old photo new tricks - photographer redux
Some of you might recognize this one. I know I'll never be able to top the original, but since my photoshop skills have improved about a million times since I shot the original, I thought I'd give it a makeover. I like this one a lot. It's less.. orange.

Looks fab in b&w!!

Agreed. I love the tones here and the lighting in BW works well.
I've wanted to go back and redo all of the eyes in the portraits I've taken in the last few years because I finally figured out that dodging them make them look less dead.
This shot is great. You made it even better.

I prefer the b/w... probably because of the crop. Both are neat, however. :-)
