Here is a preview of an album I'm currently completing.  This was taken in the Historico Bario ("the old slum") region of Tucson.  It's an interesting area, and photographs well.  Highly recommended.  More details are available on my trip report.

I began using a new workflow, starting with the images from this trip.  I'm now using adjustment layers in Photoshop.  This allows me to go back and review the changes I've made to an image, and even make subtle modifications to my previous changes.  In this case, I decided that the image was still slightly under-exposed.  A quick adjustment in Photoshop, and I was back on track.  I'll write more on this at a later date.  But if you're a fellow digital photographer who hasn't yet began using layers in Photoshop, you really should give it a try.  Changes in PS 8 have made the process reasonably efficient.  I added a few custom shortcut keys to automate my most-used techniques.  It was all a little awkward at first.  But after I had edited about ten images, the process was already becoming second-nature.

Update: After posting the original image, I realized that a little better post-processing could measurably improve this image.  The improved version is on the right.  I did a levels adjustment in Photoshop to deepen the black-point.  Thanks to my new workflow, this was a simple task, and prevented me from having to "double-process" my photograph.  Adjustments in layers.  Learn how to do it.  It's a great thing.  I also created a framed version.
