Really good job with the post processing on this one. Great composition. All of the lines and the interplay of light and shadow make this very interesting visually.

No, but I wish I had. I wasn't thinking of the challenge when I shot this : ) Thanks for the idea Waddy, I think I will stop here again next time I'm passing.

Looking at the orij and the finished image, I would define USM as "User Supplied Magic" in this case.

This one bends the frame too! I think that the one that you entered was the best of these by far. This one is close, but just does not have the golden "honey" colors that are in the "Diagonal" entry.

yep looks wonky to me too, and yes, i wasn't all that impressed with this shot when I first posted it. But as the week went on, it kinda grew on me...thanks
