“ Australia Day! ”
I took this on Australia Day, this gentleman is actually in a wheelchair and was very obliging. I thought it quite uncanny I would take such a picture since I work in the industry of disability support. I wanted to play around with different editing techniques as I love to experiment.

    An interesting subject here Leslie and you look like you have had fun playing with editing techniques - maybe a bit dark at first glance, or the lights and darks are not natural, a bit too spotlighty?
