Photographers Note:
Could use some help with this one.  First time I've tried a triptych.  I'm guessing the frames should be bolder, perhaps black?  What else?

OK, I went back to the original images.  Cropped so that they were all the same size.  Changed the order.  Darkened and desaturated the background.  Changed the frame color to black.  

Thanks to all for the feedback and suggestions.  Now how about some more?  (Please....)

Bob-I think this one is too dark. It loses some of the detail that's in the other one. The rest of the changes are good however.

Thanks, I realized that as soon as I saw the side-by-side.

But here's were I really goofed up.  I did the background/subject adjustments in separate layers.  And, unfortunately, I didn't save the layers before flattening into a Jpeg.  Had I saved the layers I could quickly increase the brightness of the macaque and save a new version....
