Creative Interpretations - Nascar

I have tons of this stuff, wrecks, winners, burn-outs, you name it. As I live in Daytona, born and raised I have photographed hundreds of the races for AP. Enjoy.

Great shot, Sweetlight! Vroom, Vroom, Vroom I love this bar NASCAR. (And only folks who love country music will understand that reference. LOL

Shadow/Highlight Adjustment, lots of sharpen, blur/sharpen, then a color screen filter.

Baldy, I'll trade you any piece of work I have for a high-res of that. I have a little boy that I mentor who is in a wheelchair and he is a Gordon nut, he would love that. Just name the price.

I've seen short skirts, we got high-techs
Blue-collar boys and rednecks
And we got lovers, lots of lookers
And I've even seen dancing girls and hookers
And we like to drink our beer from a mason jar

Peter- fun!
Maggie- Welcome to RetouchPro
Lyle- I don't know, it might be a little too dark, maybe you could brighten it up a little!
Swampy- very nice, have missed you lately!
OB- love the out of bounds!
thanks for the play Sweetlight

I started following a tutorial (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/pho...ory-brush.html)
and then veered off in my own direction with ahb.

Hi Dron
That's a good image, I like it a lot.

If you can't read russian go to the following and plug in the URL:

Hope this will help.
