In the example below, I was shooting an AHL game. For the unedited photo, I was shooting from behind the safety rink glass which causes a dull color. During my editing process, I dehazed and tweaked the saturation and exposure to bring back the vibrant colors of the players' uniforms.

1. Amusement rides long exposure, F2, 3.2 sec, ISO 100. The ride lights at night make some fun and interesting patterns.

2. Beach - I thought the color contrast between the cool sky and warm beach/building would be fun. F2.8, 15 seconds ISO 3200.

3. A freak snow storm in Big Bend NP covered the trees and vegetation in snow and ice and made some interesting color/texture contrast F9, 1/640 sec, ISO 640

I have been thoroughly enjoying experimenting with colours while editing. Here are a few wildlife photos I recently edited in Lightroom. The hummingbird photo isn't as clear as I would have liked; however, I love its front-facing pose.

Just joined forums and happy to add to this photo challenge! I decided to go with monochrome magic because sometimes that just adds and extra push to an image.  These Coastal Brown Bear photos were taken in Lake Clark National Park on the beach as they were hunting for clams.

Here are some of my first macros and a daytime moon shot.  I enjoy the vibrant colors.
