Last minute entry...(shot at 7:16pm, day of deadline)
After not being happy with my New York City "Yellow" shots, I remembered my friend's spark plug cable was yellow on his harley, so I went to his garage at home with my lighting (work lights) and camera gear.
Took 100 shots.
It was really difficult to not have myself or too much of my lighting reflected off the chrome or the tank...more challenging than I had anticipated.
Post-Processing:
- RAW conversion (RSE)
- Initial sharpening

- Burned some of the chrome
- Resized image
- Output sharpening
- Save for web
I don't know how this will do...also, this image is for a Head-to-Head against Pedro. I hope he doesn't beat me too badly. I don't think this image can top his...but we'll see.
**Post Challenge**
Ouch.

well this was unfairly punished by voters. Granted there's not a ton of yellow in it, but the impact is certainly the plugs therefore it meets the challenge.
Mmm, yellow wires... I'd like to have seen more in focus.
Shoulda installed red wires, would have matched the tank logo, and, uh, red ones make more power!
