What Would You Do?

This is a tread that goes on on another forum I frequent, it's kinda fun so I thought I'd try it out here.

This is how it works, I'll post up a humdrum photo once a week or so, feel free to download it and edit it in any way you like (change it, convert to B&W, add flying pigs, whatever) then post your result here (600 pix on the longest side plz)
Here's the first photo, click the thumb for the full res:

Nice edit, I like how you added a bit of drama to it, almost like a bomb went off in the background tongue

Ha ha, nice job!  My first response was "wow, he was able to pull all that detail out of the dark without pixelation?"  Then I looked back at my own photo and realized there in fact used to be city there (and I should have known that, one of those city lights was my house, lmao)

Very nice!

I can't wait to see what everyone else does tongue

More edits! I find this game really interesting smile

I think the way you style your edit says a lot about your personality.

I noticed that dancers first before I did the mirroring, but then the "face" came out.

I don't know how to describe that besides "really pretty"... the saturation boost gives it a true feeling of being there live!  ( and I know, I was there live smile )

Oh, I like it!  The orange lighting adds a nice eerie magic to the mood.  The windy swirls around the tower and the pixie tie it all together!

Great job, and thanks for keeping this lil thread alive tongue
