The Claw

Santa Cruz, California, May 2006. This is yet another shot from the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. I wasn't quite sure the name of the ride and couldn't deduce it from the website, so I decided to go with the title you see. I initially gave this shot a B&W treatment, but ultimately decided against it... sorta. After all the usual processing was done, I changed the mode of the B&W layer to "multiply" and kept "turning knobs" until I was happy.

Thanks so much to everyone who commented on the last photo -- I really appreciate it. Please keep em' coming.
