I'm with Clinge. Looks very uncomfortable! But a great shot.

Wow. Looking at all these great tech photos, really makes one feel quite humble. Excellent capture!!

Panorama?

Amazing thing Would like to see that in action, nice shot GL

I wouln't like to sit on that chair for a whole day... But nice photo GL

Nice bokeh;

Congrats with a spot in the next round

Wow, this one is just gorgeous =)

beautiful

not sure what i'm looking at or where the "shine" is at... it does make for an interesting picture though. thanks for sharing

It might be shiny, but doesn't appear so in the photo

I'm not sure about the fisheye, either... but I love the peeling paint etc.

A different kind of "photo," ... but pretty funny!

I felt in love with this shot. Great photo

wonderful

Beautiful photo

I love the way the trees are illuminated. Campfire, I'm guessing?

Much better, no it really has some clout.

Not sure I like the distortion, I think I would have used a panorama to get the whole building in the image, great tones and focus.

Great subject, but it's too dark, no light tones.

Nice !

Totally gnarly

I love it!

Really nice range of values.

Did you have a special lens to get that amount of barrel distortion deliberately, or is that just the way your camera works?

Nice and clever !!!

I KNOW! It kind of reminds me of works by René Magritte.

Very nice. This reminds me of some artist, but I can't quite put my finger on who.

Indeed, creative entry = )

What did you DO to that poor army man!?!!!
Now who is going to protect the rest of the toys???

Very creative and original. The lighting is a bit too dark, but still a very imaginative entry!

Nice, but a little heavy on the HDR for my taste

Reminds me of a Van Gogh painting.

A bit over saturated on the colors, the sky is downright alien looking, those clouds are so blue!

nice shot author good luck

Nice Job Congrats on your Win

congrats Pat! You SO deserved it! Again, I don't know why, but I actually like this one better than the color one for some reason. Great job!

Great shot. Beautiful butterfly.

Great shot, what an interesting butterfly.

Great lines, but the pipe running across the top is distracting, I would crop the photo just below the pipe.

Lovely focal point and clarity, great composition and depth of field. Everything works so well together in this shot, not withstanding the gorgeous butterfly subject!

I bet this looks stunning in all its coloured glory

Your image doesn't need to be enormous, anything between 2.5mg and 3.5mg is plenty big enough.
Good luck

so was it basically this method used? http://www.pxleyes.com/video-tutorial/photoshop/3219/Using-Selective-Color.html

I just started working with photoshop so I don't know how yet. In Paint Shop Pro, I don't think they have that option. I'll have to go research how to do it.

Kellie for this contest you are allowed to use any type of selective color you would like, not just desaturation of channels.

can you please explain how you got that color to be desaturated in the rest of the photo, as I am supposing there must have been those colors in the rest of the photo.

Really nice color of the water at the bottom.

Very nice!

Very nice!
