I Believe I Can Fly

Posted by Rahul (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) on 28 July 2007 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

This was again a shot taken in mid noon with harsh lightings. The effects here are brightness and contrast play with some softness, and blue filter to give it a dreamy effect of night.

Cheers and have a great weekend friends. :-)
