 Taken at a recent Cinco de Mayo celebration in St Paul. Processed a bit differently than recent shots, copied the green channel into an alpha, selected the highlights and did a fill with a muted green color trying to give it a bit of mystery.

This reminds me of a tent revival, except for the mariachi band :) The hats and toning really add an old-time feel to this.

Very intriguing processing! I'd like a bit more light, personally, but you've created quite a unique mood here.

Yeah, I can see what you were doing there. The guys with the hats that could be from the 40's really make this photo most interesting, like we don't know when exactly it was taken. The processing supports that. I like it.

What an interesting street-type photo! I love those hats that the guys watching are wearing. It gives the photo a totally different feel than if they were just hatless folk in the audience.

I love the hats -- gives the shot a very retro feel as does the processing. Looks like a shot from the '50's.

This is cool - I like the hats and muted treatment here. Lends a myterious feeling to the finished product.

Unusual finish to this one, and appears to be kind of a theatrical nature.....It looks like it belongs in the 1950's era.....
