Some before and after images.
The first picture is the original, the second is after photoshop.

I really, really like that gas station one.

Those are some good ones Blakr, The gas station and the blue angels are great.

LMAO ... I scrolled up from the bottom before I saw the note about before and after; when I saw the Blue Angels it kind of boggled me.

Thanks SF and VaDirt. The vintage gas station image turned out pretty good. Giving a picture the vintage look is a favorite of mine.
Here's one that I entered in a contest at worth1000.com. It got a 4th place.
The first picture is the original which the website posted for the contest. We had 48 hours to photoshop the image.
The second is after photoshop.
The woman in the background is there for two reasons. First, it typically depicts a woman's role or standing in those times. Not really part of the subject, and off in the background.
Second, she's blocking the trash can in the original picture. lol

You were starring at the picture with the Blue Angels and couldn't figure out what I did to the picture? lol

My thought processes tend to be more of the literal bent rather than the virtual bent - probably the reason why I am so fascinated with magic shows and sleight of hand. The small logical part of my brain knows its misdirection and smoke and mirrors but that is usually quelled by the WOW! factor. To me, Seigfried & Roy really did disappear an elephant right before my eyes (front row center seat).

My first thought was that the pull up would have been spectacular, my second thought was "Why is that lady so intent on her FanView scanner that she doesn't even notice."
