Basically, this photo was a screw-up. I took this at Jefferson's garden at Monticello, but accidentally had the film speed set at 1600, with the AV set at 5.6. This was a "bright" cloudy day, and the photo turned out terrible. And, even though I hate doing this, I over-Photoshopped it back into shape. Even though it is not what I envisioned, I figured I'd go ahead and upload it, anyway.
Mistakes can make for greater challenges and learning. You learn from your mistakes I've always been told. You knew the shot had potential and by stretching your editing skills you've managed to create a striking image. You've made the most of the image you could. Bob
Technically flawed (like most that I take), but compositionally very intriguing. I can see why you tried to salvage it. Cool perspective, Chad. ...Brad
