Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

I have been trying to complete a personal project for a while now. And thought I'd tie it in with this great contest opportunity!   

I needed to get out and shoot for me.  I wanted to take chances and step outside my comfort zone to try to create something that I had never really done before.  I wanted bright, saturated colors and lots of texture.  Sure, I could have driven around taking pictures of backgrounds and Photoshop-ed a model in afterward, but I wanted something organic. 

The day was rainy.  We were not sure if we would even fit an hour in, but we caught the weather perfectly!  We watched the radar, left for downtown right after storm #1 hit and shot before storm #2 rolled in. 

We shot this in the late afternoon.  Almost nobody was around.  It was perfect!

Here are the results.
