Neon in motion
This image was taken as a jpeg image (unintentionally) and in manual mode with my Sony RX100. I noticed how a giant overhead neon billboard lit up the cars passing by and took many jittery handheld slow-shutter blur shots along this sidestreet next to a nearby shopping complex.
Processing a jpeg is not ideal, but it seemed to give it a flat and clean look that likely would have differed from a raw file. After clearing up the image in Topaz Denoise, I then saved the image as a DNG file and processed the image in Adobe Camera Raw. After some minor colour and tone tweaks in PS and Lr, I then optimised the contrast in Photomatix.
