 My first free study entry. About time after just having paid for my 2nd year here. Nothing special, just using another picture from the jousting tournament and trying some new editing techniques. Changed from "...Master's Armour" to "...Knight's Armour" at the last minute for political correctness.

desaturate
adjust colors to give it the sepia look
crop
