Date: Oct 6, 2009
Aperture: f/9
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/125"
Galleries: Animals, Studio
Date Uploaded: Oct 6, 2009

 First shot entered with my new toy, the 17-55mm. Was aiming for a better image, but this was what I had time to compose today. Rigged and shot 15 min. before submission deadline.

Shot in RAW, drew the sat slider down a bit in the conversion software. Opened it in CS4, dragged the slider even further down, added unsharp mask and some contrast.

Max has yet to let me down with a good score, so I'm hoping it'll stay that way after this challenge. Fingers crossed for a 5.5 +.

a little more direct light on the right side might have given this more "punch"
