Jazz in the Plaza, #2
Uploaded: November 04, 2008
I took this in Kansas City at Country Club Plaza. If it looks familiar, it's because it was 1/3 of the DD composite I put together and entered previously. I did clone out a number of distracting elements here and applied a light Topaz Adjust filter.

Wasn't that a GREAT weekend!!! The first version was perfect for the 101 theme but I prefer this version. It is much cleaner and concentrates on the people enjoying the music. Very well done Nikki!! #6706424Daniella Puente November 04, 2008

Terrific shot Nikki! I lived in Lenexa, KS 1980-1982 and really loved the Plaza, Kaufman and Powell gardens. Great timing on the man in the foreground soaking up the music. Well done!! #6762177Ken Slade November 28, 2008
