> post editing - keep it low, the idea is to use your camera to create, not photoshop. How much is low? I usually add a blur to my photos ([http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8326904/](http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8326904/)) is that to much? I am in either way. ---

are you serious or are you being sarcastic, ruski? if you’re serious- thanks! I didn’t put much thought into it though. not a very creative shot. a little rearrangement, but i thought it was pretty boring. just some cool colors. ---
