Today, while shopping, we saw few of these Cyclamen for sale.
I knew there were few shots with them somewhere, so after getting back home I looked for it in a couple of folders till I finally found them.
These two captures were particularly underexposed, so after editing them I ended up with a couple of very cool and contrasty black and white images, but with a lot of banding!
For a brief moment it crossed my mind to hit the delete button and pick something else to edit, but then it stroke me.. I could use my "brush the hell out of it" technique.
So I did, I brushed the hell out of the nasty bands and came up with these two.

It completely changed things around and saved the day.
If life gives you banding, brush it!
