I processed this shot pretty heavily and eventually decided I liked this one the most. It has a sort of desolate feel to it that I liked. What do you think did I over-process it?

the silhouette makes it really cool
I dont think its over processed personally, if you were going for a desolate feel you have achieved it superbly, the silhouette of the horse and rider leap out for attention and brings a feeling of solitude to me
I like this high key result.
it doesn’t feel over-processed! It looks really cool! Just the adjustments to make this scene as impressive as it is!
No, it’s perfect, I love the created atmosphere with its hard contrasts. Very well done!

Nice job!
Beautiful photography and beautiful tonality, splendid result.
I like the processing. It has a nice stark feel and that super reflection really finishes the shot off.
That’s something I’ve always wanted to do, but never had an opportunity. Your image is fantastic.
This is a really terrific shot. nicely captured!
if your goal was a silhouette in a high key environment, you should’ve probably lightened the foreground (sand) too.. ;D
I think you achieved something very artful! Nice !
Love the high key effect and the silhouette of the horse rider. Like the mysterious mood you created in this composition.
baby, there’s no such THANG as over processin’ lolol great great, in every way, very iconic
It’s perfect the way it is, Andy. I love it! Trust your gut!
Love the simplicity..the solitude..and especially the reflections in the beach sand. I think you hit it just right with the processing!!!
It doesn’t feel over processed to me. I like the stark contrast between the darker rider and horse and the lighter setting.
It conveys a lonely feel to me. Very well done.
It is a wonderful picture, nothing ‘unnatural’ to me at all, love the silhouette and the composition of the horse within in the picture.
Great shot.
Superbe photo qui donne envie de s’évader !
Great black and white feel, and the reflection of the shadow is brilliant!
Not over processed at all - it looks pretty fab to me!
Great mood, I like the horse silhouette.
What a wonderful photo! Very nice silhouettes, congratulations!
Great catch-definitely something that you don’t often see! Love the processing too.
No, it looks like an almost High Key shot. If you did not tell me it was processed, I would have thought that this is how you shot it.
Love the processing, great tones and composition!
Being a fan or high key/high contrast I would say this was processed expertly. The feel you intended is there, and tells a wonderful story.
Really nice photograph–pleasing on every level.
