Description

Just having a little fun on our visit to University of New Hampshire this weekend. Went to see Rob's nephew and he gave us a tour of the campus. This was taken in the theatre on the stage. Only source of light was the lone light on stage.

I loved the original but started playing a little and came up with this. Added Buzz (thanks DDK), flashback filter (for softness), cropped & cloned a little, and played with levels, saturation, and color balance a bit for the final result.

Darren. . . thanks for previewing and offering feedback.

Forgot to mention that the one in the cowboy hat is Rob (you guys probably figured that out) and the other one is Brittney. She's a teenager who has a horse at the ranch and stays with us from time to time. Thought it would be good for her to see a college campus. #1357100
