Thank you for this honor!
I have worked with this stitched photo off and on since I took it in 2014 and though I’ve managed to process it to a technically ok look it has always lacked that extra oomph. So, I’m counting on the creative minds here to further my education.
Feel free to download this photo to your computer. Then you can edit it any way that you want to. Almost anything goes. Black and white conversion, solarization, filters, textures, adjustments, composites, crops, alterations. Whatever you think looks good. Then, when you are finished with your edit, post it in this thread. We will accept edits until Thursday at 9 pm. Then we will go to voting. No edits will be accepted after 9 pm on Thursday. Have fun.

You did a great job with this stitched photo Rich. The blends are very good. I went in brighten it up some, leveled the blue color in the sky, then removed some wires. I didn't like the road but without it you wouldn't know the area is around Trout Lake. I decided to hide some of the road with two lovers. Hope it looks believable.

A little over the top, OK maybe a lot. But that darn acid rain does a number on Mother Nature.

I tried to take a daytime scene and move it toward night. Moon is not realistic; but it is dramatic. Hope you like it.

I liked this image so much, I really hated to do anything to it. And what I did probably didn't improve it any. I tried to take out the wires, but my hands are so shakey I didn't do a very good job. And I hated to take out the small bird! I did add some NIK detail that put a bit more colour into the water. I do like that. But it may now be a bit over the top in saturation. And, you'll have to do a DL to see the actualy colours because my old PS doesn't do sRGB.
