I was experimenting with fill flash while shooting the birds in my front yard. The neighbor girls happened to go running by to the play ground and I snapped a shot, forgetting I was in Tv mode @ max shutter speed for flash.

The resulting photo was garbage on my screen but since I was shooting in RAW mode I decided to experiment.

The results were astounding and so simple to do in PHOTOLAB (one slider bar moved from 0 to 2) compared to all the adjustments I tried in photoshop which paled in comparison.
