I used LucisArt, but any HDR type filter would work. Jack up the saturation, throw a minor paint filter at it (dry brush, then back it off to about 20%).

I don't know if all that is legal in Advanced though. I was really hoping for Expert for this challenge.


Thanks Ken...it's Perfect. :) I've never had the heart to crop it since it just "works" for me as is, though of course you are right the half person is too distracting and it should be cropped.

In answer to Marks questions, this is an intentional community where my daughter lives, in La Plata, MO. The photo was taken during the group's consensus meeting. The person in the apron is the "cook" for the day. They take turns at everything. They also live without electricity, use only hand tools, and no fossil fuels. You can see the candle stand for a night time light source on the wall in the back.

Unfortunately, this challenge is a few weeks late...I was just there at the end of August...and won't be traveling back until next year.

Here's another one from there which is somewhat Rockwellian from last year:

What do you guys think?

Yes, with a little crop and editing - for sure.

These two, particularly the top one may be modern day Rockwellian??

YES to both. The top one obviously would score higher.


Both are great...and Rockwellian...and the top one just "Rocks".

I like it! Rockwell captured every day moments, and especially kids being kids.


Love that one!
