Used the lightroom preset – “Genera Auto Tone”. Shot using ISO 100, 200mm, f/4.0, 1/45 sec, handheld 70-200mm F/4.0 IS in manual mode

This picture was shot at the Owego County Fair. I used the manual mode with ISO 400, 55mm, F/5.6, 1/60 sec. Basic kit lens was used and cropped the picture to achieve this. Increased the contrast and brightness in the lightroom. In the flickr I used the picnik to increase the sharpness and apply the frame

Its been a while since I posted the photo. Life has been busy lately. Here is the photo captured from the 4th of July 2010. The fireworks at the Highland, Endwell, NY park has been amazing. I have uploaded other photos in Flickr. You are welcome to have a look at them.

This photo in particular was captured using ISO100, 20mm, F/11, at 6 secs on a tripod. Increased the saturation and played with temperature settings. I had achieved the sharpness from the raw photo itself. I tried to provide very very slight increase in the sharpness to achieve this result.
