I couldn't help myself - I had to snap a shot at these three riders coming down the middle of the street (Ft. Worth Stock Show again--surprise!) The sun was almost behind them, and what I saw wasn't much more than a silhouette. When I opened it on my computer and added fill light to it, I discovered three more of Ft. Worth's finest! I blurred the background, cloned out a troublesome pedestrian, added B&W, and Voila! an acceptable photograph. (This is the only one I managed to get of them before Troublesome Pedestrian moved completely into the way.)

Great story. What is wrong with those pedestrians? Don't they know there are photographers out? I like the picture too!

ReplyDeleteWonderful picture! You had a great picture under all those problems and you got it perfect. Wish our "Lawmen" rode horses in the street!
