He was riding back and forth across the peg board I had laid down. I used the board to protect the white vinyl backdrop! He didn't want to have his picture taken. I knew I wouldn't get to many clicks. I laid down and shot one image. I checked it to see what i had, made an adjustment and took this frame. He realized what I had done, got up, took the board and went out the door! Session over!Editing
This was processed in Adobe Light Room 5. It is all I use for post work. I do use Serif Photoplus for compositing work. I don't know what to call the "look" other than a grungey-ish?In my camera bag
