You are the master of The Good Idea, Christophe. This image rocks. A round of applause to your wonderful wife, of course. I always look forward to reading your notes, you never disappoint.

I don't enjoy minimal challenge at all, as I said, I see no point letting the camera adjust anything for you: in my opinion it's the photographer's job. Shooting JPEG for example is just irrational. However, I am convinced processing skills are extremely important even if you don't spend hours in Photoshop, and I wanted to illustrate my point. .

The thumbnail image is almost a perfect representation of the original. I'm with Anita on this one, how much time do you actually have?? The time and effort you put in is astounding. Congratulations!

I'm only sorry I only gave you a 9. I wanted so badly to believe someone had created this for the challenge but just couldn't quite so I took a point off for photographing someone else's "art" :) What a fantastic job! Congratulations on the very well deserved blue.
eta I gave no 10's

Christophe, you did really well in this one. Your notes show how dedicated you are to the arts. Also thanks for clarifying how you had all the different shades of grey and black, to achieve that vignetting that I mentioned in my first comment, really cool stuff!

You have a wonderful wife, man she must really love you, great!

What a perfect example of how minimal editing can be almost exactly the same as expert. Only difference is the amount of processing done on either side of the shutter button! :) I hope people take note! ;) beautifully crafted. True artistry and of course, craftsmanship!
