Momma got a new toy! I’m due for a new computer, at least that was what I told myself when I bought this behemoth. A sparkly, new, bright 27″ iMac sits on my desk. Its huge. I like the large screen, making photo editing that much easier.

This photo was taken last week. And after downloading Lightroom 3, watching a few tutorials I took a stab at editing this image. I like so much about this photo: his expression, the composition, the lighting. I didn’t have to do much, adjusted contrast and exposure after applying a B&W preset.

::The Name::

Five Baht Elephant. My mother is from Thailand, where elephants are royal animals. Growing up Mom would tell us to save our pennies, "in case a man came to our door selling elephants." At the time we thought it was the most absurd thing ever. Now I realize it was the Thai version of saving for a rainy day. Lets hope that we can buy an elephant for only five baht!
