From the thumbnail I thought this had to be a new amusement park ride for thrill seakers. Now I understand the deeper (diaper?) thrill coming up. Enjoy it.

Really nice work with well thought out combination of filters. The result is quite impressive.

WTF indeed. That's the benefit of side challenges - to let it all hang out (I have to be more venturesome). Good double take pressing the range of possibilities with such an unusual sublect.

An unexpected assemblage in a natural landscape juicey to the eyes - well executed in mono/duotone.

Maybe a mistake for this could have been a contender. The hardest part is always how to stand out creatively. This pops with its unexpected crop, ripple patterns and color field background.

My "other" favorite kind of shot. The problem is always how to bring out the essential details and monochrome/duotone is frequently the solution. It certainly works here and the result is an image deserving a frame and placement providing frequent viewings.

I agree with Johanna's comment. It's an effective shot of the flower & earing which could be enhanced by eliminating the uncertain colors in the shadows.

Really engaging candid-portrait with clear context telling a story even without further explanation.

I like that you didn't crop this down to focus solely on the lightening & clouds. The full landscape is more natural and informative.

Well, I like all four of these perhaps for the unnatural atmosphere aided by the fisheye and flash. It all works together to add impact reminiscent of Diane Arbus even if purists might say the parallel is a bit shallow. Every one suits my taste if not my talent which is more limited and less creative. It's great to be able to appreciate it in other.
