BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Editor's Pick BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   ~I'm So Dizzy . . .
~I'm So Dizzy . . .
My Head is Spinning~

That song has been stuck in my head since I finished this image last night. Finally got a chance to do so shots with my cowboy model . . . for a few minutes till the sun ran behind the clouds. Rob's idea to spin the spur.

I decided to stop numbering the series. I'll just continue on with the images.

Just some tweaking (levels, color boost and sharpened)

  Ooo, love the light, comp, and texure here! Hate the fact that you've placed "that song" in my head... will refuse to praise you further until the music stops.

Can't resist ~ the whole series of photos is praise-worthy!!! Shame on you.
