Sharon knows me all too well because as the truck screeches to a hault, without even looking she just says, “See a photograph?” Yeah, I saw a bear so I had to stop! As the sign says, we’re heading to LA and hopefully, heading for fun. The “grunge” look to the photo is no more than one pass of Tonal Contrast in the Nik Color Efex 3.0 and moving the Shadow and Midtone sliders too far to the right.

The rest of the sign and the collection below it seemed more like a B&W so I quickly popped into Silver Efex Pro and finished it off. Tomorrow, it’s back to the serious stuff.
