February 4, 2012 – A year of portraits – Dannye and David Pearson

Today’s portrait is of my brothers, Dannye and David. You can’t tell that much from this picture, but they are twins! Both just recently retired from the City of Madisonville and are enjoying their retirements. As big brothers go, they’re the best and would give you the shirt off their backs if you needed it. Good people…

Processing was done with Photoshop CS5 by burning in the edges of the photo, adjusting levels, desaturated the image slightly and then applied a little sharpening in Topaz Adjust using the Simple Pop filter.
