Took this late Tuesday afternoon after being bored out of my skull with the rose shot I had in for the Love challenge. Tried this with cigarettes and cigars. I never smoked cigarettes - and it is obvious by the way I hold them. So I went with the cigar. Taken in my garage with my Pedro influenced ring light and only 3 bulbs turned on.
RAW conversion, saturation adjustment layer to tone down the colors, USM, NI and a selective color layer to primarily bring out the shadows. What an awesome tool selective colors can be.
Also my first entry using our new 30D.
