Before & After #15 / Grabber Blue!

I first shared this photo back in March after a weekend down in Galveston with some other mustangs and other photographers. The editing on it got a few comments on facebook, so I figured it'd be a nice opportunity to show you what I did. If you look at the original, it was before I had my camera cleaned and there's lots of little dust bunnies. First things first, I took those suckers out. The paint was already very smooth thanks to the polarizing filter, but that one little speck near the driver side headlight bugged me. So I fixed that. Removed the folks from the back. Sharpened it a bit. And slightly desaturated the sand. Probably did some high pass or something too. Nothing much ;)
