On the job site rigging for "Fast and Furious 3", an unusual musical solo was comming from the parking lot where our equipment, and truck were located. Like the Pied Piper luring the mice from there hiding places, a group of us went to see what was going on. It was the medic, and he was blowing his horn.
He kept calling himself 'the fat man', hence the title of my submission.
He was really good. I mean he needs an agent good.
I converted it to B&W because he stood under a sodium vapor lignt. The yellow hue gave a kind of effect in post, and I kind of like what I did using the Blur tool in a differant version of this pix. Even shooting in RAW, I could not really compensate the color temp to give the pix justice.
PS CS!= All the legal basic edits, I.E., crop, levels, image, saturate, resize, close, get a drink. |

"Fat" people need love too! :D!! Very cool picture. It looks so natural - like it wasn't set up. Great job. Maybe more focus would be beneficial? |
