    Great shot Thomas! What exactly did you do to it in post? I don't remember my similar shots being anywhere near as vibrant as that is! I wonder, is he really one eyed or are we just seeing that film that they have that can go across their eye?

    Nothing special in post. I do most of my tweaking with the RAW conversion. I'm sure a did a little shadow recovery with Hightlights/Shadows - probably around 25/4 or so. Not really sure about the eye, but it makes a more interesting title : ).

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
