Bad was oil

Nikon D7000, 26mm, 1/250, f/8, ISO 200, retouched

In this shot from the Chicago lakefront, I’m having a little fun with a sign painted on the side of a barrel. By shooting it from an angle that hides part of the text, I’ve altered the meaning a bit.

This picture has also been slightly retouched to improve the vibrance. I made the change partially to start teaching myself to use Adobe Lightbox (a relative of Photoshop) and partially to give Lake Michigan a nice, Mediterranean azure hue.

This is what the unretouched photo looked like:
