I would like to let everyone here know that I owe Dr. Confuser a huge apology. I sent him a personal message and it was a complete misunderstanding on my part. His reply to me spoke volumes about this integrity and his character and I would like to humbly apologize for my rude and obnoxious commentary. Thank you all

I deeply appreciate the CONSTRUCTIVE criticism that the image received. I am well aware of the "technical issues". It was an experiment that I thought came out much improved and rather interesting. I don't believe I have monitor issues, though. I had a print made of this and it came out very, very close to what I see. Remember that the web has an extremely tiny color space and the version I posted has all EXIF and MetaData stripped. Thanks again for the constructive input

As for the rest of you, I apologize for not posting images just like everyone else does. I prefer to try to be unique in what I do. If I wanted the image to appear like all of the others I see in here, I wouldn't bother! The point of doing this for me is to experiment and to try new things! If one is too scared to try anything new, then one shouldn't criticize those who do!

Originally posted by Dr.Confuser: I generally don't prefer listing editing steps as the title. If the photo won't stand alone, listing heroic editing steps doesn't raise my opinion of the photo. If it was a good subject, reshoot it without over exposing it. This is a photography contest, not a photoshop heroics contest.

I'm sorry I just don't get the point of such a mean spirited comment. I, personally, would appreciate it if you would just not bother to comment on my images in the future!

I think that sometimes we get a little carried away with what we think the challenge is. I like the photo and If I were a member when it came up to vote, I would have rated it high. Don't listen to the nay sayers and lecturers, do what moves you!

I wish I was a member when this one was in a contest. I like it. Don't let these snobs get to you. All their photos look alike. Yours is unique!

It's not that I disagree with the message, but it is a rather simple snap shot of an over the road truck
