This was the kickoff for the Mid-Atlantic bike racing season. Decided to go heavy on the PP for this shot.

    Interesting shot but the PP doesn't work for me.

    I actually like the PP in this one. I think it would make a nice poster.

    Wouldn't want this PP all the time but a little here and there is nice.

    Thanks for the comments. I usually do not like to go heavy into PP. But I liked the play between the grass, tarmac, racers and sky . The original shot is kind of hohum so I thought I would max out the detail, clarity, and saturation sliders just to see the results. It looks pretty cool as my desktop wallpaper too.

    I like it! Gary Fisher seems to be a popular brand here!
