My friend Tony and I met up in Austin's warehouse district one evening recently for some nighttime street photography. I took my Fuji X100 to give it a good test run after coming back from the factory for sticky aperture repair. This bike caught my eye under the street lights. Processing Info: - Raw conversion in Lightroom with a little white balance tweak. - Topaz Labs Denoise for noise reduction. - Nik Color Efex Pro Contrast used for overall contrast adjustment. - Nik Color Efex Midnight masked and blended in on the background to darken and blur a bit more. - Topaz Labs BW Effects masked and blended in on the background to desaturate in order to knock down the street light color cast some. - Topaz Labs Detail Feature Enhancement for a bit of pop on the bike. - Masked Photoshop curve for some localized contrast adjustment on the bike.

I noticed that the Dragonfly Gallery has one of my images in the slideshow on their home page. I've got a couple of prints on display there this month and this print has sold! Very cool!
