On a recent road trip with some friends to a Photoshop World Conference in Las Vegas, NV, we stopped at the Hoover Dam. If you have not been, I recommend it highly. It is an astonishing and mesmerizing site! A new highway is under construction near the dam--in the background in the photo to the right. The construction is fascinating to see, though I’m not sure I’d ever be able to drive across that bridge, once it is finished (this tiny photo does not capture how HIGH that highway is!).

Naturally, I found some rust to photograph while there. The image above is the Photoshopped result of one of those photos. I am not sure I am quite finished with this image. I would like to cool it down just a tiny bit, without losing the mix of vibrant colors.
