Colors at Mardi Gras

(Some alterations *level adjustments* done in Photoshop LE.)

The image was taken in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, on 21 February 2004.

Camera: Nikon N8008s.
Lens: AF 90mm f2.8 'D' Macro Tamron.
Film: Fuji Reala 100.
Flash: Nikon SB-25.

This is a different take on that wild time. It certainly does highlight the array of colors, and good job in filling the frame with the bold colors. I like it.

Glad you enjoyed the colors! Saturday was near perfect weather wise, but the bus trip was cancelled for weather on Fat Tuesday. Have to wait for next year......

A bit too "Photoshoppy" looking IMO. I suspect there are many scenes to be had there where no Levels adjustment at all would be necessary to show "a wall of colors" sort of look.

;)

good to some folks and some is not good to some folks.
A middle ground is tough to achieve.

One can please a few persons some of the time;
one can dis-please a few persons from time to time;
but one cannot please every person one hundred percent of the time.

Oh I realize that...

...I was just adding another opinion to the list.
