Editing and Photography: Yours truely

edit: Im sure someone will metion the blue tone. I didnt do it, thats how the light was this evening. Thanks to some ominous clouds in sky, it gave off different shades of blue.

It was truely beautiful.

Thanks. Yeah $2 is what I leave for tip at restaraunts nowadays.

When I first took the pic, I noticed the kicka$$ colors and new I didnt want to change them. I wanted a gritty look to it as it can be a gritty subject and message portrayed.

Once it was taken I knew exactly what I wanted to make it look like and what I had to do to get it that way. A very simply process, I wish they were all that simple.haha.

Well, I just had breakfast at IHOP (I'm not a real gourmet either) and it cost me $10. A tip these days is generally 20%. I ain't rich either - I spent it all on camera gear and tips.:confused:

BTW - I like the image, color and all.
