where it will take you. [thumbup]

Very quick photoshop but I think similar treatment would make the image pop a little more.
