Darren invented the "boner" log, not the "cannon log", that's some sort of new PC name for it....

No, and understood. I didn't add it to the story, and didn't feel the desire to remove it. It's a common misconception about that photo, and while I do retouch all portraits I don't ever go as far as that one looks, but it's also difficult to bring back realistic skin that isn't there, and I happen to quite like that photo in spite of or because of the look, not sure which...

@redrook actually if you take a good look at photo number 4 it's more out of focus than retouched that way. I had to do a lot of work on the eyes and helmet details to save it, further more that photos were not all chosen by the author, and they were placed to show several things. One of those is that women can be good looking and still ride as well as or better than guys, that has been a common misconception for years, and still is. That if you're a good looking woman you shouldn't get dirty or injured. As for the comments about fullbug's comment about the Mud Bunnies calendar, specifically Mud Bunnies is actually a women's mountain biking club, and they (women) produce their own calendar. Any of the mud bunnies can correct me on that if I'm wrong...
