The Nap 2 – Denver 2011

Another Image of a sleeping street person, this one from Denver, taken with the Ensign 820 and its Ross Xpres lens.  There is a certain intimacy one must get when shooting with a 50mm equivalent lens, in this case the 100 mm Ross.  One must be up close; you cannot stand across the street in comfortable anonymity and shoot unnoticed.

I cropped out unnecessary  pavement left and lower, then applied Local Contrast Enhancement, increased contrast overall to give the image “snap” and dropped brightness to enhance the brooding quality of the image.
