 Taken at the same time and place as my last entry, [thumb]848262[/thumb]. On that image submission, I purposefully left the image processing to a minimum. I now realize that was a mistake. I'm submitting this image with pretty heavy used of Topaz DeNoise3 and USM (and minor tweaking in ACR).

I like the composition of this shot. Hand held at a high ISO and slow shutter speed.

I'm beginning to wonder if I am going to have to invest in a monitor to do my edits. All of my entries are done on a lap top.

Great mood in this photo. Would have liked to see some smoke on the cig & I feel like there's a bit too much empty space at the top of the photo. Nice color treatment too.
