My Image Your View: The Scorpion and the Grasshopper
Oct 8, 2018 11:36:26 #
This photo was taken last year in the Anza Borrego desert, which lies in east San Diego county. There are over 100 of these metal sculptures created by artist Ricardo Breceda, scattered throughout the desert.
It is very difficult to get photos of the sculptures without people "getting in the way”. ;-)
It’s a tad over-exposed, but nothing that can’t be fixed in post-processing. Both jpeg and dng files attached...
Please feel free to download the file in this thread. Then edit it any way that you feel is effective. You can make a composite, convert to black and white, or do alterations and adjustments. Then, when your edit is finished, you can post it in this thread. Edits will be accepted until 9 pm on Thursday. At that point we will start the voting. Thank you for your continued support of this weekly challenge.

When you're thirsty in the desert, some things are worth fighting over.

I thought it would look ok if they were in an alien world.
