THE PHOTO:
Different view (and treatment) from the previous shot of the same subject, this time with his little doggie in frame. Great bit of street art.

POST PROCESSING:
Selective pseudo DOF added to this shot as I really didn't like the background. Other than that, black and white with some sharpening.

Sadly the wheel suffered some structural faults soon after opening and doesn't look like it will be in operation until 2010.

POST PROCESSING:
HDR in Photomatix, Lens Correction (I know it may look slightly on a lean, but I swear it's an optical illusion), USM, Black and White by channel, Dodge and Burn.

This is a reverse angle from the same spot as the last shot, taken earlier in the morning - pre-sunrise. The Etihad Stadium (previously the Telstra Dome) and the Melbourne CBD in the background.

Expect a few more shots like this, especially as it's near my new home in Melbourne.
