Photographer's Note
This is a shot from the first concert to be arranged in front of the castle in Oslo.
But looking to the details I thought it fun to do this little post work, keeping the colours on the girl in red and having the rest of the pic in BW. Why she looks the "wrong" way? Probably looking for her friend.

Do not mind this at all. Reminiscent of Schindlers List with that little girl in red who dies in the end. There is another chap looking back as well. The 'Woman in Red' as Chris De Burgh's daughter just got crowned Miss World, may have been a more appropriate title. If thats my only critique, you have taken a post worked an origianally good shot anyway. Cheers

Perhaps she knows the photographer? I think your decision to retain only the red colour was a good one. An interesting scene.

You have used a good technique to make this pic. You have chosen well the red colour of the girls clothes. Seems like a foreign body on this concert. Good try Jack.

it looks like a scene from "The Shindler's List"... the girl in red, simple idea, very good effect. the picture is vell composed, there is a lot of people, but we look only at the girl in red, nice work

The lady in red, though put in extreme left stole the show. Very smart PS work. And the setting is very "novel" for this PS picture. Congratulations. (It gives me some ideas for some of my pictures. Watch out:-))

Very cinematic. Actually very dreamlike. I think I read somewhere that most people dream exactly like this - black and white and just one color. Very effective post processing.
