Road Race

Laura raced her first post baby 5K today and did great.

I snapped a coupe abstract shots of runners while I was trying to find her in the pack and the start... I never founder her. I had to wait until the end to see her crossing the finish line, very impressively I might add.

This was a Toys for Tots race and they got a lot of toys.


For the first two pictures I used a Photoshop technique I saw on Digital Photography School. The technique involves duplicating the image layer and then; desaturated it, inverting it, changing the blend mode to overlay, converting it to a smart object and finally applying a Gaussian blur to it and cranking it up to sharpen the image.
