Dustin Diaz Photography

This is Russ. I work with him every day at Twitter. I have no idea how we came about creating this shot, but it happened, and it will be remembered for a long time.

80/365. Queen of Apocalypse

Today we (Erin and Dave and myself) went on a day trip for Dim sum, then to the Santa Cruz mountains for wine tasting, a brief stop for coffee and tea, then lastly the beach for a mini photoshoot. In the end, it was quite an awesome day.

This photo is a combination of vivid Nikon colors and a vibrant flash. Extra contrast was added in post-production.
