Messing about in the GIMP again – this time I was inspired by some black and white shots to have a quick blast at playing with another image.

This time I picked a shot of a single subject and played with either desaturating the background or the rider. Desaturation was done on luminousity rather than lightness, as this seemed to reduce the ‘burnout’.

I couldn’t decide if it was better to have the rider in colour or the background – so I posted both.
