 Shot in dark with camera on tripod triggered by remote. Bulb exposure of 22 seconds during which a flash on my left was triggered twice at varying outputs. Basicilly after the first flash with the shutter remaining open, I walked over to the flash, adjusted the output, got back into position and pose and triggered it again (with my light meter and synch cord)

I know I'm probably taking a risk entering this picture because many may view it as over processed, but I was going for a certain effect and I really like how it came out.

PP:
Gaussian blur overlay. Levels. Hue/Sat with colorize. Selective lightening and darkening using a combination of screening and multiplying layers, layer masks and history brush. Crop. Resize. Smart sharpen. Save for web
