Mountain Bike
Well recently I took up mountain biking and I always end up throwing my small point n shoot camera in my pack as my Pentax K5 kit is far too heavy for long rides. Anyways, I came across this grafitti on a wall and snapped a quick "self portrait". I used Adobe Camera RAW to make adjust the exposures into the usual under/mid/over and then used photomatix and PS5. The result was pretty good for what was a single point n shoot image. Was going for that "gritty" look. Hope you like it

I keyed in on the graffiti wall straight away! Nice.
For bonus points in the "gritty" department, you need some mud on yourself and the bike! ;-)

Nice 'touch' with the post processing. You achieved the look you were striving for without going 'over the top.'
