this wasn't what i had in my head when i was taking the photo, but after looking at it on the computer, it didn't take long to realize this would make a good high contrast black and white image.
actually i think i got the idea from a lot of barack obama images i've seen lately. he's got a pretty distinctive profile and i've seen some pics with him speaking and it's just a shadow with the ring of light around his head.
i moved some pixels around above andy's head. the light spot on the back of the wall was a little distracting so i moved it to the left so there was more dark above him. pretty sloppy job of it, actually, but it works fine for an 800px image.
i do very little photoshopping of images, so i'll probably usually maybe give a disclaimer when i do.
i give notes and commentary on all of my photos in the comments section. click thegreenpost title to show that photo with my comments below. please add your own comments or critiques and thanks for checking in! -phil
