I hope everyone had a great 4th holiday. I took pretty much a week off to visit the the Chowan River in North Carolina, and I left the camera in the bag most of the time and just relaxed.
Here's a shot from the same session as the last three posts, and it was just taken in the shade in their back yard. In this edit I was going for a dramatic contrasty B&W with dark blacks and slightly overexposed skin. The subject has interesting eyes, and this treatment treats them well.
As in the last several pictures this is processed with only Lightroom, only this time with the enhanced sharpening in Lightroom 1.1, which is now my favorite sharpening tool. The masking feature to restrict sharpening to parts of the image automatically works amazingly well, and I can't figure out why no one has done this before!
