After a quick glance at small thumbnail i thought the man's calves were the backside of a sexy female,,,
that was a rude awakening.

There are many stories in that photo, most of them not very pleasant. But it is necessary to see and be confronted with the honesty exhibited.

dutchmaster: no photoshopping (sharpened, vignetted and levelled in Lightroom), but the image was made from 3 exposures to capture detail in the both the places where the Sun shone and detail in the shadow. Our eyes have a greater effective dynamic range than a camera, so combining exposures actually gets one closer to our perception of an image.
