August 17, 2008 The swing at Karlaby Kro

One of two old, wooden swings under the big tree in the garden at Karlaby Kro, the old country spa hotel we were at a few weeks ago in southern Sweden.

On a purely technical level, the processing on this was a bit more extreme than I generally like and it's produced some weird little things if you know where to look (and I am not going to point them out). But what appealed to me as I was playing around with it was being able to make the swing pop from the background a bit more even with the anomalies and introduced graininess. If I had been thinking at the time, I would have used a flash to help do that at the time of taking, but I didn't.
