It was a dull gray day at the beach and all my shots were pretty lifeless. But I hesitate to discard/erase images because I may come up with some idea post shooting that can be Photoshopped. This time the idea was Shutterbug's...NOIR. Blurring, selective focus and vignetting turned dull into mysterious, and a lifeless day became a Stormy Night.
