posted a higher res version of the image I did up 
 
 
Okay, a posted a very small number of images on f-book and a few people emailed asking for a larger version of an image I did of John Penders and Adam
Bedinghaus tearing it up at NABX 
Here is a link to it on flickr:
 http://www.flickr.com/photos/18783368@N00/sets/7215762658894...
Go to the 2011 set, only a few images this year - click the small thumbnail image, then when it opens you'll see a magnifying glass icon to the upper
right - then next image that appears you'll see "view all sizes" to the upper right - then pick "original" for the largest image I put on the flickr.
 
Here is the same low res version I posted on FB.

oh where to start... pulled John forward, added in Adam from another shot, took out some crumpled kites in distracting places, drew in the the gouge
and illustrated the flying chunks of playa 
Then did some colour adjusting and contrast in in some areas until it was basically the fixed up image - made a copy and created a high contrast
almost greyscale image that neutralizes the image and laid that copy over to adjust the luminosity on the original image to give it a very stylized
look, then ramp up saturation in areas and contrast in some areas, then another copy of that neutralized image set to soft light and masked areas just
to bump up some dark areas richer. 
So, a little work on it. Wish I took more photos this year so not as many to play around with, spent too much time riding when there was any wind -
next year.
