I spotted this couple at a bar last weekend while I was roaming around looking for interesting people to shoot. Got a quick shot of them between turns in a pool game. I'm not crazy about the hinge and the glare on the freezer behind them, but otherwise I'm pretty pleased with how it came out.

Taken at ISO 400, f/4, 1/160, 30mm. Flash is off-camera +1.3 with a lightsphere.

I'm also including the original version -- I'm interested to hear what folks think of my post-processing. (Added saturation, a little vignetting, cleaned up front subject's skin.

Given that this wasn't a staged shot I'd say it came out real well. The edit looks pretty good to my eye, the increase in saturation is subtle but looks nice (brings out some of the color in the tattoos).
 
I agree. It has a much more pleasing look after the edit, especially the skin tones

The only thing, and this will probably be pointed out again at some point ( :p ) is the chopped off pinky.
