Retouching Galore!

I love retouching. I almost love it as much as I love designing, and this shot required a lot of it.

This here is a bearing for a gas turbine (it's about the size of a truck tire). The pads on the inside of the bearing were in pristine condition, but the casing for the bearing itself needed a lot of work. You can see the before and after (as well as my ghetto photo setup) attached.
