Artist's Comments

This is a different type of artwork for me, but I really enjoyed the process of taking and manipulating an action sports shot. I just got access to a nice digital camera, and I just finished going through many hours of Photoshop training, so I am looking forward to really getting into digital photography. This is the first serious work I've done with Photoshop. Of course I cropped and did some color balancing, but the mostpart of my work was in selectively masking three layers of blur to simulate depth of field. I love the wide format so much, I originally added the black borders just to make it printable as a 4x6, but I actually think they look pretty good. All in all, I am proud of this first image, and I'm really looking forward to getting more involved with Photoshop and digital photography.

Thank you! Like I said in the comments, this was one of the first times I had ever seriously used Photoshop, so I was very happy with how it came out. It's one of those I never got around to printing, because I keep making small edits here or there; so I may never be happy with it but I'm glad you like it :)
