Altered Cliff Dwellings ~ Tucson, Arizona

I don't even know what to say about this one!
Except I sure am getting a self-education in Photoshop.
I do love working in the 'shop though!

Here is the original photograph.

There is an amusing story to this shooting.
I went out 2 days ago to shoot this very interesting office building.
I arrived with my rusty tripod and trusty camera.
Went to put the camera to my eye when I heard a voice say,
"What cha' doin, buddy?"
I replied, "I'm going to take some photographs of this building."
This hardhat, tie wearing guy says "No your NOT!"
I say "Excuse me?"
He retorts, "You have no business here, this is private property,
now get out of here!"
I quip back, "OK."
As I'm leaving I turn around
and respond with "You sure are rude, aren't you?"
Well with in a few minutes we are discussing this situation
with Oro Valley police.
This rube says that I might be engaged in "industrial espionage'!
Holy Moly and Heby Geby, I going to the Big-House upstate!
Anyway the whole thing worked out ok.
The cops laughed, I grinned, and Mr. Hardhat-Tie Guy
went away grumbling.
Guess what, I went back Sunday morning when no one was around.
After all that, the building was not worth all that trouble to shoot anyway!
So I turned it on end in the final image!
