My mother doesn't like this image, but I liked it the moment I saw it on the LCD. She doesn't consider it flattering, but I think it's beautiful.

I just got a SB-600 Speedlight the day before I shot this. This flash rocks.

Canon 62

Went back and retooled an old pic. Adjusted the levels and curves and desaturated.

Joshua Tree at Sunset

While waiting for the sun to set, it ducked beneath the clouds and I got some direct sunlight. Not much to look at for silhouettes or cloud color, but the side lighting was almost magical. I tweaked it a little bit using the tonemapping tool on PhotoMatix and then finished it with the typical PhotoShop levels/curves adjustments.

Triumph

Engine on a 1974 Triumph TR6. Playing around with Photomatix tonemapping and pushing it past anything resembling reality.

I kinda like the way it makes things look oily
