Break *

Panama

An American tourist takes a break from his backpacking and watches the sea and the Panama Skyline (not that you can tell what he's seen from the pic). This was shot at the Amador Causeway, an area being promoted for tourism lately.

If I recall correctly, on post I already applied the add dynamic range routine on 20D CS Pro. This was taken at noon.

Nice. A tad of Shadow/Highlights to reduce a bit shadows on the face?

Thanks both for your comments! Hmm, Dorys, you're right, I'm *assuming* the guy could be American :)

Very vivid scene and makes you think twice before using a self-tanning lotion ;) Srf_Cast

how do you know he's american? i wouldn't be caught dead wearing those socks but i might wear some that said 'panama.' LOL

Hmm, maybe he is, or maybe it is the fact that I was lazy and didn't look for the original image. Rather, I downsized the Alamy copy that remains in my hard drive :)

Edit: No, I fished the original normal sized tif and once I resized for CTF, the leg looks the same. Apparently he has no leg hair...

Nice shot, but what weird thing is going on with his legs the he looks like he is wearing leggings? ~ Lonnit
