Description

My Head is Spinning~

That song has been stuck in my head since I finished this image last night. Finally got a chance to do so shots with my cowboy model . . . for a few minutes till the sun ran behind the clouds. Rob's idea to spin the spur.

I decided to stop numbering the series. I'll just continue on with the images.

Just some tweaking (levels, color boost and sharpened)
