The standing-room-only audience at the Historic Ashland Armory prepares for the celebration
Ben Baden raps about Dr. King
Sign language rapping
I should have taken a video of the lady doing the sign language while Ben Baden was doing his Martin Luther King Jr. rap. A single photo can’t capture how entertaining her performance was.

I have had cameras that have the capability to shoot in RAW for over four years now. However, every time I have taken RAW photos I have done nothing with them. I have tried to convert them to .jpg format without much success. Usually my out-of-camera .jpg looked better than my converted RAW image that I worked on for 5-10 minutes.
Today, however, I believe I have made a breakthrough. These .jpgs didn’t look very good no matter what I did in Photoshop to them so I struggled with the RAW images and finally came up with something better than the original. What do you think?

This second photo is of John Javna. He spoke at the Ashland Martin Luther King Jr Holiday Celebration. He is a major reason why we have ScienceWorks in Ashland. My son loves his Uncle John’s Bathroom Readers. On this occasion he delivered a message about the Ashland Food Project.
I took today’s photo today at the 24th Annual Ashland Martin Luther King Junior Holiday Celebration. I’ll post some more photos from today’s event over the coming week or two.
