You might be wondering what this is... Well there is a little story I must tell... I came home one rainy night to find that my neighbour across our street had a fire going, and the effect of the rain on the fire was very interesting, so I got the family inside, then grabbed the camera and went out to take many shots.

This one I have edited a tad heavily... :) But am enjoying to do such play lately. I will add a less heavily edited one as pre-workshop show. :)

Sorry for my long absence friends. I have missed you all, and I can't count the number of times I have been inviting telented young photographers who's works I see (specially from Latvia) to join this wonderful place. :)

Best wishes and much artistic fun. :) Hugz

This 'original' has also had a good levels done, then decrease in brightness, increase in contrast, and perhaps also Shadow highlight in PS, but then I have been doing many pictures with different "Gradient Maps" just love using, it specially on people. :)
