Default Speed Challenge 25

OK, here's Speed Challenge 25. It will run until Monday, Dec 12.

Rules: 2 entries per participant. You have complete creative freedom to do whatever you desire to the picture PROVIDED the original photo is still an integral part of the finished project. Have fun!




Link to larger image for editing purposes if desired, but please reduce size before posting here (800X600 is generally a good overall size): http://www.never3putt.com/photos/sc25_large.jpg

If you and others choose NOT to submit, then he'll win by default and you will have gained nothing Remember, the goal of these speed challenges is to further our own knowledge and skills in Photoshop...having your work selected as winning is secondary. (And the win doesn't necessarily mean it's the best one...just the one that I (or whoever is running the challenge) selected. (Remember, I might not like ghosts )

SO GET YOUR ENTRY IN!!!! LOL

Here is my second entry.....THere is unknown to may that the lack of color we see throught the world is the work of the Queen of Blight...The only thing that stops her from ridding the world of Color once and for all are these three stones. THese stones are the Gaumet Stones and keep the tonal range at peace....once a year we see the queen walk to the edge of her domain and greet her Jailors.....She swallows her anger and returns to the 18% gray hilltops where Ansel Adams goes to have earl gray tea with her every afternoon ......

Well, we do these weekly ... some don't limit the number of entries ... the way this works is that whoevers entry is chosen, they supply the photo for the next challenge. Good to see some new players to our game!
