What an amazing shot! I'm not normally a fan of fisheye type shots, but in this case, the extreme wide angle has enabled you to show both the remarkable buildings surrounding the event and the huge skeleton and some of the "audience"! If I'd voted in this challenge, I'd have given it the only 10 I've ever given!

Thanks to everyone for comments and support! :)

i've made very little post processing. Just converted from raw and a little bit of crop to avoid CA of the lens on the border + usm + canvans + resize. It was a PELENG 8mm. This lens is like a trip in the photographic stone age(but it is new and produced in Byelorussia)! no autofocus: everything is manual and made in full metal, no plastic parts! but its effect is amazing.. pure fun :D a kiss to my boyfriend that has bought it :*

it was a shame that this was in basic editing, i really was tempted to remove those crane in the background.. but doesn't matter.. it is already a joy to arrive third!

thanks everybody for comments and votes!

p.s.: HERE some info about the giants and the artist that have create it.
