This photo was quite a pain let me tell you. Taken in the Gold Souk.(I think that is how to spell it)
First it was taken on bulb for I think it was 15 or 18 sec; with this little mini tripod(don't remember the name because it broke the day after I shot this and I threw it out)suction-cupped to the glass. I took 6 shots this was the best of them all. There was this harsh glare in the reflection in a lot of the other photo's.

Oh and in case your wondering what is in motion its those small crystal animals laced with gold and a lot gold chess pieces on the top spinning. I personally like the background. My friend Rob in this shot was quite helpful in keeping as still as he could.

* In PS7 I Cropped it and I added 4 adjustment layer, one for the background, one for his face one for the gold spinning I adjusted the hue and saturation in each layer in itself and I lighten his face and dodged it a little.
This was my second post on TE a while back, in case it looks familiar to some of you all. I think it belongs here TL. I hope you like it. Please tell me what you think.

***I posted the originial as a workshop.
I couldn't do that before on TE and I wanted to show you all the raw version of this.

Felt like straighten the image and transfering it to a BW and a frame. I think the color version is better though.
