When editing this photo I first took it into Adobe Bridge where I edited it in Camera RAW to help give it cooler tones. I thought that it looked a little too orange to the eye to I cooled it down a little with some blue tones. Then I gave it a little more contrast and adjusted the saturation. After that I then opened the image in Adobe Photoshop CS5 and played with my levels until I got them where I wanted them, then played with my sats a little more, and then sharpened the image. After that was done I then reduced the noise in the image and then sized it. I chose this image because I really liked the angle and the lights and darks in the image. I thought that it gave you something interesting to look at while also telling a little bit of a story.
